Tyco[edit]

(Luna Kid (talk) 10:00, 6 March 2011 (UTC)) WTF is "Tyco" (unreferenced, should be at least a link!) in the ~3rd paragraph?[reply]

I have asked the author to consider helping make this article better. If he declines... The material in that posting appears to be well sourced (references are given at the bottom) and the sources could be tracked down and used to improve this article although the text in that case should not be used. ++Lar: t/c 00:46, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It seems surprising to me that a patent was ever granted, considering that bricks virtually identical to Lego were being sold in the UK by Minibrix (I played with these at school in 1953). It might be good to clarify in which countries patents were filed and what the law is regarding prior art. I would have thought that the Minibrix (still available on e-bay!) would serve to nullify any patents held by Lego, even now. Do they in fact still hold patents? I note that in the UK compatible bricks are sold cheaply by other manufacturers, perhaps because of this weakness. --Lindosland (talk) 20:46, 28 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Here's a photo of a "Kiddicraft" brick (white) with some modern Lego bricks (grey), for comparison: ErkDemon (talk) 21:33, 24 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I assume "Lego eventually required the rights to Kiddiecraft" should read "Lego eventually acquired the rights to Kiddicraft". –Screwtop (talk) 02:55, 26 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Although they also realized that they required it... 惑乱 Wakuran (talk) 23:28, 25 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps redirect/merge[edit]

The section at Hilary Fisher Page#Kiddicraft largely contains the same content here. I think we're better off de-duplicating, and I think we can simply redirect this page to there. Alsee (talk) 20:23, 11 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

To avoid a split discussion, please comment at Talk:Hilary Fisher Page#Perhaps merge Kiddicraft. Alsee (talk) 20:31, 11 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
