So are you saying that Lego is using a lower quality figure in the battle packs or are you saying all of the Kingdoms figures are of a lower quality?

The "Broken Glass" came out well. Nice build.

And maybe a shot without the cloak to see how you did the arms? Please Please.....

This sounds great, where can I see pictures?

That is a great looking MOC. I love the domeed tower. Well done.

That helps narrow down the search. I will stick to the two local Lego stores and on-line then. Thanks

So you are saying Lego uses Chinese parts in the Kingdoms Battle Packs? I am unsure I understand.

Thanks guys, so to be clear it was not a "limited edition" kin dof thing, right? It makes me frustraited to see something as basic as that go unavailable and then to see ebay sellers with "more then 10" auctions selling a $15 item for $25-$30. At this point there are older knights for less on ebay.

Hello GrodonGordon, Glad to see you here. It is great that you have found something you can share with your wife. That is wonderful.

As my son and I continue to "grow" our collection, we have branched out to Kingdoms. I bought him a couple items and he wanted more men. I see they made a couple of "Battle Packs" with extra men. But I could not find them. The local Lego Store, KMart, Target, Lego-on-line etc did not have them. Where they a limited time/number kind of thing? Do they still make them? Did we just miss out? Any help/info would be wonderful. Thank You PS: Yes I know I could get them one figure at a time on ebay or as full packs for a 50% mark-up. I would just like to avoid it if possable.

I would bet all of these would be purchased in my house. Great ideas. I would love to see some with "civilians" as well. Sort of like the Jester set. 1. Black Smith 2. Pesent/farmer 3. Merchant Anyway, well done.

Well done, this is a great looking bike.

Hello and welcome. This is a great idea. It combines the Christmas spirit with the hobby. Nice. Thanks for the suggestion.

I happen to like this even more then The Arctana. Both are great looking mind you, but I like th efeel of this one better. I look forward to seeing more of your great work!

I like your version much better. It has a better feel to it. I have never liked the "out of the box" speeder much. Well done.

Nice visual. Would you be willing to share how you did it?

I agree, the stairs were great. I also liked the dogs in the part where they are clearly searching. Great set-up. Well done.

Well done Davey. I think you were successful in what you wanted to do. It has a 1940ish feel while alos keeping to the style of a VV. I also am impressed with the color use. it looks good with that checker board style look. Gives it particular style. Good Job

I love the way it looks. Only think now the head looks way small and out of plce in such a sweet mecha. But that is just me. Great job though.

I would have to say, for me, SPIII, Star Wars, and Power Miners all because they brought me back into logo-world as well as brought my son in for the first time. Sappy, I know, but that is how it is.

The thought just crossed my mind. If you could lock the axl so the ball did not roll and then filled the ball with an amount of led pellets/fishing weights then you might be able to make it stand on it's own. That would be a cool thing to have sitting on the desk. Anyway, just a thought.

Thank You for the kind welcome messages. @KielDaMan: My other child (Maddy) did not show an interest in playing with the bricks. She liked other things and so we did those together.

There is not a single line I hate nor love above all the others. The problem I have is that I have elements from each line I liked or disliked. I just finished reading this whole thread and find many folks raise particular issues regarding each line that are true. But to say what line is the worst? I just can't make up my mind. I think it would be more interesting to name the set you found the worst from the various space lines.

I like how you did the hands on this one. Well Done.
