This is probably the best ad that the Hiveworkshop has ever had and will ever have I remember sitting as a kid for hours building warcraft 3 and starcraft buildings and units having wars with them it was a blast for hours on end ah the good old days.

Hold on a second, did meagblocks ever sell warcraft or starcraft themed stuff? I remember they having some orc vs humans series, but not really Blizzard-related stuff.

We had lego, not megablocks.

YEEE MEGABLOCKS

I was more of a lego person tho. Mine was more like this one:

Can't believe my older sister made me give my legos away once I got older. ;-; I still regret it to this day.

I fucking had that. Oh my god.

It was the only set which I actually build again.

Eagle XI · Nov 13, 2015

I was more fan of the pirate ships.

Gilles · Nov 13, 2015

This was my favorite.

Legos are really expensive.

One set cost me about 200 dollars! What a scam! Plus its just plastic.

PurgeandFire · Nov 14, 2015

They are insanely expensive. But my little kid mind didn't know the value of money, and it usually kept me occupied for a while so it wasn't too bad (plus it has replayability!).

Well, you're such a lovely dad. At least, it is better than letting your child playing Ipads or phones.

I think you're mentioning the old megablocks toyline series called "Dragons" where it has orcs, humans, and dragons with castle playsets. I used to have them but decided to sell a bunch of them for life.

Megablocks also bought a license from Blizzard to produce a World of Warcraft toys.

What I don't like about Megablocks is that most of their stuff isn't giving you enough imagination to make your own junk like Lego. Since they combine few bricks and a lot of action figures as their primary asset.

I still remember when i wad around 10 , i went to america and found an offical lego store.

Of course they sell sets of boxes of legos. But they let me choose the parts i want!

So i chose a demon head with a girls body. Those were worth the bucks!!!

Funny thing, you were about 10 and spontaneously mimmicked a baphomet when you had the freedom to choose the parts you want. I wonder if your parents thought that way lol.

Oh, I didn't really recall if that was Blizzard licensed or not. I wonder how there is always someone willing to buy old toys, in this case, outdated megablocks sets. I mean if it was Lego, which has all the hype, I would understand it more easily, we all know there are dedicated Lego collectors around.

Crystalknoct · Nov 15, 2015

wow I didnt expect this many responses but yea I remember working with lego aswell they had those dragons lego or what ever I would have fun with that aswell.
When I said I made starcraft and warcraft building etc I would use the 8x2 blocks as base and just pile it up for the human town hall and at this time I was basing all my block units etc on warcraft 2 so it was very easy to recreate. Starcraft was near impossible I made a hive once and wow it looked stupid... Plus I broke 5 megablocks creating it lol

I never heard of Megablocks. I guess that's an US thing then? I'm (still) a LEGO guy all the way.
