Probably a highly debatable topic, but have people here experienced non-Lego bricks that are compatible with Lego (no Megablocks or others)? How was it? (sopuli.xyz)

I've built some Blue Brixx sets (Star Trek!) and the piece quality was great except for one or two bad molds out of a thousand or two pieces.

I've also built a gifted Pacific Rim Jaeger set from Amazon where the color came off on my hands in a really upsetting way. The pieces themselves were of ok quality except for the color.

My kid have bought some micro brick sets at touristy sites, and they aren't great.
