The brown falcon is nice, but quite rare.

I don't think I'm familiar with the brown falcon, but it sounds cool! I might try to find a few for myself.

I also ended up cutting Fool because I'm not sure how many people own a coxcomb hat (plus you seemed reluctant to give up yours), and the limited varieties available would place too many restrictions on the design of the whole outfit. Of course, it is possible to have a fool without such a hat, but I think it's kind of expected.

Well he isn't as pricey as I'd have guessed: [url]http://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalog ... {"color":8}[/url]. He came in King Leo's Castle.

I figured if I was to send one, I'd just bricklink one, but didn't want the hassle.

woohooo!!! I got mine!!!!!! Love the fig - never thought about doing the legs that way! That makes her the perfect chamber maid size. I do wonder though about the build - everything came in a bubble envelope and I only got so far to figure out how to reassemble it... any hints? :)

Glad you like it! Sorry that it exploded :woo:

Most of the parts go into the bed, which is attached to the lavender plate and sits flush against the wall and left hand edge. The red 2x2 tiles with headlights and 1x2 red tiles are part of the bed, that go on the side facing away from the wall. The SNOT RB 2x4 tile serves as the footboard of the bed. There should be a 2x2 jumper to go on the front/left hand side of the room, and the candle stick holder attaches to that.

And for a broom, the extra hairpiece connects to the rod. I have a picture of the assembled build I'll get for you later tonight :)

Mine is winging it's way. Paid for 2 day Priority mail, but it looks like it is more like 5 day mail. :?

Here is what I got, but my kids got ahold of the envelope and tore it up, so I don't recall who it came from:

A warrior princess.

Yes. That is what it said on the cape cardboard that is not in the picture, because I put it up so the kids would not get it and destroy it like they did the envelope. :D

I'm quite pleased with him, gruesome though he may be :lol: The accompanying vignette was great too :)

Mine arrived today!!!!!

Whoever sent this awesome handsome guy...you are a total tape fiend!

I adored that you wrapped the box and laughed for a good long time at all the tape it required. Took me quite some time to get into the box. But it totally made my day!!! You rock!!!! And gave me the best LEGO present.

I present: The Herald!
