It’s been 30 years since I used mega blocks, but damn they sucked.
I’ve always wondered if it was QC, or if there was some material properties of Lego that made them so much better? Like can they use tighter tolerances because of better plasticity/flexibility of their material?
I think you’re right about the material properties. I read somewhere that Lego is really finicky about the specific “recipe” for their plastic bricks, and yes, as a result they can specify higher tolerances.
