Doh! The clonemeister's been scooped!
I thought it had been established somewhere that MEGABLOKS used some lesser
manner of styrene other than ABS, but I could easily be mistaken. There was a
thread in OT-Clones a while back about Ritvik's newly-contracted molding
company, but I can't find the thread now.
Anyway, I'm still pretty sure that TLG isn't contracting its brick-molding
through MEGABLOKS!
