  Re: OK...this is kinda' neat...
 
(...) I'll give you "kinda". But as an owner of a Wrangler, I can tell you that I'd: 1. Never buy another Best-Lock set again (quality simply not up to snuff) <sorry for the non sequitor> 2. Rather build my own out of LEGO (LLC had some cool (...) (23 years ago, 1-Jan-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

  Re: LOTR intelli-blox
 
(...) They have (or had) them at Target, for 30% off as of this morning. If you are able to find any they will probably be near the Megabloks and K'nex. Mine only had a couple of Buckleberry ferries (for $13.90) left today. BTW the person who told (...)

  LOTR intelli-blox

(...) Yeeeek! Best Lock will suck at best. Those Best Lock sets look great but are not very good in the brick quality dept. -- Hop-Frog (23 years ago, 27-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: Careful what you wish for: clone LOTR blocks sighted
 
Fellowship of the Ring blocks are clearanced at Target today. I found them at TRU in the Action Figure area, $20 for the small sets. Target had them next to the clone brands across from Lego. $10.40 for the small sets (reg $15.) (Battle at (...) (23 years ago, 26-Dec-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

  Zero-G minifigs
 
Hey, everyone! Levitating nuts & bolts is fine, but I would rather be levitating minifigures: (URL) I did it: There is a building system called "MAGZ", which utilizes magnets and steel balls to build geometric shapes. I took the magnets (they are (...) (23 years ago, 19-Dec-01, to lugnet.build, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands) ! 
 
  Re: Fortress TRU
 
Oops, my bad. I meant Woodbridge (the one next to Pearl). I know before they had them with the other LEGO, but they've now completely moved them into the (normally abandoned) HP section.

  Re: Fortress TRU
 
(...) There's a TRU in Edison? The Wal-Mart in Piscataway has them with the regular merch. Same with the rest of the TRUs I've seen, save that one next to Pearl up by the 1/9 interchange. I managed to get some Gringott's! :) But they most (...) (23 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

  Re: Fortress TRU
 
(...) I have seen the HP LEGO both with the HP stuff and with the LEGO stuff. Then there was Walmart when it first came out, in it's own aisle stand. In my shopping over the past few days I've seen very little HP LEGO. Frank (23 years ago, 17-Dec-01, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

  Fortress TRU
 
Today I understand why Fortress TRU has a security battallion: Holiday shopper crowds in Times Square. Fortress TRU is the new flagship store in New York.
