Yes, I like to maintain a selection of 'also-ran's (of varying degree of success) - and I don't think this is one I have an example of so I would at least appreciate a picture of it, if not take it off your hands :-) I do plan to be at SCLF.

Flying on British Airways with my kids last week they were each given one of those 'keep em quiet' packs that amongst the various games, puzzles, etc contained a lego clone pirate set. It was a very poor clone - the studs are too high - but (...) (23 years ago, 17-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.loc.uk)

I bought a couple sets (Ant and Multi-dino ones) at the Imaginarium a few months ago, haven't seen them anywhere else yet. There are just ok. The pieces don't always stay together that well and there's no "moving" parts so basically you are building (...) (23 years ago, 9-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

I normally despise other building systems, especially ones that rip off Lego. But I actually found something that I was wondering if anyone else has seen. It's called Anatomics. It sort of reminds me of a cross between Zoob and Knex, with a little (...) (23 years ago, 9-Apr-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) 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.

(...) Best-Lock is 20LDU's tall, while LEGO is the "correct" 24LDU's tall. That means, of course, that six Best-Lock bricks are as tall as five LEGO bricks, so you can cheat a little. Also, Best-Lock has a few 120LDU wall pieces that can be (...) (24 years ago, 31-Mar-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
