You're right count, although he is widely known and loved he will always be shrouded in myth and legend. :)

I had to vote for Majisto just out of sheer childhood nostalgia.

I prefer the newer figures. My favorite wizard is the Good Wizard. I like his printed legs with the pouch, vial, etc., and his printed hat. I wish he would have been more widely available in the US. Tied for second favorite is the Evil Wizard and Witch, for the unique printing on legs/dress and torso. I don't have the Troll Sorceress yet, but i'm sure she'll move into a three-tie for second once I do, also for the printing.

I think the most useful wizard is Majisto. If I could have multiples of any wizard, it would be him. Swap out the hat for hair, remove the beard, and/or change the head and you have many possibilities for different peasent characters. Without the pointy hat and wand, nothing on his printed torso really identifies him as a wizard.

If I had to pick one, I'll go with Majisto. I value all of them because all are excellent. I was so happy when LEGO came out with Majisto and all the rest. :D

Baa...
Think I'll be a sheep and follow the rest of the herd.
I'll vote for Merlin ..[Majisto] he was the first and still stands out from the rest of crowd. Who else could get away with a bright blue outfit and a fairy wand. :D

Well this poll has come to an end and it seems Majisto has won by a long shot :lol: . The good wizard came second if anyone wants to know. I would say that this poll was very successful and thanks to everyone who voted and took time to comment.

Thanks again everyone :)

Majisto will always be my favorite wizard. I can remember seeing the wizard of blue all the way back when I first started collecting. The character has been in many of my favorite sets, generally stands out as the most visually appealing, and I just cannot see any lego wizard replaces Majisto in my mind. Although, while I am almost positive about my sorcerer claims, I would find it interesting if a new wizard was put into production that challenged my favoritism. Nice poll...

So I just noticed that evil wizard just uses Ogel's face with a white pupil? That's a little disappointing.

I was never a big fan of the wizards. Give me a trusty sword and shield. That's all I need.
