This was my primary "yay!" over TENTE way back when. The fit was inconsistent, the greys did vary occasionally, but the variances looked very good somehow. Unfortunately IMHO Mega Bloks has a ways to go before it will reach the level of TENTE for appearance in my eyes. I wasn't at all impressed with the MB Battleship, but that's probably because large LEGO warships are my primary claim to fame 'round these parts. ;) What I did find impressive was the new series of "astrobright" colour buckets--some of those bricks have wonderful manufacturing tolerance, much better than the over-shelf sets seem to (don't quite know why). best Lindsay PS: Peter, sorry my slowness in delivering ammunition is keeping you from gaming this weekend. :( But they are on their way! :)
