 | | Best-lock found.

After reading much about Best-Lock bricks last year, I was interested in seeing some, but was never able to find any. Long story short, I found several kits this afternoon at my local Target store. I picked up the Missle Launcher and Armored (...) (25 years ago, 10-Apr-99, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

First off, I'll mention to newcomers that the Coko products apparently aren't new and were more readily available in the U.S. in the early to mid 1990's. You may still be able to find some in hobby shops or discount stores. An unofficial product (...) (26 years ago, 2-Apr-99, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

Good luck in your auction. I would like to be updated, since this is the first clone auction on Lugnet and the first I have seen. I would really like to see the scans. I am glad you chose not to post your auction here, lest it become a trend, and I (...) (26 years ago, 26-Mar-99, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

Well, I built the castle to make sure it had all the 494 pieces and it is missing a few things: The radar dish type piece which connects to the underside of a round tower. A minigfig. A visor to a minifig helmet. A shield and a few weapons. (...) (26 years ago, 26-Mar-99, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

First, this is a newsgroup for discussion and auctions, IMO, should be held elsewhere. There are plenty of places you could auction the set, and then notify people here as well as RTL. eBay is a good bet. Also, Gene (gr3@superlink.net) at the (...)
