A few months ago, Cobi (which is mainly active in Eastern Europe) and Best-lock (which is the 3rd largest construction toy company in USA) announced a merger that aims to solidify their competitiveness in the global toy market (see the news here) and as user pacman110011 was kind enough to report, the first wave of their jointly designed products have begun to appear in the US.

Although not typically known for their quality, in the past, both Cobi and Best-lock have enjoyed immense popularity among customizers for their wide range of minifig-compatible accessories, which fill in nicely the theme-gap that remains untouched by other leading brands. Their recent merger, as result, should only bring good news to the customization community and we eagerly await what the future will unveil for these two popular brands.
