All of these were awesome. Congratulations!

I didn't have very many sets when I was a kid (just small ones), but it was still a lot of fun putting them back together. Good luck!

I like this a lot. The tower is very nice, and the fountain and bath both add to the detail and add some humor.

I agree, that would have been pretty unique, and it still would have looked like a stone castle.

Me too! I woke up and thought, "I hope that really happens!"

It's a fun thread. Thanks for letting me know about it! About Pirates: I like those ideas, though I usually do those things myself. If they made different pirate crews, it would be great if the minifigures were more distinct from one another, so each pirate crew could look more distinct. Ahh I can't wait to see that. I did put the Hawaiian girl with my Islanders, from the previous CMF series. They will resume Pirates! The question is when, and what will the next line look like?

This is cross-posted from the Pirates forum (I didn't realize there was a dream thread here till Zeya pointed it out), so I apologize if you're seeing it twice. I just had the awesomest dream about the Pirates line being resumed. There was a new big pirate ship, with a captain a lot like the one in the collectable minifig line. It was larger than Brickbeard's Bounty, but smaller than the Imperial Flagship. The pirates also had a small ship with a big cannon. The ship was brick-built, and it looked a little like one of the older sets I've seen. The imperials had some kind of roving fort that I don't remember well, and a shiny new redcoat leader minifig. There was also a middle eastern (or maybe Indian) style fort, super detailed, introducing a new faction...

Thanks! Though I feel a little embarrassed now, posting in the wrong place. However: I do hope that when they bring back Pirates, they add some interesting new factions. Something like an Indian faction would be great, and sort of like the Polynesian style "Islanders" from the 90s.

That was a great short video. I also liked the sound effects. For lighting... I've used desk laps with white handkerchiefs rubber banded onto them to act as diffusers. If you get the right color (daylight) bulb, it should look like sunshine. It will at least be bright in a way that doesn't glare. This is the guide I originally used when setting up my lights: http://gmtristan.com/toy-photography-setup/ It should be similar for stop-motion, as long as the lighting stays the same...

Alright, that's pretty funny

Both the castle and the whole layout are amazing!

There are so many great builds here, it's hard to choose. But: 6. sdrnet - 1 21. Krystel - 1 33. vecchiasignoraceppo - 2 39. Cara - 1

On the historical naked warriors: Interesting! On the minifigs: I think an MOC portraying a battle between freaked out armored minifigs and naked warrior minifigs could be pretty funny. :) And on the faces: if they are yellow, it still leaves the bad guys with freaky evil faces, which is at least different from last time.

Really? Interesting point... Do you happen to know which ones? Maybe we should be glad the new factions have clothes at all, even if the heraldry isn't appealing! Because all yellow would suck
