Alternative to Legp

[Gillybean]

Hi there

my little boy Dillon who's 6 loves lego but it's expensive even for something as little as a car kit it can be anything from £10 to over £100 so I had a look around for similar products and found something called Block sets from Wilkinson's and it looks just like lego except the men have a darker shade of colour. But I have bought my son a spaceship which comes with a spaceman and also 3 spacemen that also come with a space vehicle, also a police set which comes with a helicopter, police car and small kind of police station, also 3 policemen that come with another police car too and there is also a fireman's set and also 3 fireman which comes with something but he hasn't got that yet but

the spaceship and man
police set with helicopter, police station and vehicle and 2 men
3 spacemen and vehicle
3 policemen and vehicle

came to £14.50

and he loves it all he thinks they are fab.

just thought i would share this as i know when christmas and birthdays come round it can be difficult to find things that are reasonable in price.
