What New Heraldry Do You Want?

Post by Teh Stud »

OK, so the new line Lego released looks pretty nice, but I'm a little disappointed that they are doing Lions again. The dragon heraldry looks good, but is still a redo.

So, what animal, creature or symbol would you like to see that hasn't been done before? (I am leaving out real world religious symbols because I don't think Lego will ever do them...)

Just to make things interesting, you can choose two for a new castle line...

I know we've discussed this before... But I'd like to see a Boar or a Bear. Of your choices, a unicorn or a griffin would be nice.

Blazing Sun. Why? Because i think it would change things up from being mostly animal to something still awesome.

That, and I absolutely HATE the Lion Kingdom faction. :mad: It's just so boring.

I voted for Rooster, but a Boar, Bear, Sun, Moon...or anything that hasn't been done before would be nice.
Lions are becoming a bit cliche.

Griffin is my #1, but I'd love to see a bear or boar as well.

Hasn't the Bear been done? (Granted, not done well).

A boar would be interesting if done right...

I am moving this thread to Dear Lego since this topic is asking for future castle sets and not discussing existing sets. Thanks.

Yes, but so has your unicorn, kind of: http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemPic.asp?P=3846pb20. And yes, I don't like that bear and would like to see a better (less mecha-eqsue) one. Same with the unicorn.

Yes, forgot about that one. I don't really like any of those style shields, but you could call that a unicorn. (Although I think it is really barding on a horse).

I'd vote for a Boar and a Ram off the top of my head. In all honesty though, I'd prefer an updated bird and stag design.

Of yours I went with crossed swords, but what I'd really like is a Scottish thistle design. Something like these: http://www.gaelsong.com/fullsize/145111/2 (Pendant on the left) or http://www.gaelsong.com/fullsize/145091/2

Well, I had to go with the Tower Choice, given my username but also I have been wanting a Tower design for a new faction of Dwarves...I would have also picked the Fleur de Lis had I known we could have picked two a half a second after I clicked on the vote button. :oops:

I think that LEGO will be revamping the old heraldry such as the Black Falcons and Forestmen next after the Lions/Dragons giving us a newer Eagle/Falcon and Stag design. :D

Griffin all the way, but I'd second a Templar Cross just because it's historically important.

Silly me, I didn't realize you could vote for more than one. :oops:

Anyways, besides what I already mentioned, I would like to see crossed swords as well as a boar or bear.
