Asuka Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 Very nice, great find, Shakar. *y* It looks very good.... I like those curved corners on the upper wall. The only thing I dislike is that ugly big piece in picture seven.... Well.... the end of juniorization would become a celebration day for all AFOLs I guess.... Quote
Shakar Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 It wasn't very hard to find-I found the link over CC. ;-) Have you seen the extra pieces? Some that are worth of note: red Viking horns, one human shield, one skellie shield, one skellie arm....and a gold goblet! I love the new skellies. I consider them special ones, powered up by the Liches' magic, while the "old" regular skellies are just corpses. Oh, and have you seen the black skellie? *wub* The castle looks great. It just needs what the Viking Fortress did: a baseplate. But this can be easily resolved with, well a baseplate from your collection Shakar Quote
Shakar Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 Their face! Their face is simply great! With those diabolical red glowing eyes and that mouth that reminds me of the Lego mummies (both the Adventurers Pharaoh Hotep and the Studios one). My Liches will look awesome with them. Shakar Quote
alex54 Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 We've kinda known that for a few months :-P But I agree that it looks horrible :-X I know that I'm a bit late, but when I saw the SW pics, it was like a flash! It's this kind of situation where you feel proud of and exited by a discovery, but also stupid because you know that your "discovery", everybody already knows it. I've got so many exemple in memory... I will be regarded as a stupid guy :-$ ! The castle looks great. It just needs what the Viking Fortress did: a baseplate. Sorry, but the Viking Fortress hasn't any baseplates. It's the same base system as this lovely castle... Quote
SWMAN Posted April 17, 2007 Posted April 17, 2007 I know that I'm a bit late, but when I saw the SW pics, it was like a flash!

He is saying that the Viking Fortress needed a baseplate and didn't have one, and the castle needs one, but doesn't have one. Quote
Shakar Posted April 18, 2007 Posted April 18, 2007 Sorry, but the Viking Fortress hasn't any baseplates. It's the same base system as this lovely castle... Sorry, I wasn't very clear. I meant that both this and the Viking Fortress have a big hole in the middle and that I think they should both be built over a baseplate, maybe over a 48x48 one (that's what I'll do with my Kings's Castle-you can't do that with the Viking fortress due to its octagonal shape :-( ).Shakar EDIT: didn't see your post SWMAN. Thank you. :-) Quote
alex54 Posted April 18, 2007 Posted April 18, 2007 @Shakar: Sorry, I didn't understand correctly 8-| But I agree with you, a baseplate would have been better, especially ifyou want to arrange the interior court... Quote
pietje Posted April 19, 2007 Posted April 19, 2007 new photos from the castle *y* http://www.flickr.com/photos/sklar/sets/72157600080540410/ Quote
Peoples_General Posted April 21, 2007 Posted April 21, 2007 I can't wait to get these new knights. I need a faction to represent my Russians (Kievan Rus)! :D Quote
Shakar Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 Lego Castle Skeleton Ship Attack I think that the price is a bit too high... Shakar Quote
Sir Dillon Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 Lego Castle Skeleton Ship AttackI think that the price is a bit too high... It does seem a bit high, but I'm not surprised... I was guessing it'd be around that price. :-/ Quote
Shakar Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 I was thinking something like 60$..ah well. Shakar Quote
BearHeart Posted April 27, 2007 Author Posted April 27, 2007 WOW, that is high... I was expecting $69 Canadian not American. Quote
Starwars4J Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 Shipping August 1? :-/ I hope the other castle sets are out sooner than that... Quote
Sir Dillon Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 Shipping August 1? :-/ I hope the other castle sets are out sooner than that... It seems that in the past, the special 'Toys R Us only items' come out later in the year than the first wave of sets. I'm hoping it'll be the same case here. Quote
Shakar Posted April 28, 2007 Posted April 28, 2007 Hey, the pics of the ship over the TRU site are up! Doesn't show much of the set, but it's looking good! Shakar Quote
BearHeart Posted April 28, 2007 Author Posted April 28, 2007 Hey, the pics of the ship over the TRU site are up! Doesn't show much of the set, but it's looking good!Shakar Thats probably the best-looking box from the whole castle line *y* *y* *y* Quote
Shakar Posted May 11, 2007 Posted May 11, 2007 I'll double post because something like this deserves to be on top page. Scroll down....Castle pics are on Lego.com! Thanks to CC! Shakar Quote
