SirNadroj Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 Hey again! I've have seen these small 'lego' bricks in different places, but I stumbled on another picture and I must know where these came from: Are these real? Where did they come from? Where can I buy em'? Maybe SW4J can help. I think that's his picture, right? ;-) Thanks guys! *sweet*
Doctor Sinister Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 That's LEGO Modulex - used by Architects to design buildings. There are some people who make MOCs with it - it's rather nice. Dr. S.
Holodoc Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 From time to time there are question about modulex-bricks. The last time it was February. Here you go: *click* Have fun! :-) EDIT: This is a Hobbes made of modulex. I found him at 1000steine-Land 2006. click to enlarge
SirNadroj Posted October 27, 2007 Author Posted October 27, 2007 (edited) Thanks for the info! I had no idea, that's really cool! So I guess I'm not gonna get a whole bunch cheap.... but I only want a few just to have... anyone know where I can get em'? X-D But are these official LEGO bricks,, or is Modulex it's own company?

Did you follw my last link? |-/ It should explain a lot. ;-)

Starwars4J Posted October 28, 2007 Posted October 28, 2007 Don't worry, I did, I did! X-D Then you should know that modulex is official lego ;-) Your best bet is to just hunt e-bay for them. They're not outrageously expensive, but they're not that common, and you'll be spending more than the standard $0.10/brick that you do in lego sets. It shouldn't be that hard to amass a fair amount, but the shipping is the real killer. Almost everyone who has modulex to sell does so from england. I actually made a vig with them a while back
natelite Posted October 28, 2007 Posted October 28, 2007 if only lego expanded on modulex and maybe have modulex mfs. :-P imagine building at a micro scale level rather than mf scale! :-P if given a choice, i would like to collect modulex. :-P

Lord Of Pies Posted October 28, 2007 Posted October 28, 2007 (edited) Modulex ay? Sounds interesting! The hunt is on, to E-Bay! *Runs off to the Pie-mobile* *Realizes the Pie-Mobile is not built yet* :-D I have not heard of Modulex before, and it looks rather spiffy, so I shall attempt to get some. Does anyone know if any shops sell them? I.e in-store, not online?) Thanks. Mini MOC on!? Edited October 28, 2007 by Lord Of Pies
Starwars4J Posted October 28, 2007 Posted October 28, 2007 See, I searched BL and someone from Australia has many 1 x 4 wihte bricks only for $20, but I want a variety of shapes and colours... It'll come back agai n, just check back every week or so. It comes in waves. Does anyone know if any shops sell them? I.e in-store, not online?) Thanks. They haven't been in production for a while. I doubt you'd find any non-ebay or lego-specific shop that would have them, but there's something to be said for some good old-fashioned gum-shoeing!

They aren't megabloks...they're Lego. Official Lego called modulex that they originally manufactured for engineers. History of Modulex They're not the same as you're offering...

X-D
VBBN Posted October 28, 2007 Posted October 28, 2007 (edited) My boxes for these say mega blocks. They are the same size, shape, colors, etc. Link. :-| :-| X-D X-D :-X :-X Edited October 28, 2007 by ~VBBN~

They are the same size, shape, colors, etc. Link. :-| :-| X-D X-D :-X :-X Actually, I'm almost 100% positive NANOs are smaller than Modulex. Besides, I only want Modulex for the sake of it, and because TLC produced them, and I am TLC's biggest drone and sucker for buying anything they could possibly make. ;-) Especially items that aren't exactly lego bricks, like Modulex bricks. Close, but no shave! :-D

But your logic lego is all megabloks), and I provided a history of modulex...which clearly is real.
SirNadroj Posted October 28, 2007 Author Posted October 28, 2007 If anyone here has some they want to sell, please PM me. All I'm looking for is one of each shape or colour. I'm not looking for tons! Like I said, I only want a few for the sake of it! ;-)
