I'm sure a number of you are already fans of Mega Bloks due to their Power Rangers licenses. What about other brands?
My favorite is of course, Lego, because I find that their plastic quality and design aesthetics to be unparalleled. However, I have also dabbled in Kre-O and Character Building, and both are pretty good too. Strangely enough, I have never touched Mega Bloks, but that might change eventually. Discuss!

Halo has been a good series for Megablocks.They've done really well with it and now their moving onto World of Warcraft,which means they got the rights from Blizzard and are getting noticed.Good for them.The big seller and popularity boost for Kre-o is obviously when they picked up the Transformers line.The minifigs are amazing and am glad they can "transform".(Basically parts-forming,but still good)

I love Lego, however, I got out of them primarily because I was never a big fan of their original stuff (Pirates and etc) nor their licenses (Star Wars and Indy).
I got into Kre-O, last year, though. Love these things. Though, to be entirely honest, I'm more of a fan of the Kreons than the actual sets. Don't get me wrong, I love building the Kre-O sets, but the Kreons just have more lasting appeal to me.

I'm half tempted to buy the Megablocks Claw Megazord just for the Shogun Mode Red

Goodness I too am willing to spend huge amounts on sets just for the minifigures. At least the Claw Megazord is a great set in itself. Well worth buying.

I'm against getting it online because building block sets can get a little heavy and that'll ramp the the shipping something fierce :S

Toys R Us always seems to be the best bet for these kinds of things...too bad the prices are always jacked up.

It's worse when you do find it,cause its usually at toys'r'us and they jack their prices for brick sets.Lego's,Kre-o,and Megablocks are all cheaper at places like Target and Wal-Mart,but good luck finding anything there.
Edit:Wow,typed the whole jacked up price line at pretty much the same time as ComicGuy I guess.lol

Definitely check out Ross'/TJ Maxx/Marshalls, that's where I found mine. It seems like they're getting a lot of TRU's Samurai surplus.
