Of course. MB is not the enemy here. One of their employees is certainly
not the enemy here either! Bad design and the lack of resources (i.e. the
bricks we need for a project) at a good price are the enemies we AFOL must
counter.
I buy Mega Bloks. I think many other AFOL buy MB too. The quality of MB
bricks needs to improve, but that doesn't mean I would scorn someone just
because they worked for Ritvik. Frankly, I would welcome their input on and
off the record. And if an AFOL (for lack of a better description right now)
really will be designing the MB toys -- I can't wait!!! Vikings, Blok Bots
II, MB castle, male and female double-sided plates, etc!!! Go, Baby, Go!!!
BTW, I can't believe how even-handed you are being about this, Todd.
Previous to this moment you seemed almost rabidly against any mention of
clones, with the exception of the existence of off-topic newsgroup for clone
brands.
Yeah, and how about BUGNET? Didn't I come up with that one, Santosh?

P.S. TLC, it's sad to see Ritvik MB thusly nipping at your heels -- but then
again, you SO deserve it...

What makes me ill is seeing reviews of clone brands seep into lugnet.reviews (I think that happened only (...) (24 years ago, 5-Mar-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
