I got the jester, and he was white, a good sign I would say. Since the actual fig isn't made in China, just the hat, possibly the pink was contained in only certain sets? Or a certain batch?

Two fresh nominations,

#6067 Guarded Inn - Nominated by Jojo

#4894 Mythical Creatures - Nominated by DarkTemplar

I find it most interesting, and encouraging, that Jojo himself has graced this search with his nomination.

But I must ask, do the rest of you agree with him?

I say, let what is going to happen anyway, happen. Names will eventually be applied to these factions, whether we consciously choose them or not. We've seen it before, and we'll see it again. If we don't happen to use whatever names TLC gives us, we'll just end up with our own. Like the Crown Knight...

Great review Dale. It has really given me a much better view of the set. Having read your thoughts, and seen your pics, I have to say that I find the set much better designed than I had originally thought. It does look pretty decent, and as you said, the gatehouse is a huge plus. The roof of the tow...

Six long years ago...

Well, today is a rather memorable occasion for me. It is for starters my 2000th post! This is more than noteworthy in itself, especially since I have tried (tried being the operative word) to make each and every post of mine interesting and worthwhile. Looking back at my earlier ones, one can obviou...

Good to see Harold is still getting around.

Question though, how large has his pile of aquired items grown? Is it possible to make a list or take a quick pic of all the stuff he has gotten? I'm rather curious to see what has changed since he was here. And is he still in the Doom tube?

Seems to be the castle to build right now.

An ambitious project to be sure. When finished that thing is going to be massive! But it looks to be going along just fine. That cannon he built is rather intriguing as well.

Considering the location of the photoshoot, I imagine you got a few compliments on it. Solid job Sava, solid job. Complete attention to detail on all of it, and some great detail too. Love the windows and every aspect of the interior. My favorite thing about it all is that while it is a stunning bu...

Interesting find, to be sure. It makes one wonder if both prints aren't out there. If so, one would probably be more common than the other, and that would make the less common one something a of a rarity. I could go for that. What would be really cool would be if in different sets that have this pie...

Nice critters, very nice critters. You captured the feel of each animal very well. Both the colouring and positioning make them instantly recognizable. And if you are concerned about "castle-appropriateness", just think of it as fantasy, and you're all good. Great job as always.
