If I hadn't been lucky in getting one of the Bricklink " Castle in the Forest" sets, I'd have bought the 3-in-1 castlese too. I still might if there's a nice discount near their EOL time. But the set will battle with the recent viking longship set. Must get the torso's in that one.

10305 Lion Knights' Castle 90th anniversary set
GeoBrick replied to R0Sch's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
Personally, I would have liked it being called "The Count(ess) Castle" (or Duke's/Duchess) for a change. Simply for variations sake. There's really a King overkill in medieval LEGO world already.- 2,976 replies

GeoBrick replied to woodford86's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
I would try get both of them. -
Is it worth spending the money on sealed MVR/MMV?
GeoBrick replied to woodford86's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
Last year I had a couple broken pieces after dismantling my Medieval Market set (opening shelf space for the Ideas Blacksmith). I sent a broken pieces replacement request to LEGO, and received them a week later. So I wouldn't worry about that. -

GeoBrick replied to R0Sch's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
Why did you have to post that? Now I'm torn between saving VIP points for such an eventuality or cashing them in to have the castle a bit cheaper?!!!- 2,976 replies

Nice collection. I see you keep boxes as well. ;) For the dust problem, I bought a tall glass cabinet for that, so I have roughly a third the display space you use. All the rest of the collection is in parts or closed cupboards. I do hope to find at some point another display cabinet with more interior space, but those with substantial depth (as your cupboard) rarely come with front glass panels.

Latest impact of other themes on historic themes
GeoBrick replied to Wardancer's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
They didn't provide the silver helmets? I suggest you wait a couple months and check out the new Lion Knight legs. Or, if you have one already, try out the new Falcon legs to see if it fits with the silver arms of the torso. -

GeoBrick replied to R0Sch's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
One of you appears to have migrated? Well if a MOCing endeavour of this set aims to enlarge the build (not much wiggle room with the angled sections, I admit) it should be possible to incorporate a light brick in a vertical position for the bedroom/dining room.- 2,976 replies

[MOC] Lego "Aether" Interplanetary Space Station
GeoBrick replied to ParmBrick's topic in LEGO Sci-Fi
You made microgravity a good thing here. I especially like the last line of your creations' intro. Bravo! -
I'm... stumped!

Flying saucer designs of the 20th century often had a huge canopy on the top of the hull. Hell, even LEGO released a couple such sets.

It is a very sleek ship, and needs only a few forward-pointed red beams of "ahem" to fit completely as Blacktron design.
-
Well, appearantly the rest of us can imagine its bigger, despite its sleekness and other such features that demote the set to a 'jet fighter' status for you.

As far as I'm aware, Pick A Brick doesn't count for double VIP points? Perhaps its different on your side of the Atlantic...

[MOC] Lost on the bazaar at sunset (updated)
GeoBrick replied to the Inventor's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
Nice brick-build storks there. I see you build part of the mosque wall upside down to create this hanging effect of the ornamentation. -
Merely that, if a set is deliberarely based on an older legacy set, there's not much room for innovation.

40 years ago, all was new in LEGO terms. Anything that came out was novel. Nowadays, there's a history of 40 years of sets and the work of countless designers what the current crop of them have to keep in mind. Last year the choice was made to come up with reiterations of these old sets instead of something entirely different to celebrate the 90 years of the LEGO Group.

GeoBrick replied to R0Sch's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
Wouldn't work. You can't combine quivers with it. No, what we need most is foresmen's hat with (female) hair attached, akin as the pirate tricorn from the CMF female pirate and the Barracuda Bay female mate! Last year I bought a fair number of extra Falcon legs to attach to the old Black Falcon torso's. Looks reasonably well. If given the chance I'll be doing the same for my old Lion soldiers torso's.- 2,976 replies
