  1. I have the old fort legoredo set and I love it. That being said, I will buy the cavalry builder set for sure. The train looks pretty promising too, I would love to add a train to my western collection. i could switch all the new colors to the default old ones to make it look more classic as well. The Captain J. Fuller minifigure also might be bringing in a new frontier (no pun intended) for legos, that being hair attached to heads. Did you notice he has hair coming out of his hat? I haven't seen that on any other fig before :D
  2. I second that, i really hop this rumor is not true.
  3. True, flatfoot did have a nose but don't know why. I agree with captain settle, I think it is outrageous too!
  4. Those are the proper names for te bandits, about noses, one reason they discontinued ww is that the Indians had seperate heads, the difference being that they had noses, so it was considered racist.
  5. It seems like lego would want a classic "cowboys vs Indians" in the western theme. Also TC, I can't find any page in an American Mania magazine about the Indians, As if they never existed. But I did in the uk catalog. If you know of a page with Indians could you send a link
  6. Ah yes, now I see it. I have another question. I've searched but nothing came up, about whether or not the Cavalry soldiers and Indians are fighting each other. Either lego lets the kids decide that, they aren't fighting or obviously they are at war. Anyone know?
  7. Very Impressive build! I like all the flat tiles over studded tiles, it always looks better!
  8. Just found the Magazine but it says nothing about 7th cavalry. Where did it mention 7th cavalry? Ps. the famus George Armstrong Custer was colonel of the 7th cavalry and died in the battle of Little Bighorn, in South Dakota. 200 cavalry soldiers (all of them) died in this battle.
  9. TC, you said big chief rattlesnake is the UK's name for him and the seventh cavalry is the name of the cavalry, what source is that? Could you perhaps send a link to the magazine?
  10. Aha! In a lego mania magazine Dewey cheatum "tells" a tale that takes place in 1884 and he also says "a while back in 1884" so lego western takes place tiny bit after 1884!
  11. Since I reAlly get into history, I can't help but wonder, did lego release an exact date that WW takes place? I already know somewhere in the late 1800s, but any exact dates? Ps Well I guess not old timers but I didn't like Legos then so never read lego mania And all that stuff. Just to get things straight, you said the colonel was colt Carson, but on brickpedia colt Carson was the luitenant's name. Yet another question, I've never been to legoland Denmark but isn't there an Indian chief who plays with kids at the legoredo town part? If so, would his Indian name be the name of the lego Indian chief?
  12. Hi all, this is my first post in the historic themes section, but lets get to the point. I was looking around on Brickpedia ( Lego Wiki) and is noticed someone had given some of the Wild West minifigs names. For example, The Sherrifs name was: Wild Wyatt West, Cavalry lieutenant: Colt Carson, And the Red shirt cowboy: Zach. Do you old timers remember the WW characters having names? I also noticed that The wild west town's name is either gold city or legoredo. The main WW town set is Gold City Junction, But It included Two stickers that go on one of the building:"Legoredo newspaper (That way)" and "We Trade Gold at the Legoredo general store." One point for the name being legoredo, but then again the set is Called GOLD CITY Juntion. Anybody Have Word on this? Or am i just blind and the names are official and I didn't notice 'till now.

    looks almost like the hms surprise.
  16. I cant wait for the revolutionary soldier. I've been using joshamee gibbs hair for a colonial wig, but the wig on the soldier is perfect! Seems like he should come with a tricorn though ):
  17. My second favorite theme is western, the sets i have are: rapid river Village, Gold City Junction, weapons wagon, Bandits hide out, Fort Legoredo, sheriffs lock up, and some custom stuff. Took me so long to collect those sets! i bought them all off ebay.
  18. I use this as Theodore Groves or gillette, from potc. My favorite decal!
  19. I agree with Brickington! it is far better than i could do. (I mostly collect, im not a too impressive builder )
  20. The endeavor is a pretty awesome ship, but considering its magnificent size, lego would price it at at least $159.99. I would by buy it, if it was cheap enough.
  21. I had already found that topic, thanks anyway. The great pirate torso library is a very old topic. I am pretty sure nobody posts decals anymore. this topic is basically a second torso library. Try to post different decals than the ones posted there though.
  22. <p>Hello all, I've been really into royal navy decals lately. Post all of your Royal Navy Decals here!</p> <p> </p> Really sorry about the accidental double post! By the way that decal is my favorite potc character Lieutenant Theodore Groves.
  23. wait, what? there is a revolutionary war soldier coming in a book? what book? i want the wig! where can i get the book?
