In recent months I've acquired a number of old clone sets, and I've
noticed some clear similarities that make me wonder about the connections
between the various manufacturers. Certain non-standard-brick pieces from
Coko and Blok-Tek are identical in design, for example, while other parts by
Blok-Tek and Tyco are the same. Are all of these companies one? Or did
each firm simply by the molds in turn from the previous manufacturer?
I'm interested because a lot of these brands produced interesting parts of
considerable quality, and I'm curious about where these molds might now be
located. Perhaps Ritvik or Block-Men et al might acquire them for future
production...
Dave!
