Some of the British troops are very nice. I like the blue coats as well.

I always liked the blue coats better...

God Bless,

you know, i've always felt the admiral was over pirced... some sellers have him listed a 20 USD... and a while ago the lowest priced one was 13 USD. during that time, i sold a prefect one for 8 bucks !!!

however, since then i've seen many listed around the 8 dollar mark... maybe some other sellers to a cue from my sale :-D

i mean, he is a fig you really only need one of, right ??? seems there would be plenty to go around...

I can understand the blue admiral's price (not that I would pay it). As he only came in two very expensive (especially now) sets. But the red admiral was available in three sets, which are still expensive but not as highly sought after.... Maybe it's just that distinguished head ;-)

God Bless,

I love the Indian figures and the two chinese soldiers that come with the Adventure boat.

I always wonder why people who like the middle ages make uniform armies like on the pictures in this thread. Its not like soldiers had uniforms in those days.

I like the ghost first

the skeleton takes a close second, though I don't recal it but from some pirate sets. I know they are both in a the latest "KK classic castle set."

I don't choose these just because of the holiday season,.. I promise!

Once again, I had dug out of the past threads that are buried for almost 2 years. It's time for me to revive it. :tongue:

Was actually finding a similar topic like this, thought of creating something like that earlier. :classic:

I am glad Brickster had done it 2 years ago.

My most desired mini-fig will be the lost forgotten White Ninja Princess. Well, not really forgotten. But, it was a figure that I wanted the most. Well, I know there are Bricklink and eBay around. I am still having preceptions to do online transactions. Till then, this figure will have to wait. :cry_sad:

My top 3 favourite figure will be as followed

image2.jpgimage3.jpgimage4.jpg

The White Knight from the Black Knights Castle. A Forestmen and A Black Falcon soldier! These are my favourite figures from my Classic era, and no new castle themes can easily replaced them from my heart. :blush:

This predates my joining the site, and it looks like it was a good conversation that I'm sure could use revisiting.

I own all of your examples except that Ninja Princess, and she is on my "actively seeking" list, much as this lovely was until recently.

So, in terms of favourites, I tend to think of what I don't have, as opposed to what I do, which is probably the wrong way to look at it, but that's how it goes.

Basically, I'm buying all the female castle/ninja figures I can find. I think I own every adventurers figure made, or close to it (they aren't hard to get), which leaves Wild West, and I'm close to having all of those as well.

It's technically Pirates, but I really need one of these (and he works well in historical non-Pirate settings as well).

So, in a way, that does fit the subject, since those are my most desired minifigs.

In terms of things that don't exist:

1. Any military of any country, ever.

2. Generic Castle folk.

3. Female figures in any historical line (or current line for that matter).

Haha, I see how you got your title, "Dead Thread Reviver". Thanks for reviving it! :tongue:

Those are all very cool, some of my favourites from the castle theme (I don't own them either), but my favourite historical/adventure figures would be...

I own all of these, but I wouldn't want to part with them. :blush:

Achu, because he just has so much design and coolness on him!

Pharaoh Hotep's mummy, since I got him I have loved that fig, I was/am very much in to Ancient Egypt.

King Kahuka, he is just sooo cool looking, like the other Islanders, and I love his mask!

Maybe I would add Basil the Batlord too, he is just cool.

It seems I like leaders with big headresses and fancy clothes! :laugh:

:skull:

My dark ages were quite a long time (bout 15 yrs) so i missed pretty much everything!

I remember wanting lots more of these original knights and wishing for the rare ones too

army102.jpg

All of these have caught my eye, thanks to you guys!

- The Mummy from Desert Adventurers

- Green Forestman (black feather) (i have some with red,blue and yellow from BL already!)

- And maybe the Emperor's Guard from Orient Expedition

This ghost is very cool too (and perhaps some wolfpack)

I have to agree with that one, also because it's one of my first castle figs :cry_happy: ...

I think The Admiral and the soldiers from the Imperial guard theme are also pretty cool, and the forestmen and black falcons are also lovely, a pity that i don't own any of them :cry_sad: .

There's lots of minifigs I desire, but mostly I would want the forestwoman, the princess from 6081 - King's mountain fortress, female islander (even thought I probably won't get all of them because of the very high price on some of them, especially for the forestwoman).

And allthought I have these: I wouldn't mind a couple of extra blue or red admirals, "anchor chest tattoo" pirate, the "merchant" from 6277 or 6286 and classic castle minifigs (and minifigs from the black falcon/lion knights era).

Hmmmm..... Johnny Thunder is one that i like. Ninja's are cool too. But that ghost...it kind of grosses me out, reminds me of rotteen cheese or something... :sick:

Posted (edited)

well this might be a crazy suggestion but cant i desire to have all the sets plus the minifigs

but if i had to pick one i would pick hhhmmmmthe green ninja

http://www.1000steine.com/brickset/images/3346-1.jpg

and maybe the black forestmen

awww i coudlnt find a good pic ohhh well

and that pretty much it for now but i still lots of other figs to see :yoda:

Hmm. Good topic, The Brickster.

My most desired minifigs from the H&A theme would have to be...

The Dragon Knight captain from this set (part of a value pack, it came with a small pirate set as well).

I definately want want of those Forestmen (or was that Dark Forestmen?) guys with the black feather.

And lastly, well, who doesn't want a ninja? Ninjas were definately up there on my favourite themes list. Right up there with Rock Raiders and Castle '07. So add a black ninja to my most desired figs list. :sweet:

A figure I still purchase when I see it cheap somewhere is this one, Baron Von Baron:

adv039.jpg

1) pit helmet for zulu wars etc.

2) white epaulettes for armies (pirates etc.)

3) great torso for armies (WWII etc. )

4) hook hand (I must have 5 of them or so, but can never seem to find 2 in good condition :sceptic: )

same applies for this one:

adv006.jpg

1) pith helmet

2) great torso for maffia mocs etc

Great question. And a great way for me to waste my time.

I looked through all of the mini-figs in all of those lines in the bricklink catalog

With bricklink, it's hard to "miss out on a mini-fig". I loved the detail of the Wild West and the Vikings are great! But, I based my answer on availability and post-market price.

During my dark ages I missed these two female characters:

Oh, I am totally with you here.
