I wanted to give everyone in the community a discount on our EverBlock but PLEASE don't distribute this code outside of the community as this really cuts our margin razor thin. You can used Friends20 to get a 20% discount at checkout. I'd love feedback from everyone if they build anything with our product.

@arnonrosan Hey Arnon! This is awesome man. What's the durability of the block like? Has anyone ever used them in the developing world?

@matth3wmarshall Hi Matthew. Thanks for the kind words. The blocks are quite durable and have a UV package to prevent discoloration or breakdown in the sun. Blocks also have reinforcement ribs and are quite thick. We estimate weight loading at about 100psi but haven't run tests YET. I really would love to get these out there as a low cost housing alternative in developing countries and as we add accessories like windows and doors make just for the blocks, I am hopeful we can make this a truly viable option.

@arnonrosan Awesome idea and I think the price points are bang on. Do you guys have a patent on this? Is there any risk of Lego kicking down doors and launching a lawsuit? Especially since EverBlocks look like just bigger versions.

@ekryski Most of the LEGO patents have expired and are unenforcable now. Apparently they've tried to argue that the brick shape/look is a trademark, but last I saw they weren't able to argue that case successfully. Robot Chicken, as always, has a surprisingly accurate cartoon to explain the situation:

This is fantastic. I would love to see a dedicated blog for this showing what people have done with their Everblocks. I have so many ideas!

@samdickie87 Thanks for the comment. You might want to try and play around building things on our virtual builder @ build.everblocksystems.com. We try to post images of what people built on our website but its sometimes tough to get people to send us pictures of the things they have built. I like the idea of expanding our blog and hope people will start to contribute and post their constructions when we do so!

@arnonrosan You should create a hashtag for customers to use that you feature on your social accounts and website. Give them a reward for sharing content

I'd though of this idea years ago when my kids were little and we often had a million legos everywhere. Why not have big ones that you could build actual houses with? Bravo to you for making this real!
