| | | | | (...) <<Shocked>> Wow! This is the very first time I see best-lock sets. They are astonishing! Why can't TLG make sets like these? The detail on some ofe their tanks are great. Both playvalue and building possibilities. I want those! Can I buy these (...) (25 years ago, 2-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

| | | | | | | (...) Before you get the wrong impression, it should be noted that Best-Lock are *not* fully Lego compatible. The standard brick is 5/6 as tall as a standard Lego 2x4, and the top-studs are a little bit taller than Lego standard, so Lego plates will (...)

| | | | | | | (...) Before getting to excited, not that the quality is no where near as good as that of LEGO. The plastic quality if pretty good, but the sets do not stay together very well, because the bricks don't have tubes like LEGO. Though they are great (...)

The comments posted regarding quality are a real disappointment though, Best-Lock can certainly teach TLC about set designs. Without any QUALITY competition TLC will continue to ignore (...)

| | | | | | | | (...) The humorous thing is that the biggest problem of a brick called BEST-LOCK is their inferior ability to lock together. Sad, too. If they piece quality was close to Lego I'd divert a substantial portion of my income to Best-Lock. P (25 years ago, 10-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

Looked cool, but I hated it, never built it, threw it all away lest it become mixed with my LEGO. Bricks weren't crisp and square, dimples in parts, (...)

| | | | Those models look fantastic. Normally, I am utterly against any immitation LEGO products, but these look better than what LEGO is producing! I bet the prices are better too. I have two questions: How compatible are they with LEGO bricks? I've seen (...) (25 years ago, 3-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
