Re: Series 7.... It's a Boar! (and other castle parts)

I noticed yesterday after randomly searching "Lego Knight" on Google. that the Evil Knight's "Angry Boar" is striking close the the Black Knight from Monty Python fame. Here is the Lego shield: http://www.bricklink...asp?P=2586pb004 and here is the Black Knight's crest: http://ww...

Re: Mill village raid house.

I like the style too, it looks very "thatched" like houses from that period would be. I also agree that it's a bit too big. It shouldn't be as large as the barn as that should be the focal point of the farm scene. The other thing I noticed was the green plate on the bottom. Perhaps have a ...

Re: What cliché’s do you dislike?

I had a good friend write a short story in college that revolved around the "farm boy hero" getting accidently killed in the his first battle against the "evil" and the rest of his band having to figure out how to win a battle that wasn't possible. **spoiler** Evil wins. :) It wa...

Re: Lego 10223 Kingdoms Joust Exclusive

I really like the Falcons. I only had a few back in the 80's but I've bought a few more since I now have the money to do it. :) The Falcons are great, and I do hope they come back, however, I have to agree with many of the posters here. We won't know what LEGO is really going to do with the Falcon's...

Re: Lego 10223 Kingdoms Joust Exclusive

I'm curious to see if the Black Falcon's return is merely a one time instance or if it harkens a complete return of the Falcons.

If it is a complete return, can we expect the Forestmen and the Wolfpack to be far behind?

Re: Lego 10223 Kingdoms Joust Exclusive

Generally, regardless of historical accuracy, I like to have the kite/ovoid shields for my leaders/generals. They just look more impressive and leaderly?

Re: Lego 10223 Kingdoms Joust Exclusive

I stand corrected.

However, I still think the knight should have an ovoid shield.

Re: Mixing factions

I tend to break them up by noble houses. Their crests are the house they belong too. So, regardless of the printing I feel that have a place. Granted this is probably because I have very small armies and can't really afford to have all of the new soldiers. That and I really like the wolfpack and the...

Re: Lego 10223 Kingdoms Joust Exclusive

My only real dissappointments with this set are: 1. The lack of a second Black Falcon soldier 2. The Black Falcon Knight is carrying a kite shield and not an ovoid one. Otherwise, I'm very excited to see this set. My Black Falcon's have needed a proper leader for a long time. Now, I'd like a proper ...
