Hi Rich: I replied to your email, but it seems that Excite.mail sometimes has trouble mailing to Hotmail addresses. If you received it, let me know! If not, let me know, and I'll try to re-send it. Thanks, Dave! (21 years ago, 22-May-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.people)

(...) Hop-Frog has made some good points already (and incidentally gave me a little reminder to keep the clone-page project moving forward!) but here are a few additional thoughts. To my knowledge, Ritvik/MegaBloks has never issued a formal (...) (21 years ago, 19-May-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

I was a little too quick to post there. I should have added Mecha. I have several MB mecha sets I could scan instructions from also. -- Hop-Frog (21 years ago, 19-May-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) I don't think there is anything out there at this precise moment. There had been a clone page a while ago and Dave Schuler is the current keeper of the flame (and files), but no joy there for now. He and I were discussing putting a clone scan (...)

Hiya A quick question (sorry, if it's been asked before) : does anyone know if there are any websites that have scans of Mega Bloks instructions - the equivalent of Brickshelf? I quite like some of their military designs (the tanks etc) .. but I (...) (21 years ago, 19-May-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

I find it altogether interesting – they're putting in a great effort to fill in the gaps where Lego has left off... these Dragon lines in the stead of castle, the military line (which I am awed by every time I pass it by in a store) and so forth.

(...) I've been lamenting that recently myself, but now that I think about it, MegaBloks has been using large, juniorized pieces for years. Their Western and Fantasy sets from ~1996 used 16x8x8 house such as is shown here: (URL) was also a large (...) (21 years ago, 22-Apr-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

No problem for me ;-) Is it just me, or do others think that Mega-blox is increasingly going down the route of large, specialised pieces that we (...)

(...) If I were looking for that part, I would look for the keyword "gate". So I think you'd better have that word in the name. "Gate checkpoint with yellow stripes" is not so bad I think. Perhaps "Checkpoint gate with yellow stripes" is better. (...) (21 years ago, 17-Apr-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(URL) is a checkpoint barrier from the Hangar 18 set in the Alien Agency series. The filename is c010113a.dat owing to its dimensions, but I'm stuck for a good part name.
