Classic Castle Alive and Well in the EB History Forum!

Many LEGO Castle fans might say that Forestmen, Dark Castle, and other castles released during the mid 90s were some of the best and most exciting sets in the LEGO Castle timeline. If you are a fan of Forestmen or Dark Forest, you might enjoy Metalandi's flashback of 6079 Dark Forest Fortress. This is a must see review for those of you who appreciate the color and design of LEGO Classic Castle.

EB Fellow Superkalle presents a new software for those who feel the urge to manage and analyze their LDD files

According to Superkalle, mapping the 1700 official Lego ID’s to the BrickLink counterparts was mildly put “a lot of work”. As a result, over 400 bricks that on BrickLink has x or b IDs have been mapped to their official Lego IDs.

Included in LDD Manager is also a unique feature – find bricks by connectivity type. You can for example find all bricks that have a least 1 stud, a Technic pin and a Technic hole. Perfect when you know what the brick looks like, but can’t remember its number or name.

A second unique feature is the commonality analyzer, which allows you to find common bricks over multiple LDD MOCs. This feature can for example help you reduce the number of part types needed to build several MOCs.

There is also a color warning feature that will tell you if a color you’ve used in LDD has been produced or not.
