Hello Arne!

Hi Dave,

Thanks for your quick response.
With the info I have so far I have been able to identify 53 different Dragon
sets (3 95xx, 6 96xx, 38 98xx, 2 600xx and 4 980xx sets), but some af these are
combinations of others, and some seem to be alike (e.g. 9807 and 9652 Sea
Assault). I have no Web-homepage, so I can't give you a link, but if you're
interested I can send a mail to you.
I have limited myself to the Dragon sets, as I think these are the ones that
make MB different from Lego. I've acquired a single Ninja Turtle set (1411
Battle Bridge), but did not find it overly interesting, and won't get any more.
I'll probably try a Pyrates set as well, but I don't think I'll get to like
those.

kind regards,
Arne, Copenhagen

(...) Hello Arne! It would be great if MegaBloks had some kind of direct online sales, even if they only offered whole sets rather than parts-packs (though parts-packs would be fantastic!)
