  So I got in a bulk shipment yesterday, and as I was sorting through them, a lot
of them felt like "Fego" aka Fake Lego. Usually I'm pretty good at either
seeing or feeling the difference almost immediately, but these threw me off.
They don't feel like LEGO, but they say LEGO, but I can't find any regular
LEGO numbers on them...

anyone else had this recently??

If the logo is on them, they're real (the converse is not true, of course).
But:

- they could be cellulose acetate (CA) - old bricks
- they could be Samsonite (Samsonite made Lego bricks under license and they
used the "open O" logo on them - sometimes you'll see bricks with upside-down
or sideways logos on the studs)
- they could be one of the newer plastics used by TLG

  Wow...

I guess it's a coincidence?

Last time was years ago when my daugther Mia was playing drums, LEGO released
Mia in her room with drums.

 
Set No: 3939  Name: Mia's Bedroom
* 
3939-1 (Inv) Mia's Bedroom
81 Parts, 1 Minifigure, 2012
Sets: Friends

One thing's sure; we now have to buy this (wonderful, I must admit)
one...

Adios "savings"


That is what I wanted to ask: are you going to buy it?
