Castle sets 2008/2009

[Reiniger]

I hope those descriptions are right - put me down for a Drawbridge Defense...

[metalandi]

Wow, i hope these descriptions are true. For the moment i trust them, cause i wouldn't see the point for anybody to lie. But i wish we all had a proff by seeing these pictures, though

Some people just get kicks from fooling other people over the internet whenever they're expecting something new. It's very easy to spread false rumors in message boards, because there are always people who believe whatever you say (if it's what they want to hear) and spread it forward.

As a Final Fantasy fan, I run into this phenomenon every time there are news about a new game.

[KimT]

Could you tell us were you saw them then I'd beleive you.

Didn't he say "Preliminary pictures" in a "Retailer Catalog"

The decription sounds fair to me and I'm sure they're liable to change when the non-preliminary/finished sets are released.

Thanks for the elaborate walkthrough and I for one am looking forward to the return of skeletons and the white skeleton horse.

okie guys..

i took some pics off the retailer's catalog..

trust me... it looks better in the catalog cos it was almost impossible to take these pics quickly with a phone cam.

edit: picture marked with confidential and preliminary.

apologise once again for the shoddy pictures.

i apologise if its not in the right sizing, any smaller and i doubt the folks here can make out what the pictures are

[hollisbrick]

Thanks for the pics, even if they are blurry they still look great!

[STK]

i hope the yellow coloured bricks will be gold in the end.... of course they will, or? - thanks for the pics

Wow! Thanks! Those look great! I'll probably get the chariot and drawbridge, but I dont see the queen...

thanks to all for the nice comments dispite the crappy quality.

Going to visit the retailer again..

a bit of topic... but in the retailer's catalog, they are a few new interesting lines .. i hope to be able to take more "crappy pics" and post them online.

and in the TLG's catalog, these new sets are stated for release in July 09.. sighs....

[Pencoin]

Huh? Did EB actually take them off? Thats odd.

[KimT]

Nothing odd about that.

Preliminary and confidential pictures are protected by law.

If a retailer allows the reproduction of pictures in a catalog that he isn't allowed to le anyone see, then he/she violates some laws.

We have no lust to engage in a lawsuit discussion with TLG and thus such pictures are removed.

When pictures are deeplinked on Eurobricks, then our cache hosts them and that's the violation.

Let me say this as clear as possible:

No deeplinked images of illegal pictures.

[notch notch, know what I mean?!, eh?!]

I have to go now.

But I'll be back in a few hours to check on you

[Pencoin]

Oh, I see now. <Goes to Brickshelf>

[15Boost]

oops..

my humble apologies

i shall be more careful when i post pictures next time

[Pencoin]

[Pencoin]

Hehehe!

Drawbridge Denfese is my favorite, I expect £30.

[hewkii9]

Thats knights kingdom 2006.

Not castle 2009.

Obviously, but I Lego should have learned their lesson with the no-pants knight that had already come out.

I like the look of Drawbridge Defense, but I don't see the Queen in it. I'll be getting it nonetheless.

[cagri]

I think I'm converting to Pirates this year. I don't like the look of the new sets, not much. They remind me of KK2. And I thought we were done with skellies, they are weak enemies :(

[Pencoin]

What!? The skeletons aren't weak at all. Well, I suppose they are like Battle Droids, weak but theres scores of them.

[Scop]

Looks like KK 2 with Orcs and Skellies, not impressive at all.

I hope for better pictures and some improvements to change my opinion, but thank you for the first pictures!

[Teddy]

was I waiting for this?....

Horrible.... How could they design such ugly sets after the medieval village.

This is ugly, ugly horribly ugly. KK all over again.

I hated KK so much I even exchanged a set that was given to me as a present by my girlfriend...

I really hope they will re-design these ugly sets, what were the designers thinking?

An utterly disapointed and gutted,

Teddy

<edit: sorry admins if this post is not productive for discussion. I was a bit in shock >

[Erdbeereis]

Can we really start saying how terrible they look after extremely blurry preliminary pictures?

I think they don't look bad at all and we can barely even see much. I'm definitely holding off further judgement until better pictures arrive.

Dear Erdbeereis1,

You are right. I should have waited for better photos before judging.

Kind regards,

Teddy
