I was actually expecting the mansion to be different like an actual building frame and not just a particular room. The helicopter looks like the wolverine showdown one and not that interesting. There are some good figures in them, but not that great to entice me to get this set which i assume will be a $50 set. I will rather get the two smaller sets since you can get the mandarin figure in there without getting the bigger mansion set and warmachine too. The boat does look closely similar to the robber`s one in the recent police set. And no iron patriot?

The death star will have to be my favorite. There is just so much detail and those iconic scenes. who would not want a large lego planet set anyway.

Although not castle related I see that in one of the new Friends small set that we get a deer. This would go well with this new castle theme.

The combat lair is very impressive and 6 minifigures included too. Since i haven`d gotten any chima sets as yet i`ll be getting this combat lair instead of the present wolf tribe vehicle.

I think the barge would be a $100 set or about $120 due to jabba, the new minifigures and it being the sail barge.

I noticed that on the air cargo helli-plane that the knob to pull and lower the hook sticks quite far out. I think it would look better if they left out that red technic piece and just used the black knob alone. Its just too distracting seeing it stick out that much.

Is that map a sticker? How did you make it?.....wonderful creation by the way the map really makes the entire moc stand out.

But the tail sticks out so you will have to have a very long/deep seat to accommodate them with the tail.

Wow im amazed at you building skill. Incredible!

How will the fox and skunk minifigures sit. Unless special seating is made you will have to remove the tails.

I notice that ropes are used to lower the drawbridge instead of chains. i would of rather the chains.

A black knight faction instead of going in this direction would of been a better option in this theme given the appearance of the black knight in the joust set. Integration of this line within kingdoms play sets would stick out like a sore thumb. The castle although not as spectacular is ok for what its wort. Maybe if some of the wall panels were replaced by some of the new brick elements mixed in with regular bricks, the castle may be more appealing. The front gate is nicely designed, but the front does look weird not having its two towers in the end corners. It gives it the appearance more of a fort than a castle. The dragons mountain is much better with all the foliage giving it that secluded look. This is something which the castle should incorporate, like a tree in the middle of one of the side walls. Speaking of which I noticed several brick built trees in that castle display. Does anyone know if those trees will be included with some of the sets? In the end though I think castle fans, although disappointed will still buy these sets because after all its castle! and Lego are made to be moced.

You have to really stare at the gorilla mech for quite a few minutes to discern that it looks like a gorilla. The body is too blocky. I do notice the brown gorilla minifigure has some interesting gloves or hands.

I love how you were able to pack so much detail into such a small area.

This would make a great escape pod for a bat boat or submarine.

I like your wall design, but I do think the walkway would of been better if you chose a different colour like a tan to differentiate it from the wall.

I hope the titan and the other large bug vehicle isn`t expensive, however I have the feeling that they will be close to the $100 mark.

I noticed that some of the knights have black hands. It just doesnt look a good colour combination with the blue torso.

I will be mocing this castle into a dragon knights castle since the lion knights already got one. I do wish however, that the design was different from the kingdoms one. Does this mean that we will get troll sets as well or could this be a one wave theme. Can you pm me the link.

Thats one awesome mech especially the colour scheme.

Can anyone tell if the sail barge comes with those round transclear bricks like the desert skiff to give the apearance of it floating? Given that we got the skiff which lead to the sail barge, it could be possible that we will get an ewok village this year. The recent ewok attack set and endor battle pack strengthens the claim for the rumor to be true. I think it could most likely be a winter wave set. After seeing the better pics of the barge it does look shorter lenght wise than the previous version.

The new family house is definitely a step up from the previous houses. I love the large windows in the front and the balcony. This set looks amazing and I glad they went with a large base plate.

These new galaxy squad sest looks far better than the current sets. The huge vehicle is awesome and it converts to a flying ship as well. That bug ship is huge and is the best out of all the sets so far. I am glad i havvent gotten any of the current sets as yest because I will be passing those for those two huge monsters.

I dont think the mech is that spectacular or even looks like a gorilla but I will get it just the same to get my hands on the minifigures.

The new city sets are simply amazing . The coast guard helicopter is a pass for me but the cargo sets are wonderful. I like the small biplane and its colour scheme. I like how they designed the log transported plane especially the nose part. I do wish the cargo truck was a little bigger though like the previous one.
