    The Bear is great. The wall is fantastic, I love the texturing of it. I especially like the door on the wall. The small building is creative and the cobblestone floor is neat. I like the story as well.

    Nice build. I like the look of the wagon and the ballista on the back is nicely done. It looks like it will do a lot of damage in battle. I like the landscaping and rockwork too.

    I like the tower. The battering ram is good and I like the path. Wish there were more pictures to show different angles but not to shabby.

    Nice scene. I like the way you did the floors. The battering ram is cool and your figures are interesting.

    Nice little scene. The landscaping is wonderful. I really like the water effect and the flowers. The figs are great too and nice story.

    I also voted for the zombie pirate. I just think he had great printing over the rest in the group. Plus zombies are always cool.

    I think you have to take into account that back in the 80's and 90's castle minifigs had limited printing and no armor printing where as today everything is very detailed with printing the armor on knights is printed like the cmf good knight and the frightening knight. Several of the kingdoms knights had printed armor and torsos. And the heads have more details with the eyes and facial expressions and facial hair. Some figs even have dual sided heads so figs are more expensive to make. I personally think the minifigs today are excellent compared to the ones from the 80's and 90's.I But yes I do agree with you that Lego knows what they are doing as far as minifig distribution. They know people like to collect them and therefore make the exclusive ones in expensive sets so people spend more. When it comes to kids my kids love playing with their figs and changing them around and mixing up the parts so I don't think lego expects kids to not just collect them. My kids haven't had issues with quality but I have had an issue with one of the cmf where the face just came off when I touched it. I do have more issues with arms cracking. Those have been my only issues so far. But that's my 2 cents.

    This is a really nice build. I love the interior. The candle holder is a nice touch. I like the texturing of the exterior walls and the black and white looks nice. The landscaping is very cool. This build has that old 1980's vibe to it great job.

    I vote for the wolf. I really like the head mold.

    Great build love the texturing of the walls and the roof looks excellent. The tree and the base are awesome. The fire creature is fantastic. Great job.

    Legoman123 Lego will never do ww1 and ww2. They have already stated that several times but there are customs lego shops like brick warriors and others that sell ww1 and ww2 style figs and accessories. Lego also does study groups with kids to find out what they like so its not like they just wing it with themes and guess what people want. Don't worry castle will be back soon. Nexoknights is only set to run three years so after next year we will see some new castle sets or maybe even sooner. Lego ran a regular castle theme while the hobbit sets were out. Just have faith.

    We just had several waves of the hobbit and lord of the rings and they threw us some regular castle sets in with those waves. And before that se had a steady flow of castle sets with kingdoms and fantasy era. Pirates is a little more sparatic and Western hasn't been done for a while. Castle was going strong for a while so I don't get your statement unless your not counting lord of the rings and the hobbit.

    Lego doesn't do anything with real wars or modern warfare.
  14. zoth33
    Great build. I love the base and the tree itself is very creative. The story is great along with the figures. Overall fantastic job.
  15. zoth33
    Nice little scene. I like the slope of the land and the trees. The minifig is nice, what torso did you use?
  16. zoth33
    You just proved my point with your last statement. All I build is castle or fantasy moc's and I have been getting castle sets since I was a kid that is the theme I love the most. I understand it sucks not having a true castle theme out now but there has to be some sets you like that have good figs or parts for mocing. I think we got spoiled with all the lord of the rings, hobbit, and castle sets recently. I always find useful parts and figs in the ninjago line and star wars has some good sets too. I also find a lot of the Marvel and DC sets useful. Usually people who are into castle/fantasy are into science fiction also. All I'm trying to say is there has to some sets that you think are good. I'm not beating anyone up about it. I just find the villains from nexo knights very useful and a lot of the pieces I can use to build other projects with.

    This is crazy. Just like the Walking Dead thing that Quicksilver mentioned above people are getting out of hand with all this complaining and whining about things that aren't worth it. There are so many other problems this world needs to fix first. I think people are just to sensitive now a days and cant take things or opinions for what they are. Just like Vaderfan2187's comment above about right-wing people I mean its legodalekbusters opinion not everyone has to agree with everyone. Why cant we just all get along.

    I don't think this theme is bad. I love fantasy/castle, Vikings, pirates, and star wars. It's not my favorite theme either but I do think it is creative and fun. The minifigs are excellent and I find the sets fun. The colors are fine and the quality is good. My youngest son loves the theme and the show. I think lego created something new and fun that the kids like. My two sons also love Ninjago and still like the show and the sets. It will be interesting to see where this theme goes but they have definitely done a great job with the villains. I know a lot of people are upset that there is no real castle theme but like others have said pirates, space, or western themes get done with long breaks between releases. I don't like some sets out there either but I buy the ones I do like or ones I can use parts for MOC's. I think people just need to find the whatever they like and go with that and not complain about sets you don't like. Find some sets that you do like that you can use and be happy. The negativity on these forums gets out of control some times. Why cant we all be happy this is supposed to be a site to bring people together that all have the love of lego in common not why we hate things. Instead we should be enjoying the hobby we all love.

    Nice work. I love the landscaping and the ruins. The minifig posing is great. I like the effect of the grass on top of the ruins.

    This is very nice. I love the pillars and the roof. The statues are nice too. How did u get the Pegasus wings mounted? I really like the overall design.
  21. zoth33
    This is fantastic. I love the castle and the way you used the masonry bricks. I like the use of the green hair for trees. The windmills are great and the houses are nicely done. The buildings inside the castle are very creative. Great parts usage all over.

    This series is your best yet I think the whole series is exceptional. The spooky knight is insanely good I love the tattered clothes and the broken helm. The winter sprite is fantastic I love the printing and the new hairpiece. The android is great so detailed. The celtic warrior is awesome love the facepaint. The evil genie is nicely done. Love it all man.

    Those are all fair points. I just remember the latest pirate line being highly scrutinized for being to bland and a repeat of old sets. I just think ghost ship is neat looking and would be fun to build. I think it is getting hard to please everyone because everybody has different tastes. That's why I think lego has done a great job recently with all the new themes they have created and all the new licenses they have acquired. Over the last ten years or so they have made so many new pieces and even made UCS sets that cater to adults. Just look at the CMF's they try to make a fig for everyones tastes but people only pick up the ones they like. Its just very hard to please everyone in my opinion.

    I don't understand all the hate for the SM. I think lego was trying something new rather than just the same old pirate ships they have cranked out recently. Even lord of the rings got a pirate ship. I'm glad they went the ghost ship route I think it looks pretty cool and like the ship from the trailer. It seems recently everything lego does people complain. The beauty of lego is you can make anything out of lego and use your imagination. Just my opinion.

    Nice build. I like all of the sorcerer's and how they are all wielding their magic. The tree is magnificent. overall nice job.
