Also, there is hope for compatibility with normal bricks. It turns out that
the stud spacing on Nano bricks is exactly 2/3 that of normal bricks:
Note: For the following, plate and brick denote height and stud
denotes width.
Combined with the 2 Nano plates equals 1 Nano stud equals 1 Nano brick rule
and the 5:5:6 relationship of normal bricks we get:
- 3 Nano plates equals 1 normal stud
- 3 Nano bricks equals 2 normal studs
- 6 Nano plates equals 5 normal plates
- 3 Nano bricks equals 5 normal plates
So, its conceivable that Mega Bloks could make adapter bricks that make
connecting one system to the other possible. That would be interesting!

At the very least using tiles one could brace an nano-scale construct in a
standard-scale construct. That would allow for some really interesting detailed
interal componets. I am far more interested in this line now that I know this.
Thanks for the heads up. Now lets hope Mega Bloks produces a good navy ship or
even better, a bucket (with lots of grey gosh darnit) in nano-scale.

| I just recently picked up one of the new Nano System sets (Rescue Cutter) and I have to say these miniature blocks are rather cool. I especially like the plates, they're just so "dainty". The 1x2 and 2x2 bricks with studs on the side for SNOT work (...) (20 years ago, 18-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
