What's not to like about the new castle theme?
The figs look like something "real" as opposed to the darn KK theme. (purple knights :-X )
I think it's a really cool theme and I've already purchased the entire theme and even triplicates of several boxes. Building the castle reminds me of the ol' classic castle theme and with a few minor MODs, it'll be exactly just that.
Pros: EVERYTHING
Cons: None whatsoever. - Even the dragons are cool (remember this is primarily a kids toy). Their sturdiness allows for great play and swooshing. :-P

Ok. This is somewhat fun to read, but I cannot see why it's here in the "General news section" - shouldn't this kind of post be in the community where babble threads belong?

Here's my 5 cents on this topic.
It's a fake and even if the box images promise You a box full of LEGO like bricks IT'S A LIE!
I've bought a Chinese copy set containing what was to be Forrestmen. The box had images and they looked 99% like the REAL DEAL. When I opened the box the bricks were badly molded and had various versions of colours. For example the yellow bricks were not the same yellow :-X Actually I think they use REAL DEAL LEGO for the box design (the LEGO mark is later removed digitally) thus luring us into buying those crappy sets.
Save Your money - Don't buy pirated LEGO products.
BTW I couldn't get rid of mine, I even tried to give it away - so I had to throw it into the garbage.
Stay cool - buy the REAL high! :-D

To me it looks like they're losing the game.
Ain't no game being played whilst banging Your head in the opponent's stomach X-D
- That is a perfect picture of why You shouldn't let Your team play in the Swedish national colours - YOU'LL LOSE. ;-)

Soccer :-X *n*
Sorry *yoda* I had to go for the intertextuality of Copmike's. And nothing like Jar Jar being crushed whilst he is speaking with an Austrian (?) accent. "Hasta La Vista, Baby!" X-D

It sounds like a great idea.
Using this forum to create small events in the different regions of Europe, that is.
Though it'll never replace the EB Event.
Perhaps one could even negotiate a real good bargain with a local LEGO store.
"Hey Mister! I'm having a LEGO get-down with a bunch if lunatic friends - we come here and spend BIG money - what offers can You give us?"
Negotiator ON!

PS The official LEGO store near me has closed |-/ So I guess a "mini-event" near me is out of the question!
I have most of the needed things in my BL store. But since that isn't an option for You, how'd You expect to get them from anyone? You want to trade? What do You have to trade? Kinda odd to ask for stuff, without offering anything.

PS Store is currently closed for the summer
Wauw *wub* *wub* *wub*
I must have several of those. That troll and the axe heads look awesome.
Thank You LEGO for making such a great new castle theme.
Take that KK

Now that kind of comment does not make me like You.
Seems like Your semi-spamming days might soon be coming to an end.
Perhaps You should have a server of Your own.

EDIT: AND IT'S MISTER NUDESWOOSHER FOR YOU
That's typical.
The question is "what to expect?" and the first thing that (apparently) pops into everyone's mind is: KIDS.
Sure there'll be loads of kids - it's a LEGO universe. But why not focus on all the good things that'll be there?
I simply can't understand why You guys start out with a pessimistic view *n* *n*
IMHO the LEGO universe is going to be a great place with a sorts of entertainment.
Building and vehicle construction -- and TESTING. Perhaps as indicated in the trailer there'll even be as sort of RPG zone where one can fight skeletons and EVIL pirates (yes EVIL :-P ).
I for one am waiting for this to hit cyberspace with great anticipation.
SO PLS STOP YOUR USELESS AND SOMEWHAT PATHETIC FLAMING OF THE INTENDED BUYERS/PLAYERS - YES THE KIDS AGED 7-11.

Yep - the reason for my title is an old story - the title is quite new - read after the last event. I got it as mentioned earlier in this thread :-| (Don't You read the thread??)
Check page 3 of this thread for my version
