I was surfing the other day and found a byggis comercial at: (URL) looks like Byggis (a company in the Scanbox Danmark group) has been having legal battles with TLC. At least these Super Mario Sets look better than the Pokemon Mega Bloks set I saw (...) (24 years ago, 21-Jul-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

We think that "Supersonic Mission" is a GREAT set, built with nothing fancier than some inverse (...) (24 years ago, 14-Jul-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) The comparison here is a little skewed, in that you're lining up Lego's largest basic tub against a specific MegaBloks building set. Conversely, one could compare MegaBloks' 1500 brick tub for $20 with Lego's UCS sets for $150; obviously the (...) (24 years ago, 14-Jul-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

Hi everyone, Does anyone need a Mega Bloks Legend viking ship? I found one at a closing Service Merchandise for $12, and figured I'd buy it and see if anyone wants it for that plus shipping.

Megabloks don't have any pieces with slots like Lego does, so the designer had to fake it using plates and some of their 2 x 2 double-sided pieces (plate with lugs on both sides).
