  Well why not?  They've already copied MegaBloks' 8x8 plate!  For those 
unfamiliar with the MegaBloks set in question, I'll post a pic of it 
tonight.  The similarities are extensive and undeniable (though admittedly 
there's a certain "look" demanded by the theme).  It amuses me greatly that 
LEGO is now effectively operating as a clone of a clone. 
 
  Thanks for the link and the info!

  |  G'day all, having seen images of next years sets (this years hopefully for us in OZ...the wonders of the international time zones) I have been wondering if Lego have been nicking ideas off Mega Blocks. This has been prompted by the 'action' sets (...)   (24 years ago, 31-Dec-01, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.general)
