natelite if you read my post carefully, you will find that I did NOT come to a conclusion. I happen to have been browsing the custom section earlier and noticed the designs. What I DID say, was that the designs looked very much like the queen and shaman and that the design "might" - (pleas...

Guys - don't want to depress anyone, but take a look at the following site http://www.flickr.com/photos/26056914@N03/sets/72157607019298003/ which I found by following a link from the Castle Customs page here. It's a guy named Roaglaan - if you check out the work he has in progress, it looks very mu...

Interesting but . . . . . . . too many small tower parts, they should have been the old corner tower parts (or the larger corner that only appeared in one or two sets), too many of the heavily printed black wall parts, the blue tall slopes are ok, but what about some blue tall CORNER parts ? ? ? Gat...

It was the first castle I ever got and was responsible for starting my castle addiction. It's a pity the sets these days are nowhere near as good.

I just wish I could have got several more.

Robert Carney's Castle Site

Has anyone else had trouble accessing Bob Carney's site, or is it only me ?

I keep getting an error message sayin the document has no data.

Has he moved to another site ?

I voted for re-designed. Actually I'd like to see old style castles re-released. As for the argument about the colour, like many people have already said, it's not going to change back and the only people hurt with a boycott are ourselves. What I'd really prefer is all of the old models re-released ...

I don't want to put a damper on things here, but I remember around this time last year when the preliminary Viking pictures began appearing. Everyone got all excited about the new beards, the Thor's hammer style new weapon. About the fact that the fort was shown with a roofed hall and that the ship ...

I tried emailing you but the message was returned as undeliverable.

I also left a private message for you, did you get it ?

Cyclonis - the link you provided I have viewed many times, however it only contains 5 torso's, the sixth one is missing! ! ! ! Damien - the sixth torso is shown in the link you provided, but what I'm after is something in the same style as those provided in the link from Cyclonis. Even better would ...

Viking Torso Query

Did anyone ever post a picture of the final 6th Viking torso ?

The one I mean is the torso with the dark blue arms, the design has two cross belts over a silver mail shirt with two round bosses at the shoulders and what looks like a brown neck piece.

Who cares what other people think anyway - I'm in my fifties and I still collect Lego. People who know me accept it for what it is, my hobby.

One of the best ways to respond is to show them Robert Carney's castle site (among others).

You guys are lucky, I sent off for some replacement parts over 3 months ago, and apart from the confirmation e-mail to say they had got my request, I haven't heard anything else from them. No parts, no message saying the parts are no longer available, no request for payment before posting anything t...

If I remember right, the prototype pictures of this set showed the boat being built from the larger boat part that comes in the pirate 4+ series - Peeron description is - boat 8 x 18 x 2&1/3. Using that part results in a larger size boat, but I agree with you, it would have looked heaps better w...

I don't know why people dislike the black armour. Personally I think it's one of the best designs, and is certainly better than the armour for Vladek in the latest castle.
