Re: Question: Are reviews of non-LEGO (such as Mega Blocks) sets of interest?

I know there was a thread about clones before...
but I'd still like to see a discussion group for them.

Since people new to Lego can no longer get interesting
elements for towns from Lego anymore,
I'm interested in mixing architectural
elements from Best Lock... if I knew more about them.

Since I can't find them for sale here in the U.S.,
it would be useful to hear what other AFOL's in the U.K. think
about them before I try to trade for them.

For me, ignorance is not bliss.  :-(

Great!

I ended up picking up a couple Mega Blocks sets and
would be happy to review them if there is interest (and not too many
cries about poluting the environment with non-LEGO).

This newsgroup is for reviews of LEGO® brand products only.  Please do not
post reviews here of things not manufactured by LEGO®, especially clone
brands.

You could talk about clone brands (such as MegaBloks) in .off-topic.fun,
however.
