(...) Thanks Dave! but I fear I'll be a disappointment - all my clone parts (most of which have come hidden in ebay or BL lots) are consigned to the "curiousities" bin. Of course if anyone wants to pay shipping, I'll gladly send it to you but I only (...) (20 years ago, 22-May-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

Does anyone happen to own any MEGABLOKS catalogs from the early to mid 90's, specifically including the Dinosaur sets from that period? I used to have one or two, but I can't find them and fear that they're lost for good. Also, does anyone have a (...) (20 years ago, 18-May-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

Hi all, As I announced earlier, I am going to make a LEGO mosaic. A trip to Legoland is planned later this year, I hope to find there all the required pieces to finish this project.

I was in Brook's drug store in Keene, NH 2nite & found 2 of 3 new $4 MB sets: a yellow space fighter, & a lime green dune buggy; they didn't have the third set (shown on the back of the boxes), a red mini sub. Cool sets Jeff (20 years ago, 6-May-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

about (URL) good deal at KBToys.com. The MSRP for each of these sets is about $20.00, so this is a noteworthy deal. The designs are very cool, IMO exceeding anything mech-like offered by LEGO to date. Dave! (20 years ago, 5-May-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

With the "grip lock" on the sides do they sit flush next to a LEGO brick, is there a gap, or can it not sit directly next to a LEGO brick using the studs? For me at least, (...)
