   Just wanted to let everyone know, I ran into my local Meijers today and found the Nano line by Mega Bloks. I picked up a 5.99 set the 5901 red convertable. I like the set a lot. It has a lot of fun pieces and makes a really cool model. It also comes with a display stand that has a magnifying glass attached as well as 3 large road plates to connect to other sets. The pieces connect together more like LEGO than Mega Bloks and stay together suprisingly well. I would hightly recommend picking up a couple of these. I am going to get the rest when I order them direct from Mega.

If I may say so, Bill’s site has pics and info on a variety of current and forthcoming releases and is well worth checking out.

Bummer about the pushed-back release date for the Enterprise, though...

   I am a little ashamed buying it at Meijers because I carry Mega Bloks products at my on line store. Now that I’ve seen it I will probably be carrying them. If you want pictures I can take some and put them on my Brickshelf account. Let me know.

I would love to see pics and scans! I haven’t seen the sets in my area yet, but lately my local stores have been about three or four weeks behind the curve.

Thanks for the news!

Dave!

(...) It's on megabloks own website... and wow, I never knew about these. Slopes that are 2/3 height instead of a full brick?! Yes!! Talk about flexibility... let's hope Lego is listening?? (URL) (20 years ago, 15-Jul-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
