  Re: My new Oxfords
 
(...) Holy smoke! Did you order these direct from Etamiya?!?!? I couldn't find them on the site, but I'll order more immediately if they're available directly from the site! Hop-Frog! Are you reading this!?!?! Dave! (22 years ago, 23-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  My new Oxfords
 
Yup- got my order in I ordered the tank and the smallest Double Dragon set from Etamiya.com. Heres some pics- www.brickshelf.com/c...gi?f=25474 and heres what I think- OVERALL IMPRESSION Not bad- the boxes were smaller than I expected, but unlike (...)

  Re: Love this! (was Re: Some Oxford pics)
 
(...) It's funny you should mention that--a few years back LEGO probably would never have dreamed of marketing such diabolical creatures as vampires and werewolves, not to mention the fruits of man's experiments in reanimation, yet all of these now (...)

  New MB Firetruck at TRU
 
I just spotted a new ProBuilder Firetruck on the shelf, listed as a "TRU Exclusive." It's $49.99 US and has about 1100 pieces. It's big! I don't have many details yet, but at a glance it includes new hinge panels, doors, windshield, and ladder (...) (22 years ago, 22-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

  Re: New Dragons Set!
 
Drool.... I like the dragons stuff, I will pick this up, but imagine this... if lego created a set like this, all those figs, and 2 different armies, one can dream. e. (...) (22 years ago, 22-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: Some Oxford pics
 
The M-16s remind me. Lego figs can hold Stikfas accessories. Each Stikfas action figure kit comes with about 10 guns. The scale is wrong, but the looks are not bad. Hasbro is marketing Stikfas in the US now. I bought one at Toy Tokyo NYC for $10. (...) (22 years ago, 22-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: Love this! (was Re: Some Oxford pics)
 
(...) Thanks for sharing these picks. I just happened to catch them on Bricklink which led me to this group. After reading your review I'll have to pick some of these sets up in Korea. The catalog scan is of great help since I'll know what to look (...) (22 years ago, 21-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: NEat-o keen!
 
(...) Is the stadium produced by Best-Lock as well? $40 aint that bad for a set of that size. (22 years ago, 21-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.loc.us.ne)
 
  Re: NEat-o keen!
 
(...) Actually, I believe the Jeep set is by Best-Lock, an England based clone maker. They have a Jeep license. (URL) (22 years ago, 21-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.loc.us.ne)
 
  Love this! (was Re: Some Oxford pics)
 
(...) Thanks for the trouble dude, these look really interesting. And the quality is entirely ok. Gotta get some of these. I particularly like the beret dudes. I'd love to put a squad of these guys into a (defenceless) Lego town, takeover style, (...) (22 years ago, 21-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  NEat-o keen!
 
I was playing with the Google catalogs beta I just posted about here: (URL) I came across these: (URL) went to school in Seward, so found these pretty funny. Also, I remember a thread about this Jeep set from Japan...obviously they do licensed sets (...) (22 years ago, 21-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.loc.us.ne)

Here's a scan of some of the unique elements from the Oxford Tank I've mentioned previously: (URL) well as a few snippets from the catalog that came with it: (URL) Dave! FUT OT.Clones (22 years ago, 20-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.build.military)  
 
  Re: Still fiddling with HES Sirius
 
(...) I especially like the angular mounting for the Starfuries, and the catwalk for the pilots is very dramatic. (And, no doubt, nervewracking when under fire). (...) I look forward to seeing it then. Cheers Richie Dulin (22 years ago, 16-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Airfix Betta Bilda
 
Does anybody collect Airfix Betta Bilda (a vintage 50s brand of building toy)? (22 years ago, 15-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: New Dragons Set!
 
(...) I already tried the website. Mega Bloks does not update very regularly. Thanks anyway though. -Mike Petrucelli (22 years ago, 15-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: New Dragons Set!
 
(...) Unfortunately, no - it was a gift! I went to the Megabloks website to look for it, but the version of flash they use is newer than what is available for Linux, so I can't go looking. (22 years ago, 15-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Review of Oxford set OCM 15000
 
This is the tank model recently available though a Hong Kong-based seller on Ebay. The kit is, in a word, fantastic. I would say categorically that if this brand were widely available in the US, and if it had any name recognition, it would easily (...) (22 years ago, 15-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: Still fiddling with HES Sirius
 
(...) Mmmmm. Tried a bunch of different ways. Next best is to dangle them below a docking arm, underneath the ship, which is cool, but means the ship can't land. I'm not really attached to landing per se, but since the ship has to sit around on a (...) (22 years ago, 15-Sep-02, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
