This is awesome, Andy! Thanks for putting the effort in to make such a great production!

It would be cool if we got an RPG-themed line of CMFs centered around medieval fantasy with lots of non-human heads, and they took this approach. That way, if you got duplicates, you could have a male and female version of each fig....

Use a small digital scale and you'll *easily* be able to ID the Batlord, Goatherd, and Barbarian figures (their weights are unique enough that they won't be confused with any other fig, even with the small variations due to glue, calibration, etc.). You can pick up a scale for like $10-15, which eas...

Such a fun set! I am excited to get my hands on one of these once they are available.

AND A GRAY GOAT!

Merry Christmas, Athos!

According to Bricklink, the 32x32 baseplate in Tan was first released in 1997, in set #6559 "Deep Sea Bounty". https://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemIn.asp?itemType=P&itemNo=3811&in=A&v=1&oV=Y&colorID=2&srt=2&srtAsc=A You can look this kind of info up by searchin...

I like this a lot! It's very readable, even at a relatively small scale of 48x48. The helmet plumes in particular are extremely well done! If I were to offer feedback, it would be to go with a color other than yellow/orange for the sky/backdrop in the upper half of the mosaic, to bump up the contras...

I really was looking forward to this GWP, but it let me down in far more ways than it met expectations. In no particular order of disappointment magnitude: 1 - no dragon plumes 2 - no dragon shield 3 - unprinted Majisto (why not use the BAM version that is WAAAY cooler and already exists, especially...

I posted a clarification edit to custom parts - you can use custom cloth and non-LEGO string. This exception most commonly is used for sails and/or rigging in a ship. I personally also use a lot of third-party capes because LEGO ones are *expensive*. My general rule for capes would be "don't ma...

OMG, I didn’t even think about there being a difference in techniques! I’m glad there aren’t restrictions regarding those, because I have no idea what’s considered a “modern build technique” compared to what I’m doing now. I'm actually looking forward to seeing what "modern" techniques ca...

Haha, thanks Blue! We had a blast on the show and made a lot of new friends. Of course, the community element, as always, is the real prize when it comes to LEGO!

Agreed! That's my favorite feature also! The upturn of the brim makes it look like a very natural "peeking out" from under the hat.

Great little MOC all-around!

As questions come up, please make sure they're asked in the pinned topic so we can ensure all Q&A is in one spot.

Thanks and we look forward to seeing what you all come up with this year!

I had a blast designing it, hope those of you who get one really enjoy the build process! It felt super surreal to work on an official LEGO Castle product more than 10 years after joining this forum as a young castle fan :D I also tried to make sure it's a great general medieval building parts pack...

Thanks ol' buddy! We *HAD* to rep castle, of course!
