 | | Re: Best-Lock
|
| (...) Hi there! Thanks for checking in and for the info. I actually do own probably around 3000 Best-Lock elements, and maybe two dozen of their minifigs. I am in general agreement with your assessment of compatibility, but I thought that the (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

| Mark W (...) I don't know if either of you have actually tried a BestLock set... yes, they look pretty cool and you get a LOT of pieces for the price. And the fact that they use the stud width = brick height (so a plate is 1/2 a stud thickness, and (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jan-06, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

| (...) Jeez! When you ask it point-blank like that, you make me wonder if I've been misusing it all this time. My usage is a usurpation of the term as it applies to the non-canonical books of the bible (the Gospel of Charlie, the Book of Tasty (...)

Typically I design my stuff exclusively with official Mega Bloks elements in quantities and colors that I actually own so (...) (19 years ago, 19-Jan-06, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
| | | | | Re: Freeze!
|
| (...) Sweet stuff. I am a little slow on the get up here, is this, was this, an official Megabloks set thing or totally your own creation existing only in the Megabloks drawer? Anyhew, like it either way. Very, uh, classic spacey. -Avery (19 years ago, 17-Jan-06, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

There is no third question :-) All seriousness aside, I can only admire your dedication to clone world. You definitely march to (...) (19 years ago, 17-Jan-06, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

| I'm pretty sure that ArtAsylum's C3 line has been discontinued, as evidenced by the forthcoming LEGO licensed Batman stuff, but I stumbled upon a gallery of photos of C3 sets that were apparently never released (along with some that were).

|
| Hi, I recently acquired this: (URL) not sure the bricks pictured really belong to the box. The box is without date, but judging by the design it could be late 50ties or early 60ties. It's Danish, inscibed with "Bengros" and "Dessin Nr. 5450" and (...) (19 years ago, 23-Dec-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

| I spotted all three sets at a KMart in Western Pennsylvania tonight. I picked up Aslan's Camp and Winter Battle for $7.99 each. I haven't yet had the chance to build them, but I'll post reviews as soon as I am able. They must have hit the shelves (...) (19 years ago, 2-Dec-05, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

That's technically true if you cherry-pick which Mega Bloks you want to test, but then the same can be said of LEGO:LEGO linking. Micro-scale Mega Bloks are almost 100% (...)
