Does anyone know when the "Good Wizard" will be available in the USA at S@H?

I also bought a few of the knight (30) but am debating whether to get more later. Hard to resist. Would love to have a dwarf or Orc impulse set to go along with the Knight and Wizard.

Hi,
today i just received my impulse knight (it's only one, because i ordered dwarfs mine and bought it as extra, same with wizard)

What i noticed in my version is the shield: the light und dark blue are switched


By the way, it's a very good set

Welcome to Classic-Castle!

What i noticed in my version is the shield: the light und dark blue are switched

That's strange....

I noticed it on the Dwarven shield from the Mine set but didn't think that they would switch the Crown knight's version. This is not good as I have roughly 30 footmen with shields the earlier version and 30 of this set with the newer version. Why would LEGO be this cruel?

I'm not entirely sure that they did switch them. My copies of this set all came with the same shields as the ones from the other sets. I'm guessing that this was a mistake and nothing more, though I cannot be sure.

In Christ,

I don't know if it's LEGO being cruel. Think back to Classic Castle. The Black Falcons and the Crusaders both had two different versions of their shield - BF with blue outline and yellow outline, Crusaders with gold lion on blue field and blue lion on gold.

And now the Crown Knights have two shields, with the pale/dark blue quartering pattern switched.

Well if it's actually a misprint, consider yourself lucky. Alot of fans love these sort of things. It really adds variety to the line. I've purchased a few of these impulse sets, yet I haven't come across one of teh reversed shields yet. Either way, I don't think it is a bad thing.

Later.

I only bought two, but they also have the reversed quadrants on the shields.

Maybe there was a fault in the <for european collectors - production>^^ I think it is like the shields of the black falcons, on which the falcon is looking to the right and rarely looking to the left.

I just received my knight from s@h and I wish I had ordered more. I like the new torso style and that the set comes with a nice assortment of arms and armor. I also like the face they chose for this little guy--nothing too over the top. This set makes me ready for "The Good Wizard" to be released here in the US.

i pre-ordered 5 sets of it a couple days ago, should receive it anytime next week. can't wait to get them. the new torso/armor/weapons look so good!

argh, amazon is having problems by getting the new sets and they can't deliver them now. so now i cancelled the order and ordered them straight at shop at home. will make more shipping costs, but anyway.

I just got my order in. The neat thing about this is that you get one knight already, but you can use the helmet, armor, and sword to make another knight. Here are a few pics of what I did with mine. This is defiently the best army builder set out there right now. I was considering buying a few copies of the chess set when they become half off, but that would mean I would have a bunch of skellies.

Hob,
That is a great idea! The nice thing about the armor that comes with the knight is that it is unmarked (no emblems), and therefore very versatile. I will have to order a few more sets...
