I've recently come across two different "brick construction systems".

First is X Blocks Construction system, I saw an ad for this in Ultimate

googled X-blocks but didn't have any luck. It says this product will be
available at TRU and Sears Wishbook.

Second is C3 Construction, I saw an ad for this line in Previews, May 2004,
pages 459, 460, 461. This is DC Comics based, Superman and Batman. It's scaled
to the Minimates figures and looks like a Lego clone. It is "compatible with
other leading brick-style building toys." I googled this also with better
results:

I believe the x-blocks are made by 'popular jegutes' (sp?) a spanish company
that made exin castles, looking at the box, the bricks, & stair elements seem to
be the same as the exin pieces
