In the black castles mostly the prefab wall pieces are black, the bricks are mostly grey.Emperor James wrote:So the new gray is a legitimate concern, so why not 6085 or 6086? If you don't want the figs because they are sturdier now, all I can say is that you are completely insane.
Which is why I'm thinking we should go for a grey castle now. If we're going to get bley, lets get a LOT of it.Jojo wrote:And nobody said they didn't want new figs because they are sturdier now. I said you can't put new figs to a model and pretend you have a complete set from the 80s.quote]
Good, because I think everyone here realizes that a rerelease isn't the original set. That doesn't mean we don't want a rerelease (even in bley) anyway.

Do you mean you're voting for 6085, or are requesting its rerelease right now? Though right now it is tied for first, the idea is to wait until we can reasonably say we have chosen one set,and then all bombard tlc with emails ect.xxbattosaixx wrote:I'lll send an e-mail.For my chioce,the Black Monarchs Castle.

You already can replace... better build the set with old grey bricks now. So no need for a rerelease. As for the figs: Collector-wise it's not possible to replace original figs with rereleased figs because new figs have this massive structure inside that older figs don't have.rogue27 wrote:[No, but it would become a lower priority. Much like 1680 is a low priority for me because I already have 1877. Besides, I'd replace all of the grey with old grey, so it would look authentic upon casual inspection.
Also, a Legend set would make it fairly easy for me to accumulate a large number of brand new forestmen minifigs.
Of course that doesn't matter much if you only want a large quantity of those figs not necessarily meant to be part of an original set.
