Back in 1998 a line of LEGO-compatible military construction sets hit the market under the name Block-Men. I was generally pleased with this brand, as I revealed (URL) but it must be admitted that the sets were somewhat overpriced. Still, as a (...)

I spotted (URL) this> more or less by accident while perusing the Cobi website. This is a brand that either uses the same molds as Block-Men or else is directly affiated with that now-defunct brand. Some of the sets look very cool, but unfortunately (...) (19 years ago, 22-Aug-05, to lugnet.cad, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

Not much to sing about, but ArtAsylum's C3 stuff appears to be on somewhat deep discount. I grabbed Darkseid's Throne Room for $5.00, and the Batwing and large Batmobile sets appeared to be about $6.50 each. There are a few LEGO sets on similarly (...)

(...) Hhmmmm... That's a pretty swanky idea you got there. I will see what I can scrounge up in terms of a good scan. I know what you are talking about, I have done a good measure of shield and torso design myself, but that war banner is pretty new (...)

(...) Cool! If you own any, I'd suggest that you could add a few skeletons from the Pyrates line to add further zing to your forces.

(...) Hi Avery, very interesting, I've got very few MegaBlok sets (mainly purchased when on deep sale price and out of curiosity). Now I'd like to ask a favour, is it possible to get a decent size/quality scan of the red war banner with the dragon (...) (19 years ago, 15-Aug-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
