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 (...)

(...) Looks like they're just showing the new sets. But man, look at that Blackhawk ship! A three master! It looks like it might have 5 center sections. (25 years ago, 2-Mar-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) <<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)

  Megabloks ProBuilder
 
I've finally spent the time to set myself up for posting to Lugnet again. (I'm stubborn, and keep wanting to use "gnus" as my newsreader, even though I have no idea how to properly drive it!). Anyway, it seems somehow appropriate that my first (...) (25 years ago, 28-Feb-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) I can't help you or TLC here, I won't pay full retail for a dud set. I may not even pay 50%. I am not sure how low some Rock Raiders stuff has to go before I would even be interested.
