I agree, but I don't think leg stickers would hold up very well, i still play with him.

Every time I see this I think "what a GREAT knight"
Seriously - I think you have balanced the contrasts quite nicely and I think his followers would be able to find him easily on the battlefield.
Of course so would the enemy, but heck, thats kinda the point of knights bashing into each other, hey?

The white is appropriate here despite my own dislike of the color as the major color. It really works here, especially with the afore mentioned contrasts. I like the vignette you placed him in too. Just what did the Lasy say?

That's an understatement. I took a look and the prices seem downright exhorbitant! Especially for the non-customized regular Lego stuff. I wonder if they get many sales (not that they would tell me anyway).

PS I couldn't find a dragon image amongst the customs. Where'd you see it?

He has gotten 621 feedback in the past year. I guess that is pretty decent, but I wonder how many of his auctions never get a single bid, and how much money he ends up losing because of it.
Of his 621 total feedback, only 571 are positive (Ebay says he has a 95.5 or so percent positive feedback rating... I don't know how they came up with that, because I work that out to be around 91.9%. That's ridiculous that almost one in ten of his customers leaves dissatisfied.

He seems to have lots of trouble with USPS... buyers always say that it never came, and that he blamed postage. Fishy.

Nice looking white Knight. Though, looking at this pic... I wonder. Is he one of those guys who like tall(er) women?

It's always bugged me that LEGO women in dresses were so much taller than the men. Every girl I date is a good half-foot shorter than me, but every sigfig I make for them is half a head taller than mine. It's frustrating.

Yeah, the knight likes taller women...

He tried dating someone shorter than him, but it just didn't work out for them

Just kidding.
