Smidy101 Posted January 18, 2010 Yeah the new castle looks like its going in the right direction. Lets hope they keep this theme going for the next couple of years. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Millacol88 Posted January 18, 2010 Yeah the new castle looks like its going in the right direction. Lets hope they keep this theme going for the next couple of years. I like the look of this line, so I hope it will run a bit longer than the Fantasy one did. I think that sub-theme could have done with another wave, or at least a larger wave for 2009. They left a lot of things undone (I was hoping for a Crownie/Dwarf ship). But, no use complaining about that. I'll definitely be getting all the smaller sets from this wave, maybe the prison and the castle if I can afford them. Although I think a lot of my money will be going towards the second wave of SW and Harry Potter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

UsernameMDM Posted January 22, 2010 The only chance for a new female seems to be the prison tower (if that is a female locked up), so my hopes for the advent calendar would be a new female and perhaps a new peasant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Broken Bricks Posted February 1, 2010 Here you go: working link Thanks! These do look good indeed, and it's clearly a return to human factions, which is nice. I also like that we'll be getting a new version of the jester! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SWMAN Posted February 1, 2010 I am really surprised we haven't seen any new pictures yet. When are these sets going to come out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
metalandi Posted February 1, 2010 I think i remember reading somewhere they are all fall issues (september or october), but i'm not sure. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheMaster Posted February 2, 2010 Yeah i am pretty sure i have read that it will be September Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaleDVM Posted February 3, 2010 This is a little speculation. A little birdie told me that in a strange release schedule the battle packs for the new kingdoms guys are going to be released months before the castle sets come out. Like this spring in fact. I found this to be rather remarkable. TLG hasn't released a line in this fashion before in my recollection. However, I could see it working well to wet appetities for the new line over the subsequent months. Also note: with the Prince of Persia sets coming out in April I could see some castle battle packs being purchased to go with the middle eastern sets. Imagine if you will, some friendly European medieval tourists dressed in their finest military garb heading to the middle east for some fun and sun... I cannot confirm this in any way but... This little birdie has industrial strength sources and has always been very accurate in the past. If true I would find this very interesting indeed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This little birdie has industrial strength sources and has always been very accurate in the past. If true I would find this very interesting indeed. That would be great and also, in my opinion, also a very clever marketing move. I don't usually buy battle packs BUT if they will be the only available sets before the theme sets, I'd probably buy them. But I haven't heard anything about these battlepacks: would they be as the 2009 ones (so only minifigs and accessories) or like star wars ones (with some pieces too). I'd prefer much more if LEGO would shift from the first kind to the second. In any case I find it kind of strange to have pictures of kingdoms sets in December and not having sets till September of the following year...it's really too long and it can kill hype.

The Eye Posted February 3, 2010 Gonna have to snatch up those sets then, along with the MMV and some HP sets. The friendlies are red and white, and the enemies are black, by the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Etzel Posted February 3, 2010 Nice, nice, nice! That brown tower is my favourite, but many of the small sets are very good too with lots of nice minifigs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
