Some Cheap Knockoffs aint that bad :D

Been to the mall in makati yesterday, while looking for the Mega Bloks Marvel Egg Wolverine for my friend phoenix from spartanbloks.com and Silver Surfer from Series 3 for me ... while on the way to the brick section i saw lots of knockoff bricks on sale. Some were brands i haven't heard of but it seems some have decent bricks and plastic. Some are priced at 200 - 350 PHP which is equivalent to almost 9USD and less.





There are lots more from Castles and City Sets, was about to take pictures of some when a female sales rep approached and ask me not to take pictures, oh well...

On my way home my wife asked me to dropped by a local grocery store in laguna
there i found a kiosk in the middle area who are also selling small packs of bricks for less than 3 - 4USD
From mini sets of military figures, construction sets and F1 race cars



there are also a few Ninjago KOs called Ninjaman Very Happy 3 - 5USD






bought a few and here's what i got

A pirate island set






and a mini-hummer




Both set's brick quality are much better than the earlier KO's that i bought for my daughter, Their Bricks are locking tightly to each other, the only thing i found out is that The pirates(Enlighten) set is much softer than the Hummer bricks.

mini hummer also comes with a mini-machine gun which also fit's MB minifigs hands:D



I'm not really familiar with the other sets and their bricks but both are a great addition for brick collectors.

Very Happy

in the end... there's no Mega bloks marvel eggs on site or the silver surfer... but i snag a few marvels from the blind bags.



Thanks for Looking
