Hmm, I think I count only 17 pieces. You've used one and a half flower sprues, which I'm pretty sure TLG counts as a single piece in their counts. Much like the knife and the coins. Who dares to do the research?

Trust me, I think I'm funnier than you do.
Why do I have to add the word "minifig" to my spell checker every time I use it?!

I didn't think about that actually, if you count the flowers as 2 pieces (1.5 sprues = 6 petals) then I guess I'm at 15 pieces.

So here's my entry - I just HAD to remove my old lurker account and activate a new one as Lord Pappadhum for this...

Thief by Lord P∀ppadhum, on Flickr

There comes a time, thief...
...when the jewels cease to sparkle, when the gold loses its luster, when the throne room becomes a prison, and all that is left is a father's love for his child. Providing a delayed-blast fireball trap doesn't incinerate you first, that is!
  • Includes Thief minifigure
  • Features trapped chest, flames, and smoke
  • Can be used with the "Burnt skeleton" impulse set to provide endless hours of playing fun!

He who thinks you should look at the box that says "Quaraga" if you want to find out his username (about as useful to you as his real name). he only wants you to look so he can laugh about you looking there because he's a total smart...

I actually got my torso and legs from the king minifig in 7946 King's Castle, but yeah, it's the same.

This minifig is traveling on his raft to the Classic-Castle impulse challenge. :D this set has 15 pieces and a fig.

And so he slipped into the forest, vanishing without a trace, leaving his pursuers lost without ideas, while he went to finish his MOC's.

Here's where they are:

I guess that you (Blaze Ryder) show a gong farmer, or am I am mistaken?
You can see my MoCs on [url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/legoorci/]my Flickr Account[/url] and you can see them also on [url=http://legoorci.wordpress.com/]my Blog[/url] where you also can read the stories behind the MoCs...but in german.

You're right, I had considered using that in homage to the forum rank, but I personally find the "Fertilizer Finder" title to have a more adventurous appeal because of the name. And since this was a challenge to create an impulse set, I find the title chose gave it a better marketing aspect than "Gong Farmer" would (the real definition of a gong farmer isn't so pleasant, and might damage sales.)

Hi all,

here I present you my impulse set...
I thought, I made some box art for better presentation. :twisted:


The Torturer

Item #: 7951
Ages: 5-12
Pieces: 17

He’s a wiz at making pain!

This bearded torturer consults nobody and uses his whip to hear, what he wants to hear!

* Includes Torturer minifigure
* Features whip, torture instruments, rack, cobwebbed torch and little gray rat.
* Add this authentic LEGO® Torturer minifigure to your Lego® Kingdoms collection.

And without box art!


Hope you enjoyed what you saw! :wave:
