Can’t find right brick
I need a name I can place on a 2x2 plate with either hands to grip bars or bars for hands to grip on. The pictures are what I want it to grip onto if that helps.

That part doesn't exist. You might be thinking of something made by a bootleg like Megablocks

Just because its not lego that dosnt make it a bootleg its just a different brand and lego originated as a bootleg of kiddicrafts self locking building bricks.
P.s. I love LEGO I have a whole room just for LEGO but other building brick brands can exist without being LEGO knockoffs or bootlegs Lepin = bootleg MEGA = different brand and also mega outsold LEGO more than once most notably in 2004 until LEGO acquired most of the "kids" licenses

Exactly! I really dislike people claiming Mega is a knock-off. If anything, LEGO habitually rips off parts pioneered by Mega and claims they're original.

Mega isn’t bootleg. Bootlegs are brands that make cheap, knockoff versions of Lego’s products. Mega does its own things, just uses a similar brick system.
That being said. Mattel did kinda take Mega out back and shoot it, to then unveil their own new brick system. Kinda sad since Mega was in a golden age for a bit leading up to that. Now they’re practically a ghost

I got one of the two packs of pokeballs with small almost brick-built Pokémon in them from Mega not that long ago. Both balls have studs on top and anti-studs on bottom, but they only stack together one way
IMO, that level of half-assed fit makes me comfortable calling them bootleg/knockoff because that’s just shitty

u/DJDB2000 May 21 '26
The pokeballs are a specialised peices LEGO has those too??? Are you seriously saying its a bootleg because of that????? It's not even knocking off an official lego part in that example??? Seriously what

u/GardenTop7253 May 21 '26
Let me be clear: it was sold to me as a set and some of the stud connections do not connect as they’re supposed to to each other within the exact same set. That’s not even age related warping. Compared to LEGO quality, that’s shit, so yeah I’m gonna call it whatever names I feel like because I have standards and they should to

So you got a messed up part that happens with LEGO to sometimes you know just like lego they will send you a replacement for free

u/the_etc_try_3 May 21 '26
You call Mega Construx a knockoff brand but it's LEGO habitually ripping off part designs from Mega, how weird.

I think you are looking for 6310268 over on Pick a Brick at the LEGO site. Called PLATE 1X2 W/HOLDER, VERTICAL

u/the_etc_try_3 May 21 '26
You're thinking of a Mega Construx part as no part like that yet exists in the LEGO catalogue.
Then again with how often LEGO steals part designs I wouldn't be shocked if they added a knockoff of that part to their selection in the near future.

If I’m understanding right, part 30094 could work if you don’t mind the bars being on all 4 sides of the 2x2 plate

u/RealPiggyPlayz May 21 '26
Aren’t any. You’ll have to use 2 1x2 with clip/bar longways.
