Matn Posted October 21, 2007 Well, here is my first topic on this forum. "Hooray" X-D Here you can ask which set you should buy if you don't know which to chose. Then other members can give you advice and commentary. I will start with my difficult choises. For Christmas and NewYear (yes, it's early) should I ask money? Or: - Marked Street or - Spongebob sets or - Some Castle sets I just can't choose... You can't choose between some sets? Post it here! Edit Bonaparte: Merged the threads of Matn and MasterKenobi. Edit by Hinckley: and I merged those with Trudop561's thread... Edit by Hinckley: and again with axle's thread... Edit by Hinckley: " Calvin's thread...

Joey Lock Posted October 21, 2007 Well you dont give us much information on what sort of person you are? Well we can get around that, are you more of a adventurer and child like person or a Battle Raged King? You decide! *sweet* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Matn Posted October 21, 2007 8-| I'm a bit of everything? From the Castle sets I would buy that set with the princess and evil lord. From the Spongebob sets I would buy Krusty Crab. Oh, my parents just sayed that I will get money (so I can buy what I want) or perhaps the Marked Street. And now: others who can't choose? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Derek Posted October 21, 2007 (edited) The Krusty Krab is great,with LOTS of cool little details and accesories, as well as the castle sets. I dont know about market street though. So i guess its up to you! DP8 (75th Post!) Edited October 21, 2007 by darthperson8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UniqueBuilder Posted October 21, 2007 Market street is GREAT, but if you really want the Princess ( *wub* ) and the evil Wizard, you should get the skellie tower before it's discontinued! ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iamded Posted October 21, 2007 (edited) I got the skellie tower, it's great, although the drawbridge didn't work as well as I'd hoped. It all depends on what you do with the set. Assuming you want to display it, you just need to decide whether you want a Spongebob scene, or a Knight-rescuing-damsel-in-distress thing. I'd only buy Market Street to add to my Lego town, but since I don't have a Lego town, I personally would go for Castle sets. Also, I have a dilemma myself. For Christmas, my Dad's gonna give me some money. Now, I can either get Dwarfs Mining, and have some money left over, to save for '08 or get some Crossbow Attacks before they run out. Or I can spend it all multiples of '07 Castle sets, for army building. Or I can save it for '08. What do you guys reckon? ~Peace EDIT: Or I could save up some more and get the Castle Chess set...

iamded Posted October 21, 2007 I'd say finish off you Vikings collection. Otherwise you'll be kicking yourself for having an incomplete collection, and no way to complete unless you buy it overpriced on eBay or something. I think I'll stock up on sets, I don't really need some bishops and reapers, or a shipping fee half the price of the set itself, so I'll pass on the Chess set.

Derek Posted October 21, 2007 I dont think you will have to worry about the first wave disappearing until the second one comes around. Even then they will be on S@H for a while. Hope this helps. DP8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If i was you id buy the dwarfs mine. Because one: its really cool. two: that means you will have money for 2008 and beleive me, having no money when new sets come out is mentaly and physically horrible. :'-( (it happened to me at the start of this year) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What do you guys reckon? ~Peace EDIT: Or I could save up some more and get the Castle Chess set... ____________ If i was you I would get the Dwarf's Mining. I think it is better to get only 1 of each set in a theme than have multiples of some but miss out on a great set. Hope this helps! :-) I'd say finish off you Vikings collection. Otherwise you'll be kicking yourself for having an incomplete collection, and no way to complete unless you buy it overpriced on eBay or something.I think I'll stock up on sets, I don't really need some bishops and reapers, or a shipping fee half the price of the set itself, so I'll pass on the Chess set. __________ Thanks, I'll do that then *sweet* . Batman can wait, I already have three good sets and it would be better to have one complete collection than have a heap of themes that I can't finish. Good choice on the Castle Chess set, coming from a Tasmanian (which is near you), the shipping costs suck |-/ . I might get it eventually, but ultimately the sets are more worth it. When you say stock up on sets do you mean multiples? Or the Dwarf's Mining? Or have you yet to decide? I Am FEAR Incarnate! *skull* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you should definitely get the Dwarf Mine Set, as it has those cool new Dwarfs, with their helmets and beards, and because I said so, so there! :-P Honestly though, that Dwarf set is cool, just look at Hinkley's review and you will be convinced. But if you don't like it, then wait for the other sets next year! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iamded Posted October 22, 2007 Thanks guys. I did love Hinckley's review. So I'll get Dwarfs Mine. hollisbreick, I know what you mean. The new Castle sets came out, and I had no money. I returned a game I recently bought just to get them. X-D Dwarfs Mine ON! ~Peace Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RupeeClock Posted November 10, 2007 (edited) Okay guys, it's almost "Sinterklaas" in our country, a cousy and more relegious version of christmas. Every 5 December it will be that day, and every year i can debate with my parents about what i will get on that day.

Lord Of Pies Posted November 10, 2007 Err, so what is the question? If you are asking which set is best, than I would say 7991 Rubbish Lorry. It is a very good set, one fo the best small town sets for many a year, and a very neat colour scheme too!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
