After the Frank Lloyd Wright LEGO sets yesterday, reader B in Emeryville, CA pointed me toward this February article "LEGO and Disney in Deal for Toy Story, Cars, Prince of Persia Kits".
How did I miss that?!
Since November of 2002 Mega Bloks has had the license for construction brick toys, making Cars, Pirates, Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, Winnie the Pooh, Princesses and Power Rangers sets.
And honestly, they're crap.
(Especially the Power Rangers).
Before that deal, back a decade ago (in the days of the Soccer, Studios and "Jack Stone" sets) Disney and LEGO had a deal for Duplo Mickey Mouse and Winnie the Pooh sets.
It's good to see two companies with long histories of quality (and two of my former employers) back together again.
