  How good does it have to be?
 
TLC has an exotic type of plastic I've never seen outside of Lego® products. I have to look at the studs on the Tyco® I have before I know what it is. I can compare certain Mega Blocks to some AMT Model kits I have. I've never felt a Best-Lock, but (...) (22 years ago, 11-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: Mega Bloks RC set 9616
 
(...) ***snip of tech review*** (...) To be fair, though--the Battle Bloks are not at all representative of MegaBloks overall trend re: juniorization. One need only compare piece counts of a $20 MegaBloks set vs. a $20 LEGO set; MegaBloks typically (...) (22 years ago, 11-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: Cool new clone mini-figs.
 
(...) ..snip... (...) ..snip... (...) ..snip... (...) I finally broke down and bought two of these Dragons War Chest's too. One silver and one gold. The figs were ok. I like the fact they are a little bigger than lego figs... I can see them as an (...) (22 years ago, 11-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Cool new clone mini-figs.
 
Hello, [rant warning] Well I finally found the new Dragons sets at my local target but the really interesting thing is the new Best-Lock fig packs. (I noticed Hop-Frog mentioned these already but said he did not get them yet.) Anyway I purchased 3 (...) (22 years ago, 11-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Mega Bloks RC set 9616
 
I recently purchased this set for the sole purpose of examining its R/C technology - I have an ongoing interest in the area of Lego R/C as some on lugnet may know. The R/C system itself is clunky. A large box holding batteries, receiver and motors - (...) (22 years ago, 10-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: DRAGONS ROCKS!!! Puns unavoidable, not truly sorry :o)
 
I totally agree. I got just the one tin myself though. These Dragons are just not very "brick-like." I wanted to like them, but no -- blech! -- Hop-Frog (22 years ago, 10-Aug-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: DRAGONS ROCKS!!! Puns unavoidable, not truly sorry :o)
 
(...) I picked up a couple tins of these Mega Bloks Dragons guys last night. I got six warriors, six shields, 16 funky weapons, and two little mini sets with about 20 grey 2x4 bricks and some specialty wall pieces, for about $10. Despite the above (...)

  Re: Best-Lock still sucks
 
(...) Well, shut my mouth! Best-Lock is making a minifigure pack! I saw it at Target the other day. It had some camoflage, navy, and army minis and even included a brown-skinned fellow. The set also includes a pair of M-16 type rifles in silver. (...) (22 years ago, 8-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: 20 Years of TLC's Frustration with "LEGOS"
 
And you are responding to a thread that is about one years old, and doing so just to hurl criticism. What is that worse than? -- Richard (22 years ago, 8-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: 20 Years of TLC's Frustration with "LEGOS"
 
Ahh... How did a discussion on little plastic blocks, turn into a discussion of religion? Geez... You people are worse than Trekkies. (22 years ago, 8-Aug-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
