LIES! HOW COULD THAT BE?! PLEASE SOMEONE BLOCK THEIR IPs! THIS IS CLEARLY NEKCHIR BACK USING MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS TO SPREAD MORE LIES! :laugh:

I hope Nexo Knights is a huge success, but I'm also in the hopes we get a more traditional Castle theme in the next few years. Chima and Ninjago look really cool, and lots of fun, but I'm more of a traditional European medieval/fantasy kind of AFOL.

I'll laugh out loud if Nekchir (or whatever his name is) ends up being right about all his bull. Oh, the irony. lol

Now that's a great MOC! Please TLG, turn this into an official set!

I'm happy I can now dream for a re-issue of Café Corner and Green Grocer!

Why, oh, why, did you have to write that? I can UNread it! Or forget it! And now I need it! Silverhawks FTW!

"Moltor" sounds like a name. You seem to have a point there.

*crosses fingers* and hopes for a great Castle theme whatever "Nexo Knights" means.

As long as the quality of the new Castle theme is up to or above Kingdoms, I'm in. And I hope it's minifigs, not minidolls.

I'm... Sorry. :blush: *VERY ashamed*

Any Castle news from SDCC?

Oh-em-gee! WHAT A GREAT SET! I'm not into Chima, but oh, wow!

Am I the only one surprised that there hasn't been a modular police station yet? There's a fire brigade, after all...

Agreed! It would be awesome if Lego released more civilian sets for City! Town Square 2015 FTW! What a great set!

Unfortunately, I have to agree with this. Pirates experienced a come back due to Pirates of the Caribbean. But that's pretty much it. When was the last time that happened to cowboys, knights or Robin Hood? And even i it did, scripts are all about grim and gritty these days. Even the last Robin Hood film was anything but merry. I can't remember a Western/Cowboy movie like Young Guns in the past -- what?! -- 20 years? Knights? Pfff... Sorry to come out like this, but I can't stand the grim and gritty times anymore. The Avengers franchise may be the only light in movies these days. Even Superman has an attitude. This is just so NOT kid-friendly. I don't want to sound nostalgic, but I miss the old Errol Flynn/Guy Williams movies and series. Characters were adventurers and they had some joy in what they did, even if they went trough the worse life could throw at them.

Elves are on the shelves. I don't think Lego will release a second Elf-line (even if it's in a different theme) while the previous one is still on (and is a theme on itself).

Hell

I think he means posting pics and breaking the internet! :laugh:

Wow! What a great MOC! And a really nice homage! This is an insta-fave!

The Lego store at Westfield White City in London still has some. Spotted it on Monday.

I think there's been some good experiences in the last few years: Kingdoms, LotR, Castle... I'd say TLG has enough info on what works and what doesn't Castle-wise. LotR was a licensed theme, and that sells itself, but what worked --or didn't-- in Kingdoms, LotR and Castle will play a part in the next iteration.

This thread should have a poll. ;)

If the next Castle is anything like Pirates, I'd rather Lego didn't release any Castle at all. I don't think we need ONE wave of old sets with new color schemes, or a few very-tiny-little-small MEGO/Kre-o-like playsets.
