Probably only the Football Player and Conquistador. The rest will be 1-3 of each as time goes on and/or the figures include enough parts I can cross into other uses. I am kind of grateful that this series is not as packed with army-types as they should carry stores along through the Christmas season, and I will have other fish to fry at that time.

I can see the Bavarian being useful for the hat, and possibly the torso (as a villager, if you're not too fussy about historical accuracy). Similarly the actor torso and ruff. And the conquistador is a nice fig. I can see there being perhaps more excitment in the Lego Pirate forums than Castle ones, but I guess you can't please everybody all the time!

As for army building... I've seen people army build gorillas, or skaters, or cheerleaders, so it's really each to their own!
Less talking, more MOCing.

I just "discovered" that the Cheerleader minifigure has a large "A" printed on her sweater. I will need a few of those now... to be my "A" Team. :lol:

I am liking the Conquistador and the Shakespearian Thesp, especially his Ruff. They'll give some of my mocs an Elizabethan feel. Managed to bag those two figures with a bit of deft bag handling. The alien queen also will be used for an evil sourceress with a small head change and the creation of a suitably menacing staff. Bagged the Pirate too and the Vampire Bat creature. Quite a good selection of "Evil" creatures. Not too sure about the bavarian guy though.

Thought i'd assemble a team of footballers. Then I realised they've all got the same sodding number on their armour. Mweh.

Cheerleaders it is instead :wink:

Snagged a complete set from Walmart in Elko. The fairy is, I think, my favorite.
