 | | Bogus "clearance" at TRU

Warning--this post contains info about a clone brand, but it's relevant to LEGO, so bear with me... TRU currently has a bunch of stuff with green price tags and signs all over the store proclaiming an additional 30% off green-tagged items. Sounds (...)

(...) That's an interesting hypothesis that hadn't occurred to me! A search on the (URL) MEGABLOKS website> returns no hits for "9652," but unfortunately that's not quite conclusive since "3707" doesn't show up, either. In any case, I'll do some (...)

(...) I don't know if it's similar, but the MB Dragon set Raiders Sea Assualt exists as both set number 9807 and set number 9652. I'm not sure, but I think maybe the 96xx-series was sets intended for the UK market? Arne, Copenhagen (19 years ago, 27-Jul-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

My local KMart has two versions of the (URL) Force Warthog> on the shelf. The sets themselves appear to be identical, but the boxes are slightly different, and one is listed as set #9789 and the other is #3707. The price and piece-counts are the (...)

(...) Hmmm. The wings sweep back and there are multiple points of articulatioin, (the legs not withstanding) excellent. I think that was my major complaint with the the original dragons they were always flying. Of course I also hated the armor (...) (19 years ago, 20-Jul-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

(...) You may talk of Built-To-Rule ‘Cause the sets are really cool, But you haven’t seen a new one for a while. If you miss the parts and colors You can only hoot and hollar That, at best, you might peruse the clearance aisle. They seemed destined (...)

While I ponder, weak and weary from mowing tall grass yards grown a day or two or more, I fumble in, a tired ghost of who I was before, to see my dusty array of bricks all in store With dust and age gathered as a funeral procession there to morn And (...)

(...) Pretty misleading title on this set, especially since the text at MB's homepage describes it as a detroyer. Last time I checked there was quite a difference between a battleship and a destroyer. I just couldn't grasp how they could make a (...)

Continuing the very cool military ships series. MEGABLOKS has a new ProBuilder version of a (URL) Battleship.> I haven't seen it on the shelves yet, but it seems likely to retail for $19.99 or $21.99. Dave! (19 years ago, 18-Jul-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
