I think the previous poster may be a.k.a. “MK-Ultra”(?) on bricklink. He’s trolling for me here because I mentioned something about clones on the bricklink forum yesterday and I guess that bothered him and Mike P (surprise!). Like some weird TLC zealot, MK has come here to burn a cross upon our clone lawn.

Hail Satan!

Yes all hail Satan. :) The cross burning and zealot referneces were a nice touch. :)

Seriously. I’m not burning clones. I just think they do not have a large a place on lugnet or Bricklink as Hop-Frog would like. Lego sites dedicated to Lego are not largely open to clones. Its just the nature of the beast (mainly I, Satan). I see the draw of clones and appreiate the economics of clones. I would like to see some MB components in Lego. Some are very cool. I won’t buy MB’s though. MB’s spread like cancer if exposed to Lego. :)

I guess I’m just one of those idiots overly fixated on brand loyalty. But after all, they’re my toys and I’ll play with them however I like. :0P
