Re: Adult Lego Fans
No arguments there dude. Lego has the licensing in their pockets. And they do amazing things with those licenses. MB is learning though. The new World of Warcraft sets look amazing. That's the thing with MB, I'm hooked on Halo sets, never played it in my life. From the looks of the new WoW sets, I'll be getting a lot of them too, and I've never played that one either. MB hooked me in on the merit of their figs and super-fun builds.

As for the lead paint comment, MB is Canadian, so I doubt very much this is true. The quality of their stuff is top notch.
Lego definitely has the time and experience on their side, and are really the top of the game, but MBs are catching up. And this is where the pricing comes in. Lego can charge more cause they've been around longer. MB pricing is super-reasonable, even on their flagship series, the Halo stuff.
I like Lego, and don't think anything less of anyone for collecting them, but wish that people would stop judging MB on how their sets were years ago. This is not to say that you won't run across a problem here or there, but the QC isn't any more prevalent than with other toy lines. And for the record, I collect only Mega Bloks, because they're affordable and I can't stand the Lego mini-figs. This is really where MB shines. Here's a custom I did, showing how awesome the mini figs are (you're going to love this one Proto!). I did add extra articulation, so the figs don't come with the bicep and thigh swivels, but other than that, it's a modded standard figure (used to be a Series 1 Black Spider-man, and an old style MB Leonardo).

Re: Adult Lego Fans
I want that Lex minifigure!
I should have gone with Gamestop/eb games/whatever they are called for Batman 2.
