hewkii9 Posted January 8, 2007 I'm supposing it's accurate, since we already saw it, it's in a catalog, and there seem to be captions on it. Could someone please translate them for me? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iamded Posted January 9, 2007 Im not digging the dragon. It's like a cross between Viking dragons (good) and Dino 2010 aka Dino Attack dinosaurs (bad). However, I love all the minifigs, and the Good castle is awesome. The evil castle is meh, but I'll still probably get it, providing I have enough money, and these sets get released in New Zealand. And is it just me, or does the skeleton's arms in this pic (http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=2236804) look like Starwars battle droid/Life on Mars alien arms?

SuvieD Posted January 10, 2007 These proto pic are lame. I want to see the final products before I start commenting. I am not a fan of the whole "undead" theme and I think it is entirely the wrong direction for castle LEGO. I still think a look-a-like Lord of the Rings type castle series would be better. I am glad I held onto my wolf/dog figures though. No skeleton army will ever get past a pack of staving dogs. Now if it were orges, trolls or goblins I might have to worry but a few thousand bones walking up is simply free delivery on take out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SWMAN Posted January 11, 2007 These proto pic are lame. I want to see the final products before I start commenting. I am not a fan of the whole "undead" theme and I think it is entirely the wrong direction for castle LEGO. I still think a look-a-like Lord of the Rings type castle series would be better. I could not disagree more. The past few years with KK has been the completely wrong direction. I got too much into storyline that was stupid. This is more like classic stuff, with the King and his army of knights against a simple and evil enemy that people are much more willing to play with. It also offers more opportunity for big battles, unlike KK where it was all little adventures and puzzles. I do think that LOTR would be great as well. But Lego either can't get the rights or has decided to stick with only Star Wars as their main Liscened theme. Don't Know. But, I know I am excited about the new sets and it is a great step in the right direction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BearHeart Posted January 11, 2007 here the 7009 This set, and the line in general, looks awesome. One thing I would like to see though is some kind of plumage for those visor helms. :-/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They're pretty much what I excpected in Euro. Except that the catapult set at 13 dollars (and probably at 15 Euro) is a good price (I actually excpected 15-20 Euro) , while I excpeted a bit less for the Skelton's Tower.

blueandwhite Posted January 11, 2007 Yeah baby! A cheap knight & barding means I won't have to fork over major cash either on bricklink or for one of the larger sets. Now the only fig I will need to grab off of bricklink is the princess/queen fig. Still, this means I will only be buying the smaller sets. Happy day. Later.

oo7 Posted January 11, 2007 Thank you for the nice picture, Legomilk! It makes no sence that two members of opposing armies at war would immerse themselves in a game of recreation together, but nice pieces. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jonwil Posted January 12, 2007 Just FYI, the new weapon is not a morningstar, it is correctly refered to as a Flail. Very cool sets in any case. If they add a "evil skeleton castle" with black walls and stuff, I am SO there :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
