(...) Glad to! (...) I very much like the change of landscape, though I have to say the brick adhesion isn't perfect. Enough holds together to keep the ground from popping apart, but they quite aren't up to LEGO standards. Still not as bad as most (...) (21 years ago, 5-Sep-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

They're clones, but they're cool, and I'd hate for all my LUGNET friends to miss out on a rare chance to acquire these sets: (URL) out of my price range, and I don't know the seller, so I have no vested interest in these items.

My local Target has the MEGABLOKS Power Rangers "Zord" sets on sale for $5.50, down from $7.99, so I bought the Dolphin Zord. The main (and obvious) shortcoming of the set is the entirely juniorized head element, but the set still has a piececount (...) (21 years ago, 5-Sep-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

(...) Hey, nifty in progress shots. Thanks for sharing! So tell us about those MB Dragons baseplates, how's the adhesion of brick to them? Are they sturdy? They seem interesting in appearance and profile and a nice potential change from the very few (...) (21 years ago, 5-Sep-03, to lugnet.pirates, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

Hi, I saw advertisement of BetterBlocks™ 1375 Combo Kit, which is similar to LEGO, but the units are round on QVCUK.com, some time ago (y.2000). I take interest in this product, but QVC does not sell it at a present time. Will it be possible to (...) (21 years ago, 3-Sep-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
