And it looks like it will give just the "natural stone variation" effect I was hoping for. (Which is also to say that, if (...) (24 years ago, 6-Sep-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

Hi, I was just at TRU today and I looked at the Mega Bloks area (by accident, really!). They have a new 1700-piece set that builds an aircraft carrier! It's selling for $79.99 CDN and when built, the model is over 3 feet long. Also includes 7 (8?) (...) (24 years ago, 31-Aug-00, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
