| | | | | Going cloneless
|
| Well, after dabbling with Mega Bloks and Intelli-Blox on and off for the past decade I've decided to abandon efforts to cross-brand my building. I've debated the relative merits of clone use back and forth for some time. I can't say it's any sort of (...) (20 years ago, 15-Nov-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

|
| (...) Doesn't this have more to do with MegaBloks being a hometown company than a marketing failure on the part of TLC? I wouldn't expect a big MegaBloks display in a toy store in Billund. Marc Nelson Jr. (20 years ago, 15-Nov-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

|
| Well, here is an other example of good marketing execution by Mega Bloks... And a bad one by LEGO, in my view. November 13th, 2004, a new toy store opened in Quebec City : (URL). They have many specialised sections, one of them about construction (...) (20 years ago, 14-Nov-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.dear-lego)

| | | | | Re: More BTR on the way?
|
| (...) Ha ha ha, okay, okay. I guess I have painted myself and many of my MOCs as BTR proponents. Thanks for that info Dave! I also thought that the BTR line was finito. TRU and Wally World (Wal-Mart) had cleared out their shelves for the last time, (...) (20 years ago, 11-Nov-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
| | | | | Re: Clone sightings

| <snip, et. al.> Well, here it is, my B-day, and I got to open up the package this morning. The crate is a bit better than reported or expected. It's real wood - thin and mostly ply, but real wood. The boxes inside are just 2. One for each set. I (...) (20 years ago, 10-Nov-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
