I fully realize that I'm dipping deep into how much of a nerd I am by showing my interest in World of Warcraft so early on. But like everything else, I can't help it. This is just too neat!
World of Warcraft has an awesome Mega Bloks line. Or is it that Mega Bloks has an awesome WoW line? Either way, the playsets offered are kind of phenomenal.
I've always written off Mega Bloks as basically the generic LEGO. They looked cheap. The sets sometimes looked hokey and cheesy. They just couldn't compete with LEGO.
Not anymore. I'm honestly starting to believe that Mega Bloks' poor initial reception by the public has allowed them to experiment with design and has given them more creative freedom. Also, keep in mind that this is all subjective opinion only. I realize LEGO has been around since 1949. And Mega Bloks (or whatever it was called) came around in the 60s. My opinions of Mega Bloks didn't come until thirty years later. Getting off topic.
I'm starting to love Mega Bloks. The partnerships with other brands have given them the ability to create some of the most detailed building blocks sets that I've personally seen. Take, for instance, the World of Warcraft Faction Packs.
