    This whole build is great Kai NRG. The building flow together nicely. The terrain is great. I especially love the trees I don't think i've seen anyone use the grass pieces in that way for tree leaves before. The waterfall is wonderfull. The minifig posing is spot on too. Great job.

    Yeah I know TRU has made alot of mistakes and its not just amazon sending them under. I was commenting more on the fact that people are worried about lego sales because TRU is going under. I think lego will be fine. Looks like buying more lego online for me.

    I have a man cave that I have all my lego in. My kids have there own collections. I'm currently in the process of cleaning my basement and that will clear up space to move the small foosball table out of my man cave that will clear up space for more storage containers and shelves. My wife has her spa days and does things with her friends. Happy wife = happy life.

    I think you are over hyping the whole TRU thing. There's a reason why TRU is going out of business its called online sales they just cant compete. Lego will and is making up sales online.

    Honestly who the hell cares. There are much more important issues to be solved. It seems like some of you have a lot of negative energy. Try releasing it at a heavy metal concert like i will be later this year. Just a thought.

    I hear ya there. I just try to take what Lego is turning out now and buy the sets i think I can use for my builds. I just love expanding my own castle universe and love finding new parts and figs. I'm not trying to argue here. I just think its interesting how people think sometimes.

    Fair enough. I totally agree a modular castle theme would be great. I was a kid in the 80's and a lot of the old castle sets from the 80's and 90's. And after I got out of college and started building again Lego came out with fantasy and I bought a lot of the sets, Then when kingdoms came out I also bought alot of the sets. Even when the 2013 castle line came out I bought a bunch of those. Yeah it wasn't the best castle line but I used alot of the parts and figs for my own builds. Believe me I want a castle theme as bad as you but it will get really old if a castle theme does come out and people trash it, then if the theme ends and people start complaining again why we don't have a castle theme. It just turns into a never ending cycle of whining.

    I understand what you are saying I just think its funny that now that there is no true castle theme out people complain that we don't have one but when we have one people complain its to childish or the colors suck, or the heraldry is boring, etc. I can't wait for a new castle theme to come out so people can trash it then complain when there is no castle them.

    You do realize its a toy for children. I know they have some sets for us afols but its mainly for a younger audience. I get that we all want what we want. And they said they have adult study groups but that also depends on their preferences and what they like to build which alot of afols build city, trains, modular, star wars, etc. Not all afols like castle. I mean the people at LEGO aren't stupid they have a solid product that reaches millions. I think they know what they are doing. Look at some of the new FB/Harry Potter sets coming out, I think they are pretty sweet looking with alot of great parts. I think if we are just patient we will see something special for us castle fans. These things take time to develop just give it time.

    I watched Tommy Boy again with my kids recently. God I miss Chris Farley he always made me laugh.

    My oldest son made a brick costume for Halloween a couple of years ago. I think their are some great figs in this series especially the dragon. Great review WhiteFang.

    I really like the hut and landscape. The base is really cool. Your figures are great too.

    He lost it in Ragnarok when Hela destroyed the hammer. Its in the movies. So if you haven't been following them that's why he has no hammer and has a new weapon for Infinity War. The movies are good you should watch them. The sets are really nice though. I really like teenage groot. The outriders are cool. I really like the Thor set. I can't wait to get the rest.

    Exactly its like the big oil companies complaining they only profited 3 billion instead of 4 billion. I mean this had to slow down at some point. Just like the economy of the world will have ebbs and flows. As far as Toy R Us in the US not all stores are closing. They are keeping the one in waterbury CT open. I really don't think that's going to affect sales. Everyone is buying things online now. Amazon will soon take over the world the way they are going. Lego just needs to have a little better set selection and start including more figs in sets and reduce the number of sets they release. That's just my 2 cents.

    He has done a nice job with the shannara chronicles. I hope its going to be something entertaining.

    There are plenty of americans that like LOTR, GOT, the vikings show on the history channel and now the show Knightfall. Both my sons like fantasy adventure. My youngest loves all the hobbit movies. Whenever my kids friends come over they all want to play with my lego collections especially the knights, dragons, trolls, etc. There are alot of those build your own civilization app games for your phone. So I think there is a market for it. Lego just needs to find something that will appeal to the masses and roll with it. Although I'm sure some people here will find faults with it then complain when there is no castle theme. So hopefully Lego can find a castle theme that most people will enjoy and flesh it out like kingdoms.

    I would love if they used some of the villains in concept art for Nexo Knights like the skeleton warriors or the demonic looking ones. I think those would be great to have. I would love a griffon faction too. But I do agree with some of you that we need castle is different colors other than gray when a new castle theme comes back. I must say the new armor piece for the tech vampires in Nexo Knights is very useful. Hopefully some of our dreams come true.

    Pretty cool man. I like how you did the rings. The base and backdrop is great too.

    I think your missing the boat here. You make it sound like we haven't had castle for ages. Nexo Knights is aimed at kids not us afols. I don't think lego was trying appease us castle and space fans by creating Nexo Knights. I am an avid lego castle fan love anything castle. I would love to have any castle sets. I hear what you are saying. But I am also a lego enthusiast and love to build and create new minifigs. This is my favorite hobby. All I've been trying to say is that I use several other themes to build up my castle world, especially when there is no castle theme or lotr theme running. I use parts and figs from marvel, DC, elves, nexo knights, ninjago and star wars to boost my armies and help create my buildings and landscapes. You guys make it sound like lego is crapping all over us on purpose and I dont think that is the case. I just try to enjoy lego and will wait for the next castle theme to come. In the meantime I find what I need through the other themes.

    Lego produces several adult oriented sets every year look at the ucs sets, the fishing store, several of the technic sets, creator, and modulars. They definatly wasn't ignoring us. They have always been a kids based toy but have given us afols plenty over recent years.

    I think the only properties Disney didn't get from fox is fox sports and fox news. I think it may be possible to get deadpool again. Disney is just trying to gain control of the whole marvel universe that's just my opinion though.
