Hi,

I saw the Megabloks DRAGONS sets at TRU here in Canada this morning.
Although, I am basically a LEGO train and town fan, my boys are Castle fans.
I think Megabloks has a keeper here.  The minifig figures look great and the
pieces are very interesting and can see how a castle builder could really
enjoy these pieces.  Although, I did not buy any right away, I can see this
moving into our home soon.  We tend to be LEGO snobs (oh don't let that MB
pollute our supply ;) ) but Megabloks seems to have a great idea here.  TRU
even featured it at the store entrance aisle end.

bricks are interesting, like slump-stone in light grey.  The pre-fab stuff
works with my LEGO bricks (if I had more of these I'd be tempted to replace
some windows on my Brickshelf castle).  Overall, very promising and likely
will draw some of my LEGO money away :)
Mega Blocks is really posing a threat with the quality, design and price of
their newest sets.
Thumbs way up!!

Used a pair of $5.00 off coupons on the medium ones. I didn't see the big set, but (...) (22 years ago, 2-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
