lol username Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 I don't feel like explaining everything when it's in the video. If you don't want to watch the video, read this: http://jamesster.wordpress.com/2013/03/25/meanwhile-in-chocolate-world/ Our beloved chocolate has gone to the dark side. ... That was a terrible joke.

Alcom Isst Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 What recording equipment are you using?, because I'm still not satisfied with mine and this video has way better sound quality. Also, if Hershey is going to do anything LEGOy, why not an edible brick? LimeKiller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because you're rather limited when you're 1,500 miles away from your home and the cameras it contains. ;P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbob Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Haha, I laughed so hard from 10:00 in. If this had actually been edible chocolate, I would have sought after one, but as it's not I'm quite appalled by it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobExplorien Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 The bricks even sound different when grabbling them. And it was hilarious to see that the whole car fell apart, even though you even dropped it before and it all kept sticking together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fush Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 This is horrid. I mean at least other brands like mega-blox etc. have different brick molds that, while still being compatible with LEGO bricks, distinguish them as their own toy... but this? Every single brick in that model is identical to existing LEGO pieces. The hell? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Particularly the fact that this set's instructions actually show LEGO's Ogel, despite coming with a different figure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A decent, well-respected brand (until now)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthuriel Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Ah, too funny . Reminds me off an old Lego knock-off set (~10 years) from poland, which is really cheap-looking. Maybe I should take some pictures of it. The Reasonably Blogged links are extremly funny, too. There's also an Bionicle knock-off: http://reasonablyblogged.blogspot.de/2009/06/toybox-of-fail-soldier.html: The best part is the following line "High standard in quality and hygiene." What does that mean? That there is "only" tuberculosis in every seventh package? PS: Maybe we should start a competition with the topic "Who can create the worst bricks ever?" (allowed are materials like paper pulp, wood etc.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew there were quite a few LEGO imposters, but now I see that the packaging, instructions and bricks are just way too similar to the products the LEGO Company sells. Why isn't this copyright infringement? And if it is, why are these imposting products being sold? To just compare and see how superior LEGO is in quality and reliability? I don't want these products anywhere near me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lair Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Why isn't this copyright infringement? Because a lot of these are from China. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tracker Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 I saw knockoffs of 4837 in a local museum shop. I check the box and found that they used ABS. I wonder how the elements hold up compared to the ones in my original (all four black bows have cracks as do the dark green slopes, one of which is split almost completely).
