  New MEGABLOKS line
 
I saw two figures from (URL) this line> at my local KMart over the weekend. I confess that this was the first I'd heard of these, so I have little information to offer other than the link to a few photos. Even the (URL) MEGABLOKS website> doesn't (...)

  Re: MegaBloks
 
(...) After many years of LEGO purchases, I've recently added some MB sets. As I live in Denmark, I can buy only LEGO in the stores, and pays the very high price accordingly. So to get MB sets, I have to buy from UK or USA. I have bought quite a (...) (19 years ago, 5-Jul-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: MegaBloks
 
(...) Did i mention the MB Dragon’s line somewhere?!? (I don't think i linked to it?) Actually i was referring to their new 'Pyrate' line and how they reinvented the minifig that really got my attention. Interestingly enough though, the Dragon line (...)

  Re: MegaBloks
 
(...) Hi Kirby thanks for your response! I can see in the next few years Megabloks gaining greater market share and continuing to improve it's product line in terms of quality, realism and general appeal to a wider youth audience then Lego.

  Re: MegaBloks
 
(...) I try not to aknowledge the Junior line. Though I have bought some Junior sets at deep discount for some chrome pcs and out of curiosity as to what I might be able to do with some of the parts. Most of the pcs went to my kids who gleefully (...) (19 years ago, 4-Jul-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Re: MegaBloks
 
(...) I personally don't know - but Lugnet DOES have a forum for discussing Megabloks and other clone brands: (URL) . You'll probably get more information there. -Lenny :followups to o-t.clone-brands (19 years ago, 3-Jul-05, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  MEGABLOKS Site Updates
 
Information about the new Metal Ages Dragons line (URL) These sets appear to have a more "Eastern" fantasy vibe to them, and the new Dragon Eggs sets are also featured. Dave! (19 years ago, 28-Jun-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
 
  Review of MB3601: Pieces of Eight
 
Review of MB3601 Pieces of Eight MSRP: $4.99 Pieces: 20 Figures 2 First, let me come clean and admit that until ten minutes ago I had no idea what the idiom “Pieces of Eight” means, but thanks to (URL) Wikipedia> you can count me officially (...)

  Re: Review of MB 3660: Dread Eye's Phantom
 
(...) Wow! I've been toying with the Dread Eye's Phantom as well and was extremely impressed. This review is extremely detailed and 100% accurate. It is a little unrealistic that the entire ship is said to be carved from the skeleton of a whale. (...) (19 years ago, 21-Jun-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
 
  Dread Eye's Phantom
 
Hi all! I've been awaiting a lego pirate ship that is up par...u pirate people know what i mean. I have Captain Redbeard's pirate ship, which i thought was decent. The ship is lacking in authenticity and is quite simple to piece together. However, (...) (19 years ago, 21-Jun-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
 
  Review of MB 3660: Dread Eye's Phantom
 
Review of Dread Eye’s Phantom MSRP: $49.99 Before I begin, we need to get a few things out of the way: One: The Figures: These are the sculpted and highly detailed figures I discussed in an earlier review, and if you simply don’t like them, you (...)

  Re: Review of MB 9848: Argentum Silver Armor Dragon
 
Addendum—boy, am I a knucklehead. The Dragon does have a cluster of four studs at the middle of its back, exactly positioned for a minifig to sit upon it. While penning my dazzlingly eloquent review, I had the wings swept back in such a way that the (...) (19 years ago, 20-Jun-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
 
  Review of MB 9848: Argentum Silver Armor Dragon
 
This is from the Dragons: Metal Ages series, continuing the line of “Dragon Eggs” that we’ve seen before (but now better, IMO). In brief, each set is a large egg containing a single dragon figurine in ten pieces. I haven’t previously been thrilled (...) (19 years ago, 20-Jun-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
 
  Re: Megabloks acquires Rose Art

However, as I read the PowerPoint presentation on the MEGABLOKS website, I noticed something interesting in the discussion of license (...)

  Re: Megabloks acquires Rose Art
 
(...) (snip) Interesting. IIRC Rose Art did some puzzles for LEGO, which presumably will not be contracts that are renewed. (19 years ago, 16-Jun-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
