Lego Castle turns 35

Dear Lego Next year marks the 35th anniversary of the Castle theme. It all started with the Yellow castle back in 1978. Can we please see a reprisal or a reference to the classic yellow castle set in next years releases. [I don't have the actual yellow castle set .. and I'm guessing alot of us don't...

Re: Legends of Chima - Pics

Here is a link to a couple of the figures that have turned up on eBay. The auction has ended but you can see the great details on the minifigs. [even though he missed a couple of parts that hold the wings in the proper position] :D http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LEGO-LEGEND-OF-CHIMA-LOT-OF-3-MINIFIGURES-...

Re: Series 9 - Castle builders rejoice!!

I'm going with my guess that Dr Splitz is Lego's version of The Fly a half doctor half insect hybrid. It would fit with the Monster theme.

Re: What's your favorite non-castle torso?

Some of my favourite torsos to use are the one from this guy in the Indiana Jones line http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemInv.asp?M=iaj037 I think it works well on an evil Wizard. The Prince of Persia sets had some good torsos aswell http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemPic.asp?P=973pb651c01 http://...

Re: Legends of Chima - Pics

I'm actually looking forward to these sets. I have seen pics of the rest of the sets on another site and the figures that appeared on Ebay. Although some of the sets look strange the figures are great. Of the figures the Lion characters look the most cartoony. The Wolves look cool especially the one...

Re: The OTHER 2012 Lego Castle

I finished building the Vampires castle last night and I must say its very fun to build. Very few repetitive builds in this set. I know its not strictly a castle set but it has some great features. Most of the Lego castle from the castle line that i have built seem to be pretty plain and standard in...

Re: CC Set Review: 7009 The Final Joust

This is one of the first set that I picked up after my dark ages. This set was my first one to have the new [at the time] dark blue and pearl gold. I think this set is great for the price and what you actually get. There's a small amount of actually building with bricks. Some great new parts like th...

Re: Collectible Figs series 8 revealed

Not the most exciting range of figures but there's a few interesting figures. At least we get the white single plume released again. These can make great quills for the Shakespeare figure.
We get the barmaids hair in black [about time] and finally we get a proper Santa figure.

Re: LotR sets revealed!

I've found a quality issue with all the Gandalf arrives sets I've opened. 7 sets so far.. When you put the horse together you get a 1x2 brick and a 1x2 plate in brown to go on the back of the horse. The problem is that the plate matches the brown colour of the horse while the 1x2 brown brick is in a...

Re: BOOM! "The Hobbit" Minifigs Revealed!!

Bombor appears to have a flesh-colored bald spot on his head, which makes him a lock for inclusion in, "minifigs I sell to help pay for the set". Blech. Is it just me or does it look Bombors hair piece is separate from the beard. If its separate hopefully LEGO will release the hair piece ...

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

The Black knight looks pretty good if you sit him on the Ringwraiths horse from LOTR they both have the red eyes and silver decorations.

Re: Helm's Deep - Treat Yourself

I got this set a few days ago.. I'm not a fan of LOTRs but I do like castles. Its a nice build but the grey gets kinda repetitive.. I kept turning the pages and getting excited when it showed a colour that wasn't grey. I bought this set so that i can make it the keep of the Lion knights from the Kin...

Re: News: Death of the Classic Horse

I just got a 2 of the new horses yesterday. They look great and are the same size as the old ones but the head and skinnier legs make them seem a lot smaller. I've decided that the old horses are going to be Clydesdale's and the new ones will be regular horses. The new horses seem too small when you...
