  Re: Are you paying attention, LEGO?
 
(...) Whatever TLC are doing, they are obviously basing it on a 'More Sales; policy by following proven lines (quick-fix excitement for kids with the Juniorisation to compete with lesser quality ready-made toys). Yes, this sells right now, but when (...) (24 years ago, 4-Nov-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) Wow, right on. Except for the hope Ritvik buys out TLC, I totally agree. (...) I have to smile, because I thought of Mega Bloks the first time I saw the Statue of Liberty. Not only did the color remind me of Mega Bloks, but so was the abundant (...)
