(...) So far the bricks consist of 1x2, 2x2, 2x4, and a special 2x8 by 2x10 T brick. Plates are 2x4 and 4x10 with a large bow plate for vehicles. There are 3 sizes of contoured slopes in right and left pairs, and a 2x4 rounded slope. The heart of (...) (19 years ago, 1-Feb-07, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

Pretty neat. Too bad we can't see more of the brick. BTW, Sploids let one connect Lego Bricks to Knex too : ) (...) (19 years ago, 30-Jan-07, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

A further note on the difference between Just-Kidz minifigs and Cobi/Best Lock minis (both made by C/block) the company apparently bought molds from multiple sources when making their switch from old scale to Lego metrics after their court victory (...)

(...) Like any overdesigned element, it's just a matter of finding good uses for them I find that Mega Bloks minifig parts fit in just fine if you mix them up well enough with Lego minifig elements. I love using this torso for instance: (URL) I (...) (19 years ago, 20-Jan-07, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

(...) For myself, I really dislike the scuplted figures for a few reasons: 1. They just seem over accentuated - they remind me of Games Workshop paint jobs (though I'll grant they use more subdued colors that GW uses). 2. They keep changing the (...)

(...) From an LDraw standpoint, I'm hopeful that Ryan Farrington has the means/will/resources/time to enhance his excellent library of LDraw-compatible K'Nex elements by incorporating some of these new pieces. I'm not a great fan of K'Nex, but I (...) (19 years ago, 17-Jan-07, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

(...) A lot of the proportions of K'nex line up perfectly with certain stud lengths so this could be even bigger/more important than that first glance implies. It certainly has my attention. After all certain things are better suited to the angles (...) (19 years ago, 17-Jan-07, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)

(...) These sound like MB (URL) Command Ops> (Military) and Dragons (Fantasy) figs to me. I haven't seen studs on Bestlock figs' backs either. And I would heartily agree that Command Ops was just made for BrikWars. And and I can't say 'BrikWars' in (...) (19 years ago, 17-Jan-07, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
