TLC portrayal of them is :) Or was there really a Midgard Serpent?

The small catapult can fit inside the fortress but the other two are too big to fit through the doors... :(

The only way we'll see Vikings again, is in a new Castle line with them as the bad guys...

I got my first Viking's today and I am very impressed with them. Love the look and the shields. I'd encourage others to buy them while they have the chance, all the different torsos will be useful in the future.

In their mythology (*used* to be called "religion", but they don't even get that anymore), yes. Which makes the Viking line sort of a "Myth-ing" line, which could be used to explain the horned helmets.
...and that's how Equestria was made!
