These are pretty cheap toys, like has been said. There is another set I've seen pictures of that looks kinda good -- it's a set of the Gate room at Cheyenne Mountain.

There's lots of other sets too. . .a Wraith Dart, some kind of little Jaffa battle station, individual sets of the different ships (F-302, X-302), and others. So much potential. . .wasted on a knock-off of a knock-off brand. I would have been happy with MegaBloks making these! (And don't get me started on Diamond Select's Stargate line!)

I know Lego has it's detractors, but Lego really *is* the brand that would have been best suited for Stargate. I mean, they already ran an egyptian line for a few years, and thus they already have a ton of egyptian type molds already made and ready to go.
Kreons would have been more fun for the minifigs, but like I said, lego was already ready to go. >_<

Although, there's one thing I think this group does right... the "large" ships are all just self contained model sets, that doesn't try to cram an out of scale playset for the minifigures inside.
Unfortunately, the "small" ships, like the deathgliders, they do the same thing.

Puddle Jumpers, Darts, Deathguilders, Cargo Ships, and the X-303s (Is that right?) should all be compatable with minifigures, with cockpits and (in the case of the cargo ship) full playsets.

But then, they didn't even make a canon character, so what do you expect.

On a side note, got some of my CB Doctor Who stuff in. Dunno why everyone says the blocks are bad quality.
