Darkdragon

Cinna slips out from a shadow, not having intended on hiding but having been a bit dazzled by dagger with the lion carving. She looks at the crates and barrels of weapons, quickly scanning past the many blades and bows. Finally her eyes fall upon a beautiful ebony staff with a silver tip to hold her elemental gem securely. She pulls the staff out of the barrel carefully, it feels lighter than the one her father made for her, yet somehow stronger. She nods her thanks to Isaac and takes a spot with her team to await further orders.

"Well, Haldor, it is rare in most areas but where I come from there are actually a few mage families. The gift runs in the blood, you see and ..." As she's speaking, a cloaked figure slides up beside her and whispers into her ear. As she tries to hide the big grin spreading across her face, she hurriedly gets up and follows him out of the hall. "We'll talk again later Haldor! I have to attend to a quest!" she calls to Haldor as she leaves.

Cinna smiles at the man who greeted her. "Hello Haldor Skovgaard, I am Cinna the Dark. Most people call me Cinna for short though, which is fine with me. Would you care to join me for some fried clams? I just harvested these from the beach myself this morning. I fear I may have harvested a few too many though."

Cinna strolls into the Hall once again. It's been a while since she was in last and she is surprised to see one quest has already begun a few days ago. She looks through the new quests on the board but decides not to try for them at this time. She does make sure her name is still listed under Quest 4 after noticing today is the final day for signups on that one. She heads over to the bar and asks the cook to fry up a bag of clams she just finished digging for out at the beach, then sits down to drink a beer and wait for her meal.

A pigment printer (such as inkjet) can't print white. Before using the water-slide decals you should definitely make a test print because you might be disappointed with how they turn out once you put it on a torso. They will look great on a white torso but any other color not so much. To print white you need a thermal printer, expensive and very prone to breaking down.

I have this product. Your review has covered a lot of info about it, and I think it's great because so many people I come across online have never heard of this or don't know what it is when they saw it. One thing I noticed with the one I have is that the clips on the sides come off. They don't break, but the little hinge that holds them onto the top portion of the head sometimes will pop off when I go to lock it. It really makes me worry about having this loaded up with parts and carrying it around. Can you imagine the horror for a child who put his whole collection in this to go to grandma's house and as he was walking up the driveway the top came off and everything flew all over the ground? It does work as a quick sorter, somewhat, as you said. I mostly use it to toss parts in that I'm currently working with for a project to keep them together and yet semi-sorted. It is very impressive sitting on to top of a shelf because it's a giant minifig head.

If Kingdoms is replaced by a licensed theme, I hope PotC ends. It will be a travesty, in my eyes, if all the basic LEGO themes are replaced by licensed themes. I'm not a license hater by any means, but I don't want everything (or nearly everything) to be licensed. That would really suck. I think that like others are saying here, I agree, the castle theme isn't in the catalog (leaks) because it won't come out first half of the year. I hope there is more than just the one big set we are expecting since not everyone can afford a big set. Don't we still need a castle for the Dragon knights?

I really like this creation. The overall style looks great. The color choices are wonderful. The scale seems perfect with the figure - a problem I constantly have building larger pieces. I also like that you didn't go overboard on the landscaping, which might have meant we'd still be waiting for photos because landscaping sometimes never ends. If I have to pick one thing I like best about this project, I think it's the colors. They are just perfect and really give me the feeling that Waldemar Walrus is happy in his windmill. Stability doesn't matter in photos

if you are in the USA, go down to your local drugstore and buy a refillable visa card. It costs 4.95 but then you will have a card to use online. Also, I recommend asking your parents to buy the parts because Bricklink is for 18+ only.

Sorry about being slow to post in this thread(to everyone on the following list), these people are all great! +1 Kenny +1 Pandora +1 ACWWgal2011 +1 GhostFan +1 WhiteFang +1 Stacy_ToT-LUG +1 ZCerberus

I think this theme looks great! With so many sets, it seems to me this is the girlish answer to Ninjago. Now parents can buy sets for both kids and they will be able to play together in the same scale world.

Excellent creation. My favorite parts are the natural rock work and the stairs. Thank you for including photos of just the "stage" so we could get even better view of all the details in the architecture of it.

We all float down here. Nice custom really. Love the hair. I was afraid to walk too close to a gutter drain for a while after that book and movie.

Hearing there are new quests posted, Cinna walks into the hall and over to the quest board. After studying the two new quests posted, she writes her name under Quest #4: Taming the Lions.

Higher quality light sources. The good daylight balanced compact florescent start around $9 each.

I may have been a little harsh on the details, I do realize this is a small freebie set. I think the biggest issue with this set is the color. If they had gone with 'dark nougat" or even just orange, it would have been so much closer to the licensed product.

Join Spongebob and all his best friends for a day of fun at Glove World Amusement Park. There are giant chocolate ice-cream cones, a turnstile, and a spinning ride. What could be better? Set#: 3816 Name: Glove World Theme: Spongebob Squarepants Year: 2011 Parts: 169 Minifigs: 4 Price: $19.99 Browsing the LEGO shelves at my local toy store, I happened across this set. At first I skipped over it because, honestly, I'm not a huge fan of Spongebob. As far as licensed sets go, this theme is fairly decently priced though still more than I'm usually willing to pay. This set, however, caught my eye with two features. The first being Chocolate Ice-cream! A new flavor for all my townspeople to enjoy (and other MOC uses I won't go into here). The second feature with this set is that it comes with four (4!) minifigures with such a low price-tag. In the past, I have only seen these figures in the more expensive sets from the theme, so this was a welcome surprise. Packaging The box is a decent size and not flimsy. It looks like this is the new narrow style boxes TLG has started using, which I first started seeing in the Ninjago line and after that in Star Wars. It's nice that they are not "wasting" as much space and have figured out how to do that without sacrificing the area needed for the artwork. Box Front Typical licensed theme box front with the license logo taking up a good portion of the design. The actual set itself is covering most of the box though, and this time we get a good look at each minifigure with the stand-up photo on the bottom right. I really think that the photo in the bottom right of the box front is overkill. Looking at the photo of the completely built set we can see what figures are included, why are they then placed again on the same facing? I just don't get it, I hope some kids don't think they're getting two of each figure. Box Back I really like the back of this box better than the front. The photo of the completed set is more impressive without all the logoing to get in the way. The action of the characters is a bit more dynamic in the scene on the back too, though I think I'd rather have at least one character still in the ride. One of the most important things that is illustrated on the back of the box is the interactive feature of the set. The fact that the user can spin a wheel and make the ride come alive is plainly clear from the illustrations. I think this will definitely help a child choosing between this set and the car-boat set if they can't get both. Top Unlike some sets this size, the top of the box does not have any indication of inventory. I don't think an on-the-box inventory is at all common for a licensed set, but I know that I always appreciate when it is there. The typical "actual size" minifigure photo is on the top of the box. Bottom The bottom has your basic copyrights, LEGO logo, and barcode. Left Side Not much at all here, LEGO Club logo and the LEGO logo itself. Right Side Here we have warnings in a couple of languages. Not sure if I'm the only one that feels this way, but it's really creepy that there are random Spongebob body parts on the edges of the box. Parts Stickers The stickers are small and few but nicely printed. They were tossed in the box with everything else and got a bit bent, but no major creases or damage. I don't see them being very useful outside of this set, with the exception of the ice-cream sign. These are unique stickers to this set (at the time of writing), and would probably be useful to someone creating a larger Glove World moc. Photo from spongebob.wikia.com Polybags The set came with two bags. Bag one is the ice-cream/turnstile building and bag two is the ride. The minifigures are split between the two bags. Packaged Heads Two of the heads are prepackaged together. I'll talk more about the figures in their section though. The plastic on this bag is a bit thicker and not quite as clear as the other bags, which leads to a cloudy look in the photo. The thicker plastic also made it more difficult to open, but it's that standard packaging for the set parts that are made in another factory (such as cows, goats, chickens, and other modified heads and headgear). Bag 1 Parts Not too many parts for the first step. It's always nice to get some new larger plates, even though these two tan ones aren't huge they are a size I don't have many of in tan. The two clear goblets are nice too, but most importantly is the brown ice-cream scoops. Bag 2 Parts Here's where most of the parts are. Lots of brown which I really like, and some dark brown in there including a tile. A few 4x4 plates and some long 2x plates too. Interesting Parts It should be obvious from this photo why I bought the set. Ice cream and minifig parts. The rest of the parts in the set are nice but nothing that I'd consider special enough to warrant picking up a set. The squirrel head I think might be useful for a MOC if it doesn't end up being too stylized and recognizable, which is a good possibility. Like I said before, this is my first Spongebob set so it's exciting for me to have light-flesh printed legs so my fleshies can finally go to the beach in shorts. The Patrick torso looks SO much like a baby that I feel that it will come in very useful at some point. The striped torso is a great soda-jerk or ice-cream-man design with a nice bright red bow-tie. I really like the space torso with the nut logo, I have had it on my wishlist for a while, though I have no use planned for it specifically, I just think it is very cute. And finally, that great clear sphere that fits right over a minifig head. I've been wanting one of these for a while and I think it's just great. Instructions Even though there are two parts to the build, there is only one instruction book. I was disappointed with the condition of the booklet as I pulled it from the box. As with the sticker sheet, it was tossed in haphazardly and didn't fare well. It took quite a lot of work to get the booklet to lay down flat enough to even get these photos. Booklet Front Your typical small set book with nearly the same design on the front that was found on the front of the box. Booklet Back Very common back, I am really getting awfully tired of this design/advertisement but I'm sure TLG has a reason to keep putting it on sets with this general target audience. Random Page The colors and lines are nicely printed. I had no trouble telling which part/color needed to be used in which step. Each step is really small and does not have the parts-used call-out like so many larger sets do. It wasn't a big issue here since there were not that many parts to worry about. The Build As you might expect from such a small build, it was quick and easy. There are a few Technic parts used in both builds, but even these are very straight-forward and what I'd call "dummy proof". The Minifigures Definitely the highlight of this set, the minifigures are wonderful. I don't really need the Spongebob figure, but I do like his brown short legs. The fish head will probably go straight to BrickLink, and probably so will Patrick's head. All the other figure parts are very useful to me. Front Here's where we see the good stuff. I really love the prints on all three printed torsos. New designs are always good for my growing collection. Patrick's legs are also great, though I do realize they are available in more than just this set. Sandy has a new torso here which is a slightly different print than the one in set 3831, and her legs have gone from light-gray to white, though both of the Sandy figures have light-gray hips. One disappointing thing about the Sandy figure is that the helmet does not have the pink flower print as seen at ToyFair 2011. The Spongebob is a print unique to this set as well, though it is similar to a print found in three other sets. Back Sadly, none of the minifigure parts are printed on the back. The fish head does have fin, which is painted, though I'm not sure I have a use for this part. Side From the side view we can see just how far Sandy's bubble headpiece juts out over the flat minifig body, and we can see the molded fin on the fish head. Also of note we can see the slight curve to Patrick's head. Bag 1 - Tickets & Ice-cream This part of the build was very quick. I'd say if I hadn't stopped to take photos, it would have been under five minutes. Partially Complete This is easily the strongest part of this model, structurally speaking. The base is solid and the turnstile spins (that is the red Technic piece on the right). Complete - Front Not a bad-looking design in the end. I don't really care for the red on the edges of the pillars though, but this may be accurate to the actual cartoon itself. Even though I don't watch the show (but have in the past), I do appreciate accuracy to the license. While attaching the red sign to the header, the model broke appart on me at the point where the red round bricks are. It was a bit frustrating but in the end it looks nice. Complete - Top As you can see this is a long and narrow build. The building itself is only 2 studs deep which does cause some issues (as mentioned above). Complete - Back Very similar to the front, the back does have a place to attach the ice-cream vendor to the base. Other than that, not much to say about the back. Extra Parts There were only two extra parts for part one. I can always find a use for a clear dot, but the yellow bushing is not as useful to me. Bag 2 - The Ride I really like the design and construction of this model. It goes together easily but has a solid feel to it when finished. The interactive spinning of the ride and the way the buckets are setup to self-center works great. If I ever create a carnival MOC, this ride will be included in the build for sure. Partially Complete - Front The base and tower is complete. The sort of bell-curve shape of the design is what give this model it's stability and yet keeps it from looking too bulky. The only part I don't care for here is the red Technic brick. There is not enough red showing to tie it in with the red on the other model and the red peak on this model, yet there still some red showing that makes it feel out of place and distracting. I would have preferred a medium-blue Technic brick here. Partially Complete - Back From the back view we can see that the spinning handle has been added in white. This part is available in tan, white, and red - why they didn't use red here is a bit confusing. I do like the use of this round brick as a spinner handle, better than some of the other designs I have seen. Partially Complete - Side 3/4 View From this angle it is easy to see how the spinner will work. A simple design that works flawlessly and needs no gears. Come to think of it, I bet this would be very easy to motorize. Partially Complete - One Complete Basket I like the design of the baskets. They are well put together and sturdy. They also look nice, even when empty. If I could change one thing, I'd like the front tiles to be printed instead of stickers. Complete - Front Picture perfect (except for my one crooked sticker), this is a really nice model. There is just enough friction in the spinning part that it can really balance the baskets at any angle, but I like this one. Just seeing it sitting there makes me want to give it a good spin. Complete - Side As you can see from this view, everything is well-balanced and safe. I've had no issues with parts falling off with use or with the model tipping over. Complete - Back Other than the protruding buckets, the back view is identical to the partially completed back view from before. Complete - Front 3/4 View Just another angle to better see parts and build quality. Extra Parts Three extra parts this time! All three of these are useful to me and I'm happy to have them. The Full Build - Complete Practically like the front of the box, this little scene is cute. I am not sure it's safe for Spongebob to stand on the ride, but he does whatever he want's to in Bikini Bottom. I think the ice-cream vendor is trying to tempt Patrick to come buy another 3-scoops. Conclusion This set is a lot nicer then I initially expected it would be. For the price (around $20) you get quite a few minifigures and they are all from a licensed theme. The main model design itself is done really well, and the whole thing looks good. I don't feel that this set was thrown together to "get a new Spongebob set out", I do believe some real thought went into creating it. Design: 8/10 My only complain on the design is the flimsiness of the ice-cream stand/turnstile building. Though doing much more here would have probably bumped the price up to $24.99. Build: 7/10 If you are looking for a challenging build, look elsewhere. However, if you want something quick and solid that has interactive features, buy this set. Parts: 9/10 There are a lot of useful parts and colors here. Not even counting the minifigures, we have medium-blues, browns, and dark browns. Playability: 8/10 The interactive spinning feature of the ride is the big deal here. Without this feature I think it would deserve a much lower rating. I did have to take off points because of the tendency of the other building to break apart when handled. Minifigures: 9/10 These four figures are all full of personality. Even though I bought the set as a parts-pack (including minifigure parts), I think any Spongebob fan would be thrilled to get four great figures in a little set like this. The prints are all very nice and I have no complaints here. Price: 9/10 The $19.99 price tag on this set is very reasonable. I don't think I would have considered it at a higher price, and being a licensed set with four figures, I'm not sure it would be feasible at a lower price. TLG has really hit a good mark with this one. Overall: 9/10 A good set at a good price. Lots of great parts and figures. Overall a sturdy build where it matters and I could see a child really enjoying this set. Bonus Photo: Patrick's Had TOO Much Though it looks like the vendor is still selling him more ice-cream!

Here comes Grem, the outcast Gremlin with something to prove! Set#: 30121 Name: Grem Theme: Disney's Cars Year: 2011 Parts: 54 Minifigs: none Price: Free (Original) This small set was a giveaway in Sweden and I managed to get my hands on one by winning it in a contest right here on Eurobricks. This is my third Cars set to date and my first of the small single-car sets. Since the set wasn't released in the USA (as of this writing), I thought it would be a great candidate to review. Other than the two printed parts, most of us MOC builders probably have all the parts to build this set on our own. Packaging Front Nice bright red colors and Cars logo. The photo of the finished model almost looks unreal, I'm not 100% convinced that this is the actual model - I think it might have had some editing or possibly be partially computer generated. The angle of everything just looks a little too ... bendy? I'm not sure if that is the right word but something about it doesn't sit right with me. Packaging Back Standard boring polybag back. Lots of warnings in lots of different languages and illustrations in case the buyer can't read yet. Let's have a look at the parts in this bag. I've decided to divide the parts photos into red/not-red because over half of the set is red parts and the rest are a bit of a mix. Non-Red Parts There are a few black parts you would expect for a car model, quite a few light-gray parts and a smattering of other colors. Most of the other colors are used for structural purposes rather than looks - personally I'd much rather have consistent colors. For example, the blue plates should be light-gray, and the yellow could easily have been black or red. Red Parts Lots of red parts here. The printed parts are both red and most of the model is red. Interestingly, for such a small model there are only a few really tiny parts, which is the first indication that there won't be much detail on this model. Interesting Parts Of course we have the printed parts - standard for the Cars theme. These parts are nicely printed with crisp lines and good details. They did a great job of capturing the personality of the cars with the printed parts. I really like the giant flame and those are not too common so it's always a nice part to get ahold of. I don't think the red 1x2/2x4 bracket is new but I certainly don't have any, though I do have similar brackets that are 1x2/1x4 and they are great for SNOT. The train window could come in handy for something in the future too. Instructions Folded Again a standard for polybag sets. The instructions are printed on one sheet front and back, and folded very small. It has basically the same scene we saw on the front of the packaging. Nothing too exciting to see here. Instructions Inside Theme Advertisement This was interesting because the advertisement depicts only three of the sets in the theme, but not even every large set. The size of this image is approximately A4 paper, which is, in my opinion, too small for these sets. It is very difficult to see much detail and nothing here would make me want to go buy the sets. I think a better way to go would have been to do a much larger image of just one set, perhaps Flo's V8 Cafe which is one of the more interesting sets in the theme. Instructions Unfolded Here we are with the instructions open and ready to start building. The print and colors on the instructions are fine. I didn't have any black/dark-gray confusion issues like I sometimes do on larger sets - though with only one dark-gray part it would be difficult to get too lost. The instructions continue on the back but half of the back is used for the theme advertisement. The Build - Halfway Well that didn't take long! After about a minute I was halfway complete with the building of the car. Everything went together easily and there were no big (or small) tricks to figure out. It's your basic car build and made even simpler by the one-piece chassis. The Build - Halfway Plus Back The only change here from the previous photo is that I've added the back section of the car. This portion uses an nice part that I first saw in Alien Conquest Mothership (in light-gray), the 2x4 curved slope. This small SNOT build isn't much to write home about, but perhaps good for a kid to start thinking about more creative ways to build. The Build - Complete Here we have the completed car. It's small, like all the Cars models, but a solid build a kid could actually play with. Everything is fastened tightly and doesn't feel like anything will fall off when you play with it. I think the fire could poke someone in the eye, but hopefully that won't happen! With Arm Up The window arm can move up so that the eyes are fully visible. This is a good feature that could have been easily overlooked. This is really the only way to properly see Grem's eyes since the window opening is so small. Front View The view from the front of the model. Watch out for that blow-torch fire! If you look closely at the front bumper (really in any of the photos that show the front bumper), you can actually see a thin blue line from the plate used underneath. This is why I think the plate should have been light-gray. It isn't fully hidden and any part not fully hidden should be a color that goes with the model. "Torch" Side View From this angle we can get a good look at the fire and the robot arm used as a welding torch and arm. Back View Here we can see the back end that I showed you mid-build. The white tile is used as a funny looking license plate with no print. There are no tail lights and no windows. Very ho-hum. Bottom View Yes, it's very black. Most of the base is a single part. What I don't like here is that you can see the blue plate easily and it really distracts from the overall look of the bottom. Now normally, I do realize, the bottom won't be seen at all. However, that is no reason to be sloppy with design when all they would have had to do is provide the same part in a different color. Top View Boring! Well at least they tried to hint at the fact that he has a luggage rack on top. There is really nothing positive I can say about the roof or hood design of this model, I don't care for either one. The roof is boring and the hood has an unfinished feel to it (one more tile is all we needed). Conclusion Overall a cute but underwhelming set. I do realize that it is a giveaway (at least initially) and that it is a polybag set. However, I would like to have seen a little more care taken to better match the actual Cars character. I have a few complaints that I would like to share with you. As you can see from the Pixar image above, the color of the car in the movie is a rusty orange - this car is red. That is not anywhere near the right color. They could have gone with orange, dark-orange, or the rusty-orange color. We know they have a nice rust orange color, it was used in the Prince of Persia sets and still used in the Harry Potter sets. It could be that they didn't want to mold these parts in that color, but would that have really been such a huge issue? I really don't know, but it would have been a lot better set if at least the color had matched more closely. My other major complaint is just the lack of detail and care given to the design of the car itself. I think they could have done a little better on the blow torche, though I do like the fire and applaud the designer for not going with the very small "trans-neon-orange" flames we see so often. The roof and hood, as I've mentioned, just have an incomplete feel to them. The lack of any sort of tail lights is very disappointing (trans-red tiles would have been a better choice than the red tiles they used, and would have solved this gripe). Design: 6/10 I've seen better and I've seen worse, even for this size model. I really feel that there are some small improvements that could have been made to increase the quality of this design. Build: 8/10 The build was not bad at all. It was simple but also had a hint of SNOT to it. Parts: 7/10 Nothing to write home about here, of course the printed parts are brilliant - but it IS a Cars model after all. Playability: 9/10 Excellent playability with this model. The build is solid and can stand up to zooming the car about and even crashing it without breaking apart. The prints are actually protected by the bumper and the window which means we may be able to find these two parts in good used condition on Bricklink some day. The ability to move the window off Grem's eyes without having to remove the whole assembly is a good design choice. Price: 10/10 You can't beat free! This was initially a giveaway in Sweden and I got my set from a contest right here on Eurobricks. For me as a builder, as of the time of this writing, the price for this set on Bricklink is INSANE ($25-$30) for what you get. However, a Cars/Disney/LEGO collector would probably find that price perfectly reasonable for a set not available in most countries. Overall: 6/10 I would buy this set in the store if it was around $2.99. Not having a minifigure would really kill it for me at any higher price. This would probably be a nice gift for someone that was a Cars 2 fan or collector as it's something they are unlikely to have seen before.

This set is small but still offers lots of chances for fun. The white Fabuland figures are some of the most difficult to find in good used condition, but I wanted a nice bright-white Bulldog for my collection. My solution was to track down an affordable MISB set with the figure in it and this little set fit the bill perfectly. The parts are great and, of course, the Fabuland figure is oh so cute. Set#: 3786 Name: Buzzy Bulldog Theme: Fabuland Year: 1982 Parts: 8 Minifigs: 1 Price: $25 Current / ? Original Packaging Front I don't feel right calling this a box, it's a very simple clear packaging with cardboard on top. The front depicts a photo of everything in this set put together in a little scene. Packaging Back The back seems to have a scene built out of all of the Fabuland sets available at the time, though I'm not sure because I don't have them all (yet). "Instructions" After peeling off the strip on the back of the cardboard header, the package opens up to reveal even more cute scenes the designers came up with using just the parts in this set. The Parts Since there are so few parts here I've only done one photo with all of them. I really love all the parts. It's great that this version of Buzzy has a hat that can be removed. The tiles are just wonderful, the basket is nice, and the printed mailbox is great too. The Minifigure Front, Back, and both side views. As you can see the molding and paint on the head are very nice. On the photo of the back view, you can see that the hat does tend to leave a little blue mark (upper right on the ear) sometimes, but that can be taken off with a pink eraser. I left the mark for the image just as an FYI for everyone reading the review. Below I have built a rendition of nearly every scene in the cardboard. The one missing is with Buzzy looking out through the mailbox - I tried everything but he is just too big to get into that position, I am thinking they either removed his head an propped it up with bricks or removed his legs to get that shot. All the scenes together actually make a fascinating little story. Scene 1 A simple scene, he is dropping off the mail into the mailbox. Now I've never seen a mailman do this, but perhaps it's a Danish thing or he is just tired of delivering mail today. Scene 2 Buzzy is hiding in the mailbox! Maybe someone caught him dumping the rest of his day's work in there. They might notice his hat and basket sitting beside the mailbox though. Scene 3 Apparently the danger has passed and he is going to get on with his deliveries... Scene 4 ... but not before a little fun with the mailbox lid! Scene 5 It's back to business just as soon as he finishes getting those parcels out of the box. Summary Review Playability:7/10 - There are very few parts but none of them are "stinkers". The printed parts are all excellent and no stickers! Design:9/10 - I think this goes under design, I took a point off because of the impossible pose they have inside the cardboard flap. Price:?/10 - I got a pretty good deal on this set, to pay $25 for it (going rate on Bricklink) just seems too high. From what I can gather so far, looks like it was probably around $2.99 in 1982 which seems reasonable but is the equivalent to $7 now. Minifigure:10/10 - Buzzy is easily one of my favorite Fabuland figures. The head mold design is perfect and instantly recognizable as "Bulldog", and the face paint is perfect and gives just enough detail to offer some personality without being too much. The best part about this figure is that the hat is not glued on. I'm not sure when TLG started gluing the Fabuland hats, but I absolutely hate it when a figure is not available without the hat (it really limits some play/pose options). Overall:9/10 - For it's size and what I can only assume was a low price in 1982, this set has a lot of personality. Bonus: Scene 6 Looks like the Fabuland folk are finally getting the letters, it appears one letter is going by airmail.

Thanks Thanks I love this head, it's great that this is a head that A)acts and turns like a regular head and B)can be used with items that go on the neck (such as bandanna).

Got my order today, couldn't help but immediately build a custom minotaur. I did switch the long horns for actual cow horns though.

I think it looks great. If I built armies, I'd probably do something like that too.

I'll take those. could really use them.

just buy the gems on bricklink. I bought some (I had every color gem except the purple) and it was very reasonably priced.

Brickdoctor beat me to it.
