(...) Yeah, but Lar, if you have seen the set you know it's a bargain on sale. The Cadillac of the Skies, Baby! But since we all know that clone sets just fall apart and aren't worth even a penny...I give you this: (URL) -- Hop-Frog (21 years ago, 17-Sep-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

(...) You're insane, Dave! I can't even think of a LEGO set that (while it's still in current production) is worth almost 400 USD. Not even the ISD. But you think a MB set is? That's crazy! (Ok, OK, I know, that was a typo) (21 years ago, 17-Sep-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) They're MEGABLOKS, or at least they look exactly like a MEGABLOKS element. I have that same part in red, yellow, and pink. They came in 400-count bulk buckets a few years ago. (...) Don't fight it--you'll only make it worse. Dave! (21 years ago, 16-Sep-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

I don't think its Lego as there is no part number but the plastic feels of a higher quality than most clones. (URL) really like them so I hope they are Lego. I might even consider using them as clones as long as I have some kind of de-contamination (...) (21 years ago, 16-Sep-03, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

These don't appear to be mirrored on the KBToys website, or at least not at the same level of clearance. My local store has most of the Alien Agency line on at least 50% discount, as well as a few Blok-Bots. The ProBuilder Mustang, which originally (...)

I have a complete pastel castle (pastle? castel?) set and a basic "universal" building set, and both are of quite high quality, at least (...)

Once I've got them properly laid out and have them mated to each other, they're rather solid -- it seems to be a matter of making sure enough studs are devoted to the joints, and that's a simple enough adjustment -- well (...)

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.
