(...) Sorry to psych you out, and sorry about the troublesome links. I'm at work, so I don't know how the links would work with dial-up, but that might be the problem. Anyway, the "minifig" link is to the patent document for the original MEGABLOKS (...) (22 years ago, 18-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

(...) Could you elaborate on what this is. Those links have crashed every browser I tried. (Must not be dial-up friendly) The name 'galaxy theme battleship' really has me curious. Might this be related to the new smaller scale stuff? If the price to (...) (22 years ago, 18-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

(...) The actual quality isn't as bad as some people seem to think, but there has indeed been juniorization in MEGABLOKS--almost as long as in LEGO sets. Unlike LEGO, MEGABLOKS usually (though not always) offsets the juniorization with generous (...) (22 years ago, 18-Mar-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

Found these while browsing: (2 URLs) Lion> (URL) theme battleship> I'm looking for more, though the database isn't the most search-friendly. I figure there must be more, but I haven't found them yet. Dave! (22 years ago, 10-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

(...) Well, I finally found the article again. It was from the Toronto Star. Here is the excerpt: While Danish-based Lego announced last month a new line of big blocks, after saying it would declare a loss in 2003, Mega Bloks will introduce this (...)

WOW! I haven't heard anything about this until I read your post. I searched on the Mega Blocks website and couldn't find anything interesting. Where did you hear about this? Erik! (22 years ago, 9-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

My local TRU has the entire line of BTR sets (Transformers, GI Joe, and Tonka) on 50% clearance. Well, they say 50%, but sets that were $12.98 are not $6.98, etc. Obviously, this speaks poorly of BTR’s outlook, but it affords the opportunity to (...)

(...) I know--I'm my own worst enemy. (...) Alas, funds are ubertight at the moment, and so I only made half-hearted bids. If I'd known how low the final price was to be, I probably would have pitched as high as a sawsky for the Dumptruck. I'm (...) (22 years ago, 8-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
