I'm not a big fan of zwords, but that's about all that I see wrong with this fig. The decal is simple but very attractive, and once again you have a very good eye for colour. All that I would recommend doing is replacing the sword with a chrome silver greatsword.

Instead of the Zword I would use one of the original swords from the Yellow castle set. I would also use the helmets from the set - the helmet you have looks good as far as the right design but not the color. Chrome doesn't work for me for this figure. I realize the above substitutions may be a bit expensive but for one or a few figures may be worth it. But that's my opinion. As it stands the figure looks very cool - minus the Zword :) .

I disagree. :D The zword should go, if possible. If not possible, I can understand. Fortunately, they are not included in the latest Castle line.

God bless.

You like the zword?! Heresy! Have this man removed at once! That is of course just a little jest. I detest the zwords myself and think that any fig looks better without them. Other than the zword I really like this Templar. The silver helmet is a nice touch.

The decals are nice. I would definately get rid of the zword though. Also, I would use aBrickforge great helm. Although they are currently out of silver.
