I find the small fig interesting. It show a wider upper torso. Brawn.Here are the deep links to Brickshelf pics of my Mega Bloks/Lego knight and the large minifig I made.
I feel the small fig should fit well with other LEGO minifigs.
Thanks.

Re: Minifig pics
Very cool. The knight has a very LOTR(movie) feel to it. And the big guy looks like the basis for cave trolls and other such LOTR big beasties.David C. wrote:Here are the deep links to Brickshelf pics of my Mega Bloks/Lego knight and the large minifig I made.

I could be considered a blasphemer and I fear no wrath. I have purchased one or two of the Megabloks tins out of curiosity. I must say they are not that bad. For those out there who can't afford the $2.75 USD average for a castle fig, I think they are a decent alternative.
Would I make an army out of them? No.
Will I buy more? Probably not.
Do I regret buying them? No.
The only reason I don't plan on getting more is that I am in brick buying mode. I am only going to purchase brick until I see what the new Castle and Harry Potter lines look like in person. If they are as high priced and dissapointing as they look. I may decide to buy more Megaloks and I won't feel bad about it.
When it comes to the hobby of building, I would prefer Lego, but if their product releases continue to disappoint... perhaps a dark ages will be in order.
Still hoping that a new castle Legend will be released and as a wide release retail item. Then perhaps I'd have a reason to be a purist...

After a long absence, I have returned. I can't wait to start building again.

Blockos
I think that Blockos (my pet term for Megawhatnots, derived from that one episode of The Simpsons) are good (a relative term, mind you) for weapon diversity, without taking the enormous effort of crafting your own custom weaponry. The shields, to a degree, match with the Black Knight faction's dragon shields--but that is a stretch, I'll admit. The hatchets make for okay, ancient Dwarf axes, or something to that effect. Are there any Blocko swords in production? It would be cool to have a couple of "ancient" swords in circulation in my LEGO Castle world.

Yes, I'll agree the swords and weapons are great, but the "Warfang" weapons are loose and easily broken. I like the tins, but the men are not very manueverable and their limbs wear out, and the main sets (Save the "Man 'O War") are very clumsy and fall apart with a flick. I gave myself blisters building Draigar Castle, a very torturous experience I had to go through many times over every time it fell over!

Re: Blockos
The new Norvagen faction has them. you can also get a cool new axe in their War chest (Tin).Pacificus wrote:I think that Blockos (my pet term for Megawhatnots, derived from that one episode of The Simpsons) are good (a relative term, mind you) for weapon diversity, without taking the enormous effort of crafting your own custom weaponry.

I had 2 MB sets, got them as presents, and donated them to charity! They were never mixed with LEGO, instead they stayed in a box far away from my LEGO. I would never EVER buy another MB set again. They are junk!
