*bleargh* I hate megabloks... They gave me one good thing. A sword that fits a minifig, and it happens to be the best sword in the world. I'm going to base a Brikwar off of it... Other than that... I don't like them, at all.

Most of my small collection is megabloks, mostly becuase there cheap. I didn't own any untill after hurricane Katrina, my friends that stayed said they found lego's all in the streets and in there yards.

It's cool, but for MegaBloks, those huge pieces almsot make all the work.

LEGO® is much better.

As cool as that castle looks, the brutal truth is that Megablok castles really aren't that impressive. Like pesgores said, those wall pieces do all the work, and they're designed so you don't have to put any effort into aesthetics. Nice job, anyways, I'd enjoy a Brikwar in that.

LEGO castle walls are flat...what's the difference of having a deco on it?

that aside...I don't feel like spending a million dollars just to have enough peices to build a cstle with individual bricks. Trust me I would build it with bricks, but I'm not spending the money for them.

Any donors?

Ha ha ha


Who was it who used to do the "hahaha" posts just to get his post count up? Was that Yak? This exchange made me do a hahaha post. But then I felt ashamed, so I came back and edited some more into it.

'twas indeed yak, though it was a simple "lol". He wouldn't put the effort into typing out the laughter.

I voted little armory because I thought we were talking about waepons, not buildings. Lego for buildings, Little Armory for weapons.
