This is an interesting question. While I'm not sure that any lego fan can have too many minifigs, I do believe That an overly large collection of minifigs can become quite boring. Large numbers of similarly dressed figures do not really excite me. I often wish that persons who chose to collect these...

This is certainly one of the better sets lego produced before the castle line began to nosedive. Unfortunately, it was also when I experienced my first dark ages, so I never actually took the opportunity to purchase a copy of it. Still, I must say, I really like the design of 6057. Its refreshing wh...

Looking at that image of Vladek, I must say that I am pleasantly surprised. If this re-imaging carries over to the KK2 mini-figs, I may actually pick up a few more KK2 sets. Lego seems to have listened to its fans in a few respects, droping the heavily modernized design elements of KK2 for elements ...

Allthough I'm not a big fan of KK2, I don't think that television is the reason a traditional medieval theme doesn't appeal to this generation of children. As society has become increasingly multi-cultural, the eurocentric castle theme has lost its alure among young audiences. I believe lego has tri...

So size DOES matter.

Seriously, this is a truly amazing piece of work! Its unfortunate that more builders aren't able to work at this scale. Its too bad there isn't a competition for the best huge castle as this would certainly take first prize!!

I've been looking at this MOC for on and off for the past couple of days. This is without a doubt one of the most brilliant creations I've ever seen.

I don't really have a preference for any of these kings, but I like the chess king's torso (or at least I liked it before it became so common) so I voted for him. If I could have, I would have voted for the black monarch (6034). Its too bad that he died before any of these guys came onto the scene.

Yeah, sorry about that. When I first tried to submit, Seige Weapons wasn't listed. Maybe it was just me.

Um, this is my first time writing on this board. I must commend the administration for organizing the second CCC but I noticed that the "submit an entry" form doesn't include seige weapons. I was wondering when the entry page will be updated.
