Thanks, it's always great when someone appreciates it. --- So let's try to make a list of what the 'factions' we want Good Humans Bad Humans Bandits (Robin Hood) Dwarves Orcs/Goblins/Trolls Elves (?) Ents (?) - Maybe its best left to MOCs Honestly, I think that a "Mesopotamia" theme has potential. Arabs were the traders in the medieval world, and they could be a nice side theme like Vikings is. Also, if you were going to expand castle LEGO would need to make some more farm animals (maybe Brickforge will provide the impetus they need?). I would suggest (in a variety of colors/patterns of course): Cows -Calves Sheep Chickens Pigs Also, does anyone else think that using Bellville pieces is demeaning? I think that LEGO should make more of an effort to include pieces in LEGO system sets.

I think that my problem with the MM figs is that they have no expandability. They can't hold weapons, move their bodies, wear armor etc. The best thing about LEGO is that everything is interchangable. It seems that with these figs (which most of us use for something other than their original purpose ie. "moss" or "whacking") they have little playability. So how would you guys like to see aliens in the future? I think that Bipeds are the only reall option, but who knows what LEGO will come up with. This thread has done pretty well for a "pointless topic" I'd say.

What do you guys think of the Mars Mission alien figures? Personally, I hate them, they don't even have opposable arms, or individual legs! For those of you that remember the UFO alien series from 97-98, or Insectoids, the aliens were lackluster, but infinitely better than the ones we see today. I think it's high time LEGO puts some thought into extra-terrestrial minifigs, or at least get rid of these terrible Mars Mission ones!! What do you guys think of LEGO aliens?

I love the Goblins/Orcs and Dwarves in the new castle sets, but what do you guys think would make castle better? I would love to see more Robin Hood type characters, or at least more sets focusing on the peasants in the medieval ages. What about Elves? They might be a bit cheesey, but who knows, LEGO could probably pull it off. What would you guys like to see?

I really like how there are so many little side stories in this MOC. How many minifigs do you think are on this whole thing? I like the skeletons trying to climb up the side of the cliff in picture 3.

I think that the fort is very well done. One suggestion I would make is for the tower to be a bit smaller, and if you could match it with the color scheme of the bottom, it would be superb! The use of BURPs is good, but at one point it just gets too repetitive. I liked the cave a lot, it would be cool if you could expand that.
