Hey:
Does anyone know if Stikfas accessories work with Lego? Some accessories
would be too large, obviously -- but some looked like they might work.

They look like the would, but they don’t. I’ve picked up a few (I also
customize action figures, and I always saw them more as Customizable Action
Figures than as a LEGO Clone), and in my experience about the only parts of the
equipment that a LEGO Minifig hand can firmly grip is the balls on the ends of
some of the Samurai weapons (which, it should be noted, are interchangable with
the ball-joints used to hold the Stikfas figure together, so your Stikfas can
indeed run around with a Naginata-hand...if you really want him to...). The
weapon shafts/hilts are just a bit too thin to be firmly gripped, and the
Military guns are downright sloppy. You can get a Stikfas to hold a LEGO
weapon, but it’s extremely tight and I’d be worried about stressing the plastic
in the hand. My take on them is they’re neat and all, but since you have to cut
them from the sprues, and they’re physically difficult to assemble (especially
the articulated fingers on the robot with the evil teddy bear), I’d say they’re
not really suitable for casual fans like LEGO bricks are (darn near anyone can
build something from a LEGO set without chopping off a finger), and they’re not
really interchangable with LEGO sets. I doubt they were even intended to be.
Remember, these were invented/produced by a company called Mister Bany J.
Hasbro just has US marketting rights.
