Johnny Thunder MOC- Battle for the Scroll

Post by Graynar »

With the Key of the castle dock, and the priceless sword of King Leownis in his belt, Johnny Thunder (and his friends) travel deeper into the land of castles, to the mighty castle of King Leownis! This also leads Thunder closer to General Veeronis, the dreaded lord of war!

Read the back story

Take a look at the first two sets if you haven't:

The whole JT folder

Now for the newest set (you'll notice and increase in the use of the story):

Battle for the Scroll

Image

The smallest set, only 14.99 American, or 19.99 Canadian. With 3 figures and 122 pieces. This set features Sam Sinister's mini tank, one of General Veeronis's soldiers, and Johnny Thunder. In this set JT is fighting for the scroll, so he can locate King Leownis's golden crown. But Sam isn't going to make it easy.

Battle for the Scroll Special Feature: The small castle included can be destroyed by removing the spear from the wall. A spring system similar to the Pirate set -Volcano island is used. But it features a bit more as the spring also removes half of the wall.

Hope you enjoy the set. Please tell me what you think of it. ;)

I've been looking forward to seeing a set of this size ever since you started this series. I like the destroying spear feature; it's something that always sold sets to me when I was younger. And, true to LEGO form, you've included a catapult. :P Good work!

This looks the most Lego-like of them all, though it does appear to be a bit too violent for an actual lego set.

Impressive, that tank looks very cool. But like Athos said, for a 7+ set, theres a lot of weaponry...

As with all of these sets, I am very impressed with the newest addition. You have captured the feel of a "set" very well.

My only concern is with the tank. I like the design, but the treads don't seem quite perfect.

I apprecite the way you made the tree, and the final product looks very nice.

Nice work, and I'm definitely looking forward to seeing more in this line. (It's almost like getting real new sets to look at.

(You've also managed to bring me out of "lurker" status...)
