  Re: Military Brick Gallery
 
Hello Hongki, I am visiting South Korea in June and I would be interested in finding some of these sets ... can you tell me, are they widely available in department stores, like Lotte? Or, would I have to go to a specialist store to buy them? Thanks (...) (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.build.military, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: Instruction scans?
 
Hiya Thanks for the info folks. I will try the Mega Bloks customer service request thing, although I suspect it is a US-only service (although I didn't see it written anywhere). In the meantime, if anyone has a scan of the instructions for the (...) (21 years ago, 25-May-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  *NEW* LEGO brick-ish Transformers by Hasbro -- What's the deal?
 
Hello all, Well I was just doing a quick read of online news. I had not been to www.allspark.com, a Transformers fan site, recently so I brought up the page. After scrolling down I stumbled across this header: Wave 5 Product Catalog Scans - May 22 (...)

  Question for Richard Parsons
 
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)

  Re: Instruction scans?
 
(...) 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)
 
  Re: Instruction scans?
 
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)
 
  Re: Instruction scans?
 
(...) 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 (...)

  Instruction scans?
 
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)
 
  Re: Compatible?
 
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.

  Re: Compatible?
 
(...) I've been lamenting that recently myself, but now that I think about it, MegaBloks has been using large, juniorized pieces for years.
