Yeah one of Halo packs is what my nephew got. I bought 3 of 4 orginial K'nex
figures. I do like Mario, his bro and that dino one, but it sucks that they cut
numbers on Bowser so hard. I never could find one.

I was able to get two Bowsers. One is still sealed.
| | That said, K'nex figures is pretty darn low quality. I bought em just because
hey why not. lol

Very low quality compared to Lego, but I've liked Mario Kart since it was on
the SNES and Boswer was always cool. I also have Diddy, Mario, and Toad (and
the spiney blue shell)

will always be some blur in line. Maybe terms should define few parameters to
draw line as best as they can. Custom parts can be cool.

Why cant we? If Lego made it, then it can be sold here. If not then it shouldn't
be here. Pretty easy line to draw to me. Maybe im crazy. lol 
|
See my other post about Lego licensed items.
| | | | Yeah but then same argument can be sued with megablok. What if seller is selling
megablok as megablok and not as lego? I certainly do not want megablok to be
legit here for any reason period.
|
So you are OK with one persons brand but not another persons? Not liking a brand
its one thing, bending a rule to allow the brand you do like is playing favorites
and not right. But thats my opinion.
|
Megalok is brand designed specifically to be competitor with Lego. Custom items
does not. Problem is blurness in definition of "Custom" and "Clone".
| | What is so bad about mega blocks? I have built with them, they are not that bad.
Yes they are not the same quality as Lego, but there are poor kids out there
that would fall over if you gave them a mega blocks set! After all these are
toys, most meant for kids. Do you want your kids growing up saying we can play
with these friends, but our parents said we cant play with those kids because
there parents don't have as much money as us. Yes kinda extreme, but kinda the
same idea with Lego vs Megablocks.
|
Yeah my nephew had megablok. He made few comments on quality, and he was around
10 then. He kept it though as he loves Halo.

This problem is solved by http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/96728
Bricklink by default doesn't have any title for invoices; this script gives them
a title of Order-number Customer-name, and sets the customer's country flag as
the icon for the tab.
Now when you open the drop-down tab list, the tabs will have meaning names and
helpful icons.

Nice thank you!
