  Re: new MB sets
 
(...) That's a neat design. Tyco had the corresponding inverted slope--I'll have to compare them once I've gotten my hands on the MEGABLOKS version. You know, this would be a great time for you to jump into the wild world of LDraw-compatible clone (...) (21 years ago, 26-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

Third, is a new catalog included, or is it the same one from late 2003 (i.e., does not include the Warthog itself?) Fourth, you're a fink for finding this set (...)

  Review of Alien Agency sets at Millionaire Playboy
 
(I just find this stuff, I don't name the sites) (URL) somewhat more favorable review of a different MB line: (URL) site is not a LEGO site, it's a toy site. Contrast those reviews with this one: (URL) ) Hope that helps. (21 years ago, 19-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

Anyway, the "minifig" link is to the patent document for the original MEGABLOKS (...) (21 years ago, 18-Mar-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
