Alas, the only sets I was able to find on clearance at my local Target were Best-Lock. I'm generally favorably disposed to clones, and at $7.41 for 1000- piece sets I figured what could be the harm? I'm still not thrilled with Best- Lock, but they (...) (25 years ago, 19-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

| | New MegaBloks set

On Sunday I picked up a small MegaBloks Model Team-esque Tank for $9.99. It's roughly minifig scale and with a little modification could have a cool interior cabin. The set had 304 pieces, most of them dark, military green, as well as 12 wheels and (...) (25 years ago, 18-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

In a recent Ebay auction I acquired 4 Lego-compatible brown 4x8x2 bricks, each with a 2x2 square button on top that, when pressed, makes a sound not terribly unlike the classic Godzilla roar. Each stud, with the exception of those on the square (...) (25 years ago, 15-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

They are trying to get themselves into the door on Model Team like sets. Which, to me at least, is a very smart thing to do. It's what Lego did to get themselves the positive recognition so many years ago. But their process has not changed, and (...) (25 years ago, 9-Jan-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
