Here is a link (URL) depending on the quality of the peices castle fans that don't mind clone bricks will like these. I personally think the stone gargoyle peices are very niffty. As far as set design and the use of "block bottom action figures"... (...) (23 years ago, 12-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

| | MegaBloks massive Sea Wolf set
|
|
Saw this at TRU today: the Sea Wolf, a new entry in the Pro Builder line. It's a huge -- huge -- submarine with an interior, and electronic sound feature. I didn't have a lot of time to look at it, so this is from sketchy memory: it's about 3 feet (...) (23 years ago, 12-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(Note follow-ups.) I've seen a couple mentions recently on various newsgroups that Playmates Toys had a "construction toy" license for Lord of the Rings. Never saw any concrete info, though Playmates has an "Intelli-Blox" logo on their website (not (...)

|
|
From time to time I see these pop up on eBay, sometimes in the form of generic building sets, sometimes as themed Disney sets. Does anyone one these Blox? Do they work with LEGO? Dave! (23 years ago, 8-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) That set, and it's packaging in particular, really define the term "clone", don't they? I mean, GEEZ! Even their logo is infringing on the LEGO trademark! My guess? A cheap Chinese molds-from-existing-toy LEGO knockoff. Matt (23 years ago, 5-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

| | Daluland Castle
|
|
I saw this item on ebay today, unfortunately someone snapped it up using "Buy it Now." (URL) said that it was a "Daluland" castle, similar to Lego. The picture was very blurry, couldn't make much out. Has anyone ever heard of Dalu or Daluland? I (...) (23 years ago, 4-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

I saw the Knight and Wolf Giant Blok Bot set at my local Fred Meyer last night for $19.99. The color scheme is pretty cool, with silver and blue. The blokifig is pretty cool, too. He has a blue chestplate and silver arms, legs, and helmet. He has a (...) (23 years ago, 4-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) I was thwarted, too. Great marketing, Joseph! You got more money than several types of Lego Castles usually go for. Nice work. I guess maybe the sheer rarity of your item was another big factor in your favor. (23 years ago, 1-Oct-01, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)
