(...) Mostly. Dealing with just the basic bricks and plates (I haven't even looked at the MB specific specialty pieces, other than canopies... so I can't say if their rods are compatible with LEGO ones, if their clip pieces are compatible etc. I can (...)

(...) Overall, the rods and bars of MegaBloks are the same 8LDU diameter as LEGO rods, likely because Ritvik was smart enough to make its figures' hands the same grip size as LEGO minifigs, thereby creating at least a small demand for MegaBloks (...)

(...) Even better than that, Best-Lock has some 1x1 and 1x2 bricks with side studs; given the 20LDU height, you can stack several of these and make a secure perpedicular mounting surface for bricks. The colors aren't too far off LEGO true, so some (...) (24 years ago, 3-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
