What does Cloud City, Slave 1 and Home One have to do with Palpatine's Arrest or what does Home One and Slave 1 even have to do with each other? You've got me puzzled there.

Set #: 7949 Set Name: Prison Carriage Rescue Pieces: 50 Price: ? Release: Summer 2010 Figs: 3 (2 x Lion & 1 x Dragon) S@H Bricklink This is one of the smaller sets from the upcoming LEGO Kingdoms. It has 3 minifigs, a horse, a carriage and some weapons. More box views: The rear of the box views the set "in action" and the sole play feature - opening (and closing) the rear hatch of the prison carriage - which is poorly designed in my opinion, but I'll get back to that. The side shows the 3 minifigs inside and the usual 1:1 scale picture of one of the minifigs. The other side shows the usual infos and states that the parts are made in: Denmark, Hungary, China and the Czech Republic. Which isn't the same as this set having "China-parts" in it. At least I couldn't spot any so far. The three minifigs look like this: I am impressed with the high level of quality in the prints, plus I think these new torsos are pretty friggin' awesome. New parts: The Helmet: What's not like about this? It adds a lot to the Castle theme and we've been needing one of these for ages. Thank you TLG for giving us this Horse Head Barding and Unicorn Part: Again I am almost stunned. The head barding isn't all that, but together with the unicorn part, it's great. The pearl gold colour should have been white, black or red in my opinion, but hopefully we'll get those pretty soon. Shields: Both, just to compare. I haven't got much to say. They're perfect and I can't wait to get my hands of plenty of them. Dragon: Lion: Swords: Two swords in this set and we get the new dark pearl one. The "full" set: As for the Prison Carriage, it's kinda poor. Few parts and a hideous rear hatch. Why? Well to me this looks like an army builder. It's a cheap set which gives you weaponry, figs, shields and stuff like that. The carriage will probably do well to most kids and to the rest of us, it's just spare parts. A fine set, which I predict to sell very well to both kids and AFOLs globally. What's your thoughts on this?
