  1. It looks beautiful! Great job.
  2. I see what you mean, but to get them line up with the height of the regular bricks, you would have to have a large number of them… it depends on what the Lego System dimensions are, but it may be as many as 5 or 6 cubic bricks to get them to line up with the system bricks.
  3. Seeing them side-by-side, I do see now why you like the new one. It looks much better here than in the pictures I had previously seen. Maybe it's just the nostalgia talking.
  4. The only way to make a decent 1:1:1 system compatible with Lego System is to make the bricks huge. I don't remember what the Lego dimensions are, but you would have to find the least common multiple of those dimensions to make a cubic brick compatible with the Lego System. A brick that size could only be useful as a children's toy, and it would lose the cuteness factor.
  5. To be honest, I don't think we should pretend there's a huge market for these bricks. For the majority of us, these are more of a curiosity than anything. If there was a large demand for this product, Lego would have never given up the rights in the first place. This is a very disappointing turn of events, but I don't think any of us expected this to be very successful anyway. We just would have appreciated whatever limited run MB A/S was able to offer us.
  6. I just got an e-mail from Thomas. He said they handed all of their materials (test bricks, etc.) to TLG. We will never see another Modulex brick again.
  7. I disagree. The old crocodile looked much better and I appreciate the fact the new shark is similar to the original, but adds the ability to place it on a baseplate.
  8. I love it! How did you make that arch above the front door?
  9. No, that wouldn't work. The Modulex bricks are completely different proportions. The reason they're able to make Duplo, Quatro, and Primo bricks compatible with Lego System is because those all follow the same proportions.
  10. My guess is that they never had any kind of plan when they made the first bricks. The current dimensions are probably just based off some random mold, probably hand made. I'm sure they had no idea how big this would become when the first started doing this.
  11. I have some of the new bricks. They're definitely every bit as good as Lego bricks. This is very disappointing.
  12. The 2015 sets are on fleabay now.
