|
| (...) Well of course you need a chimney- wouldn't be safe to drive that many cars inside without one. Then you need steps, so you can go clean out the soot. (17 years ago, 29-Feb-08, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
| | | | | A big ol' garage
|
| We own about 300 of the Mega-scale Mega Bloks, which my 4-year-old enjoys, particularly when they can be used to build structures for his Matchbox cars, etc. Anyway, here's a garage that we built and which I rendered in LDraw: (URL) It's larger than (...)

| | | | | Kazi anyone?
|
| Anyone got familiarity with Kazi, a mainland Chinese clone company? They print their name on the studs, and seem to use both lego and mb clone elements. Just received sets 6004, 5, and 6, Spider Super Man vehicles (translated at chariots by (...) (17 years ago, 22-Feb-08, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
| | | | | Re: Are Brix Blox LEGO-compatible?
|
| (...) Turns out its all in the way the channels on the bottoms of the bricks were made. Best Lock channels come down to the base of the brick, Brix Blox channels are the same width, but stop one lego stud length short of the base of the brick. That (...)

|
| (...) This is indeed a cool bit of info, and I applaud the sleuthing that led you to discover it! The only down side, as far as I can tell, is that there's no way I'll ever be able to assemble anything close to a comprehensive listing of their sets (...)

| | | | | While we're celebrating anniversaries
|

| | | | | Re: Heads up, Cloneophiles
|
| (...) I second most of Arne's opions, especially about curiousity. But still I'm some kind of purist, but not all the way. Yes, it's contradictional, just like I am. The Purist in me states: "Thou shalt not hack LEGO!". So I use clones for Milliput (...) (17 years ago, 16-Feb-08, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, FTX)
| | | | | Re: Are Brix Blox LEGO-compatible?
|
| (...) Holy moley! Where were you six years ago when I needed you? Anyway, I love how you worked this out. I've never before thought of using one brand as a bridge between two others in this way. Very cool! Dave! (17 years ago, 15-Feb-08, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
| | | | | Re: Are Brix Blox LEGO-compatible?
|
| (...) Strangely enough while brix blox don't lock with lego, they do lock with classic style best lock, which in turn locks fine with lego. Thus if you want to build a wall using perspective, you can do the lower courses in brix blox, run a layer of (...) (17 years ago, 30-Jan-08, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
| | | | | Snap blocks
|
| Anyone out there familiar with another lego clone, snap blocks? I've got a large mixed bulk set coming my way with at least one snap block set, looks like a creator style lego helicopter. Any info welcome. (17 years ago, 11-Jan-08, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
