Village Raid -Castle 07 MOC

[iamded]

I have to wait 2 whole months to get the castle and skeleton ship attack! >:-(

I will be worth it though, that castle is *wub* !

I have the opposite problem. The sets are in my local Toyworld, but I don't have any money! Luckily I have the Castle lay-byed, and will get it round New Years. And I might use my Christmas money on Skeleton Ship Attack. Unless I want the Indy sets more... 8-| But then I won't have the entire collection. I'll see what I can do. :-D

I didn't entirely like the design of the Skeleton Prison Wagon, I don't really see the point in a mobile prison. So I detached the prison and put it in the corner, and rebuilt the wagon into a troop transport. It can only carry 3 troops and a driver, but I like it.

I reckon that since Skeleton Ship Attack is an exclusive, then it is not a necessity to have the whole collection, a lame excuse I know :-D , but if I were you I would hold out a bit of money and make the decision once Indiana Jones sets come out.

Anyway, good luck with that old friend who I haven't known that long! :-D

Still stalking you, even as I "Batbrick Away!"

Batbrick Away! >:-)

But I think that no matter which way that line turns out, LEGO should be given praise for actually trying to expand a theme and taking a risk .

Because better try something new and fail than just make a line peter out like Vikings .........

Yeah I agree. We need a good castle theme to last as long as KK2 or longer. Unlike the poor Viking line...at least I got one of those sets before production on them ended. *y*

I LOVE IT!!!! 'cept for the wagon, that could use some work

The wagon is the most "official" part of the set -LEGO loves to throw cheap things into their sets to add to the playability -just like this wagon. ;-)

Get all the Castle sets, then focus on Indy -otherwise you'll kick yourself for not getting that castle set in the future. *y*

Very Nice!!! *y*

I like the inn and the breakaway wall ,very lego like to add action features

Nice Barrack section too!Hehe I see more real siege weapons like that crossbow

However the prison wagon is kinda boring becuase we have already see one

An undead dragon would have been sick!!

Oh well you can't have everything

I'd buy it 8-

Unless dragons haven't been around long enough so they haven't had a chance to die yet and become undead

I'm thinking of a large New mold like the skelli horse but dragon style

I agree! Seeing a new skeleton dragon official LEGO style would be sweet! *y*

[Batbrick]

A skeleton dragon would be too good to be true! *wub* (literally |-/ )

Imagine the MOCing potential!

Batbrick Away! >:-)
