Bows
Dear LEGO,
A minifigure accesory I, and some others probably, would like to see a increase in the frequency they appear currently is the longbow. You use it in one set now, and that also happens to be the most expensive set. To do this, it would require no new mold. Just phase out most, not all, of those ugly pearl silver crossbows.
What does everyone else think?

Yes, I would like to second the notion of an Orc archer set, either with a new bow or the old one.Heir of Black Falcon wrote: I just would like to see more sets, smaller ones perhaps with bows. Maybe a troll archer set?

All I have are crossbows, and I too would really like more regular bows and quivers.

More of the longbows, definitely. Hopefully with the upcoming elves in 2009, we'll see a return of the classic bow and quiver.

I think a standard bow no arrow and a long straight-bow no arrow would be nice additions to the Lego© inventory.

You can use the back quivers as waist quivers. I've done that more than once.Heir of Black Falcon wrote:Yeah Voran thats what I think. We already have access to alternative bows. I just want the old ones back. I'd prefer a waist quiver as there is little indication they used back quivers in the medieval period. In the end if they rerelease the back quiver I'd almost be just as happy though!
