No other game company is has popular or strong enough IPs to net a Mega Blocks deal, Nintendo fucking WON.
The Pokémon Mega Bloks Are Coming
...
Microsoft has a few.
Those don't count cus MS paid for those.
They have quall of duty and destiny
Activision paid for those
>mega bloks
Are they still just shitty legos? Looks like they improved somewhat from these pics
>Are they still just shitty legos?
Yes.
boy what why the fuck would you want megabloks
>Mega Blocks
For what purpose? Does Lego take too big of a profit cut for Nintendo's taste?
(ahem)
*raises paw*
What is this then? shop.mattel.com
nigger they have had this shit for years
see: kyogre boat
>Mega Blocks
not good enough for lego huh
What is with that figure? Just make a simple one stub mold for Pikachu, damn.
I got some radical Megablocks Astronaut Zombie dudes from COD, they were expensive as hell but they look hella fine on my empty room back at my parents' house
I live in Japan. They've had Pokemon Mega bloks since forever.
I've been having a weird sense that Nintendo and the Pokemon Company are trying to run the franchise into the ground and cash out as quickly as possible.
Everything they've done in recent years has been a shameless cash grab with no effort or quality.
I think the licensure of 1000 Pokemon has become too expensive to remain profitable.
>not lego
Fuck me.
It has already been done.
What the fuck am i looking at?
>that abomination
>poor person blocks
ayy lmao
...
How old are you? 8?
Why do you care about this shit?
You poor Canadian bastards couldn't even get real Lego?
the fuck? why go with mega blocks and not lego?
also pikachu looks fucking hideous
>knockoff lego
>not buying the real thing
You are literally nineteen years late.
>Megablocks
>Not LEGO
That's just sad.
mega bloks are what you give your kid if they're not the favorite.
Oh jesus Mega Blocks got worse than I remember.
>ask mom for legos
>mfw she gets you megablocks
>someone actually thought these things looked good
>mega blocks
It said ionix right on the box.
wat
>No other game company is has popular or strong enough IPs to net a Mega Blocks deal
Well then Valve must be a way stronger IP then because it has a deal with Lego, not some cheap off-brand shit.
I don't understand why anybody (as a consummer or as an enterprise) would rather go Mega Bloks instead of LEGO.
This looks fucking horrible. Why would they give Ash a mech body, but then tiny little arms?
I can't believe this actually exists. Who would ever buy this garbage?
...
And mega blocks is doing this out of the kindness in their hearts?
>that bulba and vulpix
>that brock
desu megablocks probably paid gamefreak to do this
Those are pretty cute tbqh.
>vulpix
>brock
u wot m8
And also Sega.
Probably a lot cheaper.
>using a floaty donut as ring
>when perfectly fine Lego ring exist
REEEEEEEEEEEE
Iirc in America they had a Gen 3 set
I pity anyone who didn't grow up with Bionicle.
>Was on my way to buy Bionicle when I was a kid
>Mom stops me and tells that it was too expensive and that I could buy more other toys with the same amount money.
>Followed her advice.
I still kinda regret it.
They even showed him holding a regular ring in some trailers.
They use that god damn piece for toilet seats for Christ sake.
Most of these are abominations but Venusaur looks maybe kind of alright.
I actually own this thing because my kid sister bought it for me as a birthday gift. Having it on my shelf makes me look autistic as hell, but it reminds me I'm loved so I guess it all evens out.
I wouldn't stress too much about it, that Venusaur is dope.
Bionicles were shit and not real legos though. Might as well play with Duplos, faggot.
I'm dying oh my god
you misspelled derp.
anyway, it's not as bad as Mega Bloks' venusaur
It was some shitty off brand where the whole thing was that the people doubled as bricks
I have no fucking clue who thought that was a good idea
Apparently it spawned that Tengai Knights or whatever shit
>MEGA KEKS
Literally in a world where Legos exist.
>have a one Mega Bloks set-up on my shelves
>it's Sha of Anger from their WoW stuff
>looks fucking good on display still
>would buy the rest of their WoW stuff too
Looking at the rest of what they do, how do they fuck up that badly? They did an amazing job on all the WoW sets.
I sorta want these.
Anyway, if they had LoZ or Metroid MegaBloks, I'd buy those in a fucking heartbeat.
Mega Bloks are substandard trash for subhumans whose parents didnt love them enough to get them Lego.
Look at it, a majority of those things may have well been action figures, there are barely any actual blocks.

whats the process like for getting a Lego of your product? i figures GF is going with Mega Blocks for a better deal or something. Maybe they dont want Pokemon in one of Lego's movies or video games
WHy did Megablocks get all the cool ips but Lego only did their own stuff (outside of Dimensions)?
Tbh Lego have turned into turbojews as of late.
Lego have Star Wars, Lotr, Harry Potter, potc, Indiana Jones, both Marvel and DC
What the fuck does mega blocks have? Halo and Pokemon?
This can't be real
I feel sorry for Bionicle fans to be honest. They got cucked real hard from 2008 onwards. The reboot just spat on them more.
They sure fucking did.
>$20 set in the 90's
>Huge fucking castle or some shit with like a billion ninjas
>$20 set today
>A small vehicle that might as well just be three large pieces and a single figure
I want to punch my friends in the mouth every time they try to give me that UR JUS NASTALGIK shit
>tfw still no Nintendo LEGOs
They've got Star Trek, Futurama and Spongebob off the top of my head.
But generally they've got anything too "inappropriate" for lego to touch.
tmnt, destiny, cod, halo, barbie, despicable me
I remember them having cooler stuff when I was a kid when Lego didn't have anything like that, although based on this current selection maybe I'm remembering it wrong
>spess muhreens
you do realize prices fluctuate right? $20 was a lot back then especially with minimum wage being around $4/$5
>mfw can never find fuckhuge tubs of random pieces anymore
I thought they were acquired by some other owner in late 2000, which is when they started pushing out some more offlandish LEGO pieces.
While I agree they're making the sets smaller than they should be, the dollar of the 90s was worth between 1.5 - 2 times as much as today's thanks to inflation
mommy, why is ash a transformer?
>Really want to buy some large lego sets
>Realise I will just build it and then have it collect dust on some shelf
i used to have one
until my mom sold it in a garage sale
and i just NOW started to get back into Legos. Specifically for pic related
thank god i still saved my Bionicles
Nah, Lego still owns themselves. Their busniess was just in the toilet which is why they started coming out with Constraction shit around that time.
no but they are being produced in Mexico now. maybe thats what you heard
Wasn't it around then they started producing licensed sets too?
This is pretty much collecting in general
>mfw I gave my huge tub of shitloads of LEGOs to my neighbor when I went off to college
It was a good feel to know he'll never have a dearth of LEGO.
welcome to collecting. why do you think people buy display cases?
What about yourself?
>tfw gave my tub to my 14 year old sis when I moved out
She's 19 now and still has them in her closet. I feel loved.
Shit, what happen with Legos?
The figures are top notch though. They really stepped up their game in that department.
Their Destiny line is great too.
>Pokemon is on Megablocks
>Power Rangers is also on Megablocks
Why? There could have been awesome games with both franchises.
Don't remind me. Reboot had some fine sets, but in the end it just felt like we got the short end of the stick. Still, I'm happier knowing we got a few more years of Bionicle than none at all.
