Wow, some harsh words for us here! Well, we can take it ;)

It's worth noting that we met personally with Blizzard and the sole reason we scored this license is that they loved the prototypes that we prepared so much. I can't share pics with you guys yet -- unfortunately -- but as soon as I can, I will. All I can say is that it's by far one of the most impressive looking construction toys I've ever seen, and I am sure you will all agree.

We're not oblivious to the perception of Mega Bloks as a poor quality LEGO rip-off, but that idea is rooted more in perception than actual fact. We're the only construction company making high-detail, fully articulated micro action figures. We're the only construction company willing to take on mature video game licenses like Halo, Need for Speed, Starcraft and World of Warcraft. If there's a problem with your Mega Bloks set, you can contact me personally and I will do everything to make it right. We take every single comment made about our products very seriously and all suggestions and comments are passed along directly to the management team.

If anyone has any questions or comments for me, feel free to leave a response to my comment and I'll get back to you ASAP!

 Man, I have been buying the HALO bloks like crazy the last couple months, I have the entire line now.  MegaBLOKS are so much better than anyone is giving them credit for.  I was hesitant at first, I bought some back in the day and they WERE trash.  But as a brand they have really stepped up their game and made a bid to be competitive.  Out of all the sets I have built, I had one set were a couple of the small detail pieces did not attach so great, but, I have the same issue with Lego.  I am really excited about WoW bloks, I was just thinking the other day how awesome it would be... The biggest problem is, I do not share well, and my Girl Friend will want to steal them from me.

The reason why we instinctively know lego will always be superior -  "The machines that make Lego bricks have tolerances as small as 10 micrometre."  Source

LEGO is to mega bloks as christmas is to aids: one is a fond childhood memory, the other is a nasty, self replicating parasite which copies and manipulates nice things to abide it's agenda. plus, i don't want to have anything to do with people who seriously propage the latter over the first.

Yikes.  You guys sure hate MegaBloks.  How many of you have any?  The plastic isn't as good?  Really? 

Man, have you played with the minifigs?  They have better articulation than most DC figs and nearly all the models are awesome.  I swear, people just hear shit on the internet enough, and they start repeating it.

Go get a set.  Marvel at the minifig articulation, thrill at plastic depiction of realistic firearms, and swoon and the number of sets available.  Then make yourself a goddamed walking tank, a Covenant Starfury, a UNSC Hiss Tank or whatever the fuck else you want, because this like is like Lego Angelina Jolie fucked G.I. Joe Brad Pitt, and Haloblocks are.... the adorable Shiloh? 

I think my analogy got away from me.  Peanut better and chocolate.  RPGs and Porn Stars.   Teenage girls and hard alcohol.

Starcraftbloks are going to be like awesome like... a super-hot 22-year old daughter of two incredibly attractive multi-millionaires?   That rad right?  Goddamnit.

So basically, you finally get your horde of Zerglings.

I got the Pirates ship from mega bloks and it has Alot of detail but Mega Bloks Sucks! the pieces dont fit together properly.Lego needs to buy them out and shut them down,

Mega Bloks suck. It would be better for no one to have them. They are a cheap rip off and always will be. They are the Spiderman Turn off the Dark of building bricks!

I almost bought the Halo kit's when Target put them on clearance, but the fact that they are all 100 or less pieces made me lose interest. Half the reason why I love Lego products is the fun of building them, and a 100 piece set will take me 10-20 minutes at the most. I do admit, they are probably great for kids with their simplicity, but why exactly do kids need my nerd-properties?

On that note, Lego needs some more epic 1k piece sets to come out soon before I get bored and pull apart my Millennium Falcon again...

Rob: It's not "Legos". It's "Lego". I'm sure I've read you giving out about this on here before, no?

I'll be the lone voice in the wilderness proclaiming the grooviness of Mega Bloks.  No they're not as good as Lego, but they made some fine castle pieces a few years ago that put most lego pieces to shame (from a strictly aesthetic point of view).  The medieval building kits were so much prettier than any Lego castles I've seen.

They definitely know how to make some sweet-looking kits without being as prohibitively pricey as Lego, but they do tend to be more limited in terms of versatilty,

I've never been tempted at all by the Mega Blocks Halo stuff. Doubt this will sway me. Mega Blocks just seem like shitty knock-offs to me (even though their Dragons stuff seems kind of neat)

Mega Bloks are horrible, horrible toys.

LEGO are to Mega Bloks as Tea is to Almost-but-not-quite-entirely-ulinke-Tea

Mega Bloks or as I like to call them Faux-gos.

I have bought exactly one Mega Bloks set, the first Warthog from the Halo line. The instructions were wrong, the parts wouldn't fit together as on the box pictures, the plastic was substandard, the bricks didn't hold together, the figures couldn't be placed on standard studded plates due to a design flaw... In all my years of buying LEGO, I've not had that many issues. I would argue that it would have been much better had there been no Halo construction toys rather than Mega Bloks ones. I'd argue the same for Blizzard properties.

At least it means I don't have to worry about how much it might cost.

Well the good news is you can afford them better as they are not lego, but you lose some of the charm that Lego puts into them so thats a loss
