At least Lego‘s patent on the bricks expired. You can’t make mini figures but bricks shouldn’t be a problem
 help



Indeed Amazon is chock full of shitty Chinese Lego ripoffs. The bricks do indeed fit together but the quality is abysmal.

Some of the Chinese brands have superior quality to LEGO these days.

Partly because the chinese produce the plastic that Lego use.

Well done indeed

I hope that Lego (not lawyers ofc) would appreciate such creativity approach and hire creators. (E.g. similar to acquihire of OpenClaw creator by OpenAI.)

How many of us do think this way?

I am always jealous (in good way) when I see similar projects.
