its looking good so far, I'm not the biggest fan of grey for a mast but I'm sure it will all work out in the end.
I do however love the colour scheme on the hull
thats a good price, when it come it england and america you guys get the lego cheaper anyway though you could be right about the slight overestimation
I'll change it.
Eldorado = £120 - £80
ITP = £100 - £80
Enchanted Island = £50 - £30
I don't mind what we get as long as it contains violence in some form and possibly pirates.
Steampunk would be the way forward for me, victorian sets with a healthy dose of steam power (hang on that might be half of Monster Fights)
foaming at the mouth is fine as long as your don't start getting the urge to sink your teeth in people rather than LEGO, I too will definatly be getting this if it comes out (which I think it will), it just looks too cool and like something I have not seen them build before.
This sounds like a lot of work, if you want advice on a few sets sure but to determin the fair cost of all, that will take time.
Here is a couple of sets and the prices I would pay
Eldorado Fortress = £150 - £100
Enchanted Island = £60 - £40
Imperial Trading Post = £140 - £80
Good luck with it all
definaatly deserved the blog, really great work, I love everything about it, the quality and detail of it all is amazing, words of praise don't seem enought, I am in awe
the old ninja was 1000 times better than this blasted ninjago (though I would say that as im an old man with a nostalga complex), count my vote though I doubt it will do any good.
I agree that it can get messy but somethimes a gem or two can be found, for example i got the cannon cove set for £5 on ebay and I got the black falcons catapult for £8.
It takes alot of effort but occasionally you can get a decent deal (but not always).
and as Im from the UK bricklink is lacking occasionaly and export costs can be quite alot (for example I won't even look at sets to buy from the US or Canada)
I shall mourn Kingdoms passing, I got every set and I was looking forward to more, LOTR will fill the hole but I was hopeing to build up my Dragon Knight army the easy way and possibly get a castle for them ohh well Onward to Bricklink.
