I just saw this auction on eBay: (URL) not mine, and I don't know the seller, so I'm not soliciting bids in any way. I haven't seen this set previously--does anyone know about it? As of noon EDT Sunday the "click for larger image" links weren't (...) (24 years ago, 25-Mar-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) Well, if they are, here's a suggestion I made to Ritvik via their website feedback feature: I'd really like to see a statement about if and how they figure to enter some major European markets, namely the German.

(...) Wow! A box with a million 2x4 bricks! Maybe I'll pick up a half-dozen at the next BOGO 50%, and build that extension on my house I've been meaning to get to... ;) (I don't think I have a sufficient grasp of the sizes involved - I can't imagine (...)

(...) AFAIK, most MB users are AFOB (Bricks, Blocks, Building), rather than fans of the Ritvik range per se. I'd say most are AFOLs who are willing to make a slight trade off in terms of quality and LEGOness to obtain large quantities of the bricks (...)

(...) Being both a avid AFOL and a O gauge collector and operater (notice O gauge, not Lionel) I will agree to a point.
