my first dwarf

[timber_wolf899]

Ok guys, i really really was not going to make a dwarf army! I was going to sell off my dwarves or trade em, but....... I got a dwarf mine sat<for 45 bucks!!!.> and i just love my dwarves.

The guy with the red beard, Gimli! I am impressed. Man if the elves are this good.

Anyway, has anyone else felt the same upon actually having dwarves in hand?

I was going to sell off my dwarves or trade em, but.......

Does this mean you're not going to trade 'em anymore?
That's too bad, cause I found out I love them just as much as you once I finally had some. I just want more now

[timber_wolf899]

Oh i'm an American capitalsit pig. I'll sell, trade anything!

this just means i'll ask for more in exchange!

[melonkernel]

Yes, when i got the Dwarv's Mine, they became my favourite minifigs. They are sweet.

[Lewa Rocks]

I don't have any Dwarfs... yet. I want to get a few soon.

[dragonblade24]

i didnt get the dwarfs mine but i got some traded to m by my friends and now i have about 10!

I was actually not all that impressed with trh dwarves. Yes, they were very cool, but they can't wear armor, and only limited helmets. I'm probably going to stick with the dwarves I was using before, using Hagrid's beard.

Give them longer legs and they're Vikings.

I dont have any dwarves but I will soon.

The new dwarves have their disadvantages but to me they are much more advantages. I like them. I still will keep using ones with the face print beards for armoured dwarves with full helmets but will use the beards as well. Gives a nice variety to them and allows some to wear armour. I will post my favorite dwarves up soon...

I like the fact that the torsos are printed even though the beards wll cover said torsos.

I think my favorite beard is the strait black one.

What weapons do you guys find work best with your dwarves?

[legobear]

If all works out well, we will see a dwarf battle pack (if lego loves us) by 2009. The second best thing would be an impulse set : ).

If we get those elves by 2009, we can hope for an elves' battlepack by 2010!!!! HAHAHAHA omg I think I really teared.

I have a dozen dwarves thanks to 3 dwarven mines. They are my favorite castle guys realeased yet. However since my smallest faction of men is 25 guys I need more before they can join in my armies. Now that the new sets are out I am sure the ranks will fill quickly.

Give them longer legs and they're Vikings.

Only the torso is a viking piece and has been said you can't even see it. The beards are unlike anything lego has made in the castle line. The beard, the cool helms, and the short legs makes them unlike any other characters in the castle realm. They look stocky andcompact and strong just like a dwarf should. Congrats lego on a job well done.

Unfortunately the dwarf with the troll ship and the dwarf with the mine defender both have the same beard. Since you really can't see the torso, the beard is what makes the dwarves look unique. I don't want tons of the same looking dwarves so I may have to wait for the chess set or buy more of the mine sets to build up a decent force... A dwarf impulse set next year would be fine but it better not have another red beard! A battle pack would be the ultimate! You know there would be variety in that!

By the way hammers and axes are my weapons of choice for the dwarves. I'm a traditionalist.

thats awsome DALE_DVM i thougght the dwarf function was succesful but will they continue it?

The 2008 Advent Calender for Castle shows a picture on the front of a Dwarf with the brown beard. It's the army builder set I WILL be saving for.
