Peppermint_M Posted August 21, 2019 Posted August 21, 2019 So, I know I have garnered a reputation of Queen of the Clone brands, but I have come across a mystery pair that do not match anything I have come across before. I made a purchase of a mixed box of bricks in a flea market. It had a fair few M-Tron and classic pirates parts in, so despite the noticeable clones, the price made it something of a steal. These are one kind of clone: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1-SbVkI0eZ9X_MoPUwonn2M-4IZIvaTDP These are the others https://drive.google.com/open?id=1-Igwfo-mrSryFDSIaYJ4eqZ8PwtjZ8jb Due to the main contents of this box being early 90's, I was thinking they might be from around then. As that put me at pre-10 I would not recall clone brands from that early on! Also, they are not marked Tyco, I have a few of those (excellent quality) bricks from a handed down bucket and they are clearly marked with a Tyco brand. As Mega also brands their bricks and Best Lock were a different scale to LEGO bricks right up until the 2000s (plus there was some form of brand mark too). This is a mystery that will bug me, can anyone shed any light themselves? Quote
