MagPiesRUs Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 Maybe I'm colour-blind, but it appears to be blue... ~Peace *wacko* I don't know what you guys are talking about, look: :-P Quote
Mr Spielbrick Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 What bums me out is that TLC put the exact same dwarf in the Troll Ship and Dwarf Defender sets. This mean we have to buy the Mine to get different dwarves! :'-( I'm not that rich... Quote

Sorry Vader, back on topic: What bums me out is that TLC put the exact same dwarf in the Troll Ship and Dwarf Defender sets. This mean we have to buy the Mine to get different dwarves! :'-( I'm not that rich... I agree there, which is why I hope for a brown bearded dwarf impulse. That way I can get different coloured dwarves, rather than an army of red-bearded ones with a couple of different dwarvesmine ones |-/ Batbrick Away! >:-) Quote

This mean we have to buy the Mine to get different dwarves! :'-( I'm not that rich... It looks like the dwarf in the Attackship has a wingless silver helmet. But I agree, the Dwarf Defender should have a different coloured or molded beard. It also would've been great to get a bornze axe or hammer, as the only way to get them are in the Dwarf Mining set. Looking at the siege tower again, I'm a little dissapointed that there doesn't seem to be something to hold the bridge of it up, unlike in Vladek's Siege Engine. Beside that and the flick fire missiles, I can't find any fault about the Tower set, it's great *wub* I may be a little late for the discussion of the new knight torso, but it makes a great squire.

Hey that makes a great squire *y* Good job. I love the siege tower set as well, something to hold the bridge up like you said would have been good, but overall this siege tower is a better design, and I love the rickety look of it.

iamded Posted February 2, 2008 Posted February 2, 2008 I could swear that all this spam colour posts, will end up getting some into a nice dark chamber...... Sorry Vader, won't happen again. :-$ What bums me out is that TLC put the exact same dwarf in the Troll Ship and Dwarf Defender sets. This mean we have to buy the Mine to get different dwarves! :'-( I'm not that rich... I wouldn't say exact same. I know the helmet's the different mold, you can see in the picture of the minifigs at the top of the box that there are no wings on the helmet. And, not that it matters much, but it does make a slight difference, the head and torso could be different too. As for the beard, as much as it looks like the Dwarvf Mine Defender beard, the pics are still too small to properly make it out, and I'm desperately hoping for this beard in that orangey red colour. (Credit to Hinckley for the pics.) ~Peace Quote

Its a shame the only cheap set with a dwarf is the catapult one, I was hoping a better rasnge would be available. Oh well, atleast we have dwarves. Batbrick Away! >:-) Quote

Brainbox Posted February 2, 2008 Posted February 2, 2008 I love the siege tower set as well, something to hold the bridge up like you said would have been good, but overall this siege tower is a better design, and I love the rickety look of it. I quite like it as well. I wasn't sure when I fist saw it, thinking it to be more of the same reall, but actually it's quite nice. I mean three trolls/orcs, two knights, a nice enough tower, and a nice siege tower, fully in-character with the occupants. And then there's that quiver. Its a shame the only cheap set with a dwarf is the catapult one, I was hoping a better rasnge would be available. And at least there is a cheap set with dwarves Quote
Mr Spielbrick Posted February 2, 2008 Posted February 2, 2008 (edited) Ah yeah, true, the helmet is different. But it's still in the same colour. As is the beard. -mutters grumpy incantations aimed at TLC- Here's hopin' for a darkbearded bronzehelmeted impulsedwarf (aren't those three pretty words? :-D). If the Castle Advent Calendar will be widely available, we will actually get a darkbearded goldhelmeted sortofimpulsishdwarf. That'd be a step in the right direction. :-) Edited February 2, 2008 by Mr Spielbrick Quote

This mean we have to buy the Mine to get different dwarves! :'-( I'm not that rich... I couldn't agree more! I haven't got much money to spend either, but I'd love to get a varied selection of Dwarves. By the way, I really like the looks of the gold & green dragon! I'd love to get me one of these as well! *wub* Quote

Yes, and its very well priced, well, from what we know so far anyway. Plus, one of the three orcs has that new armour and gold helmet, which is great. And as you say, the quiver, I was hoping for another one. And at least there is a cheap set with dwarves Always the positive thinker, but you're right. We should be happy that we have dwarves at all, let alone a cheap set with one. Batbrick Away! >:-) Quote
whung Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Some new findings on Castle accessories 2008 But I wonder is the battle pack is magnet? Quote
xwingyoda Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Cool, tks for the info ;-) Gyl will be happy with this dwarf keychain ;-) Those BPs are interesting !! They do have a wider magnet packaging but if they were magnets it would say so on the box |-/ Maybe finally real BPs X-D Interesting to follow that !! Maybe real exciting news hehe *yoda* Quote
trooperdavinfelth Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Woah, those battle packs are amazing! Now I can only wait for a goblin battle pack and a dwarf battle pack... *wub* I'll probably get one or the other... *y* Quote
dwarf-brik Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 'Drooling happily' WOOOT!!! I LOVE YOU TLC!!! WOOOOT!! I love the way tlc is making it easier to make huge armies! Now let hope for a orc battle pack and a dwarf battle plck! that would be sweet!! *wub* dwarfy *wub* Quote
Mr Spielbrick Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 (edited) Wow, I really hope those battlepacks aren't magnets. Looks like they're not, cause I can't find a magnet on that skeleton. Where would they put it anyway, in his head? Not much room there, I think. Plus, TLC usually doesn't include weaponry for magnet figs... Non-magnet Castle battlepacks on on on! *wub* Excellent way of collecting the different minifigs and most of the weapons. Edited February 4, 2008 by Mr Spielbrick Quote
xwingyoda Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Upon closer inspection of those BPs I'm quite happy but not that thrilled by the choice of MFs. Why include 2 horsmen in the knights: sure they look cool but I would have prefered 1 sentriy or guard and a bishop. Why include those regular Mfs with a skellie head ? I hate those figs but they do have cool accessories !! I love that "death" white skellie with his cape and hood ;-) !! Don't get me wrong, I love those and will buy at least 2 of each hehe !! Now whats the price of these babies ?? *yoda* Quote
Pate-keetongu Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 i saw dwarves keychain about week ago in ebay but I thought it was fake... but it's real! yeah!!! dwarves axe is lego's best life size accessory, very detailed. NO! no dwarves battleback.... but if this year come skellie battleback, maybe in 2009 come dwarves and troll battleback. dwarves keychain on! Quote
blueandwhite Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Battle packs? I could definitely get into these for a good price. I just hope they aren't unreasonable like our impulse knight. Quote
Lord Of Pies Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 New pic of the troll ship from the back: Quote
Mr Spielbrick Posted February 4, 2008 Posted February 4, 2008 Argh! I love those new dragons! So why 'argh', you wonder? Cause they always come in expensive sets. I ordered (all seperate parts of) the black dragon from King's Castle Siege on BrickLink yesterday, and I still wanna buy that Skull Tower set with the red dragon. And now more pics surface of dragon no. 3!!! Argh, coming out of my Dark Ages is sooo bad for my wallet! *skull* Quote
