    If Lego released official Star Trek sets I would be so happy, and so bankrupt. I’ve been scraping by with Lego Star Wars sets but I would gladly forego groceries for a few weeks to be able to buy a Lego Enterprise or Klingon Bird of Prey.

        I’m not familiar with Blue Brixx but I’m skeptical. If the studs don’t say “Lego” then they don’t go in my bin. Anyone trying to bring Mega Bloks for example into my house is asked politely but firmly to leave. I wonder if the design can be built with actual Lego bricks though. That could be something…

          Blue Brixx quality is comparable, certainly better than the Lego sets 10-15 years ago when our teens were really into them. (Fewer Lego models just fall apart in your hands after building them now.) Blue Brixx is a serious hobby brand in the EU.

          Lego chose Star Wars over Star Trek, but at least there’s something out there even if the North American distribution is limited.

          If it says “standard size”, the blocks will be Lego compatible. I have some star trek sets and they are very nice.
