Ralph_S, your minifig scale cars are fanastic. It looks as real as those on the streets. For me, I personally love the bus very much. Of course, we need some mode of transport to ferry the citizens around. The classic taxi is superb and it's defintely a great addition.

Although I do not have a town to show all EB members yet due to lack of space again, but these are the following recommendations that I will share with you for starting up a new city. Cafe Corner (10182) Town Plan (10184) Green Grocer (10185) Market Street (10190) These sets, when combined can easily create a very nice street filled with great buildings. Do get at least one of the above, before they are completely wipe out from any stores. Getting it from EBay and Bricklink will be much costly. However, when you get at least one of them, the tendancy for you to complete it is much higher. Every City will need basic facilitles such as Petrol station, Police station, Fire station, Airport, Harbour, Houses, Hospital and etc. Do note that, the current city theme is a little hard to match with your much older town theme. Do take alook at the sets, and device your town plan layout of your own.

Glad to see the new change However, I will like to ask is the forum title "Lego Star Wars" correct? I thought it should be aligned with the rest of the forum titles such as LEGO Licensed, LEGO Star Wars.

Excellent Interview, ImperialShadows and Staudie!!! These are great stuff about KD. The scenes layout are done very well, in addition Staudie's speech bubbles are very lovely. It brings much more interaction in its pictures. Keep it up, guys!

MacK, this is a very great MOC. I am not an expert on naval vessels. But, the size of the big gunboat really appeals to me very much especially the turrent. The smaller vessel is sleek and quick. Great for fast pursit. For a moment, I was really decieved by that table top as a puddle of water. I find that this is a very smart way of bringing your vessels across to us.

I just got back from the movie. Went to watch The Chronicles of Narnia, Prince Caspian. It's a fanastic movie, filled with a very complete story plot. There are many great battle scenes in this movie, and it's much better than its previous movie. The children had grown up, so except much much more from them. I truly enjoyed this 150 mins movie, and it's defintely worth your time to go and watch. Fanastic movie! Actually, this Indiana Jones 4 makes me wait for a long time (19 years) for it. That's why, when I enjoyed the most which means this movie is worth the wait and they retain the orignal style of Indiana Jones from its past 3 movies. Although, the movie plot is quite exaggerating, but it did not really destory its basic attractive factor which is pulling us to the theatres. I hate to choose 1 out of the 4. I will rather watch all over again.

Wow, I am truly amazed by the poll results so far. It seemed Black Ninja and White Ninja is almost on par with each other. Furthermore, some of the members love the Green Ninja too. My inital thought is rare ninja might recieve higher counts than normal ninja which is common across all sets. SlyOwl, thanks for this great insight. Although, I am a collector of Ninja, but I am not awared that such storyline exist in Ninja theme. I thought it will be the typical kind of good vs evil kind of plot. I am not sure on their alignment. Personally, I view them as followed, Black Ninja --> Carry out assassination Grey Ninja --> Stealth Protectors of the Shogun Green Ninja --> Tracking Red Ninja --> Imperial/Elite Ninja White Ninja --> Leader/Royalty I share the same sentiments as you too, Well, this poll's purpose is to find out which Ninja type/color you will like most. That's why, I did not classify them as princess and etc. Grammer noted and amended!

Most of my City Collections are still sitting in MISB while my own town sets are in boxes. If given a choice now, I will defintely lay out all my City and Town sets, and create an old town of mine. When I was like 4 years old, my dad and I created a town together, featured 1980s town sets. I still have that photo with me in one of my childhood albums. For me, as I grew up, my perception changed and realised that it will look even fanastic with the combination of MOCs and Offical LEGO sets. Without this offical sets, I felt something is lacking in your town. Therefore, a mixture will be ideal in my opnion.

All of the Ninjas that are featured are my favourite. Since it's a poll that I have created, my vote goes to White Ninja. Sad to said that, I never owned any White or Green Ninja in my collection yet. I yearn to have one to lead them all. In addition, Red ninja are my favourite and it will be my second best choice. Sinner and the admins, thanks thanks for your great help.

Hello all Eurobricks Members, This is my first poll that I will be conducting. I do apologize if my layout of the poll is not pleasant or user-friendly. Do give me any feedback in any way for me to improve the layout. Thanks. Firstly, I will like to gather feedback and responses for Ninja theme which is produced from 1998 to 1999. This theme is short-lived and probably the only theme apart from Orient Expedition, to focus on Asian perspective. Secondly, this poll will allow us to find out what are the general responses and liking towards the 5 Legendary Ninja which exists across all Ninja sets. Generally, I feel that most people will choose White Ninja. It's just my gut feel of mine. These are some of the following pictures which can be used as a reference, Credits: (marakoeschtra, Brickshelf folder.) I am not able to find detail images through open-source.

I understand that this is an old topic when I am browsing through the search relating to Ninja polls, and I am glad I found this. By reviving it, will allow this topic to generate more responses towards Ninja theme. Personally, I feel this theme is a fanastic theme which I had missed most of it. Recently, these are some of the reviews which provide some in-depth towards some of the mentioned sets in this poll. I hope someone out there whom have the rest of them is kind to do up a review too. 3053: Emperor Stronghold 6083: Samurai Stronghold Some other Ninja reviews I found, 4805: Ninja Knights Do let me know, if you had found any Ninja reviews, I am planning to do some Ninja reviews within a week or two. As for my votes, it went to Emperor Stronghold. Why is that so? For this set, I am able to obtain a decent fortress which is able to house my armies, even though its not as big as Ninja Flying Fortress. However, most importantly the rare elements which appear in it are the famous White Ninja and the Samurai Barding. Furthermore, it includes two red ninja along with it. I loved this set very much and sad to said, I have not been able to find one which meets within my budget yet. I owned only one set out of the six sets which is 6083 Samurai Stronghold. I am glad I am able to find this. It certainly makes my day bright when I am building a set which is out of production 10 years ago. Do share your thoughts on these Ninja sets mentioned and give your views.

Location: L13 (Inside Imperial Tavern, Black Knights Kingdom) Lord Kenneth turned towards Siloux and the rest “Staying here for the night will be my recommendation. We will move out first thing in the morning. I will inform the innkeeper and my men to make preparations for the night. Diana added “We can’t rush things. Let’s have some rest for the night. Meanwhile, let’s enjoy some sumptuous ribs. We missed the ribs earlier. This is my treat to all of you.” Kenneth stood up and said “Flynt, enjoy your dinner. Don’t worry about the earlier matter. I will join the rest for dinner later. I need to speak with the innkeeper regarding our lodging.” Siloux added “Will Grandoth joined us tomorrow? I sure hope he will come along with us. He is a very good chap.” Diana sighed “I have no idea. Meanwhile, Cecil can you tell us more on the “Symbol of the Nine”? Pardon me. I had heard little about them.”

Location: L13 (Inside Imperial Tavern, Black Knights Kingdom) Flynt and Grandoth turned their backs and took a glimpse of them. But the smell of the delicious ribs distracted them, and pulled them back to their ribs again. Kenneth stood there for a moment and tapped on Flynt’s back and said “I find you very familiar. Have I seen you before?” Flynt was busy enjoying his ribs and ignored Kenneth’s words. Both Diana and Kenneth were feeling annoyed by their rude behavior, decided to walk in front of them and sat down. Grandoth realized that Diana was Princess Alyss’s friend and said “Flynt, this girl is our Princess’s friend. Oh no. How rude have we been? We apologize for our rudeness.” Both of them laid down their ribs and give their greetings. Kenneth looked at Flynt carefully “Flynt Caraway! What are you doing here eating ribs? Don’t you know that our country is declared State of Emergency? What is a Guard Commander doing here, eating ribs?” Flynt was startled and recognized that was Lord Kenneth. “I am sorry, Lord Kenneth. I was not really aware that was you earlier. Let me explain to you.” Kenneth rebutted “Save your explanation. I will let my father deal with you later. We are here for an important issue. Before we proceed, let me formally introduce this lady, especially Flynt. It’s important for you to know who she is. Flynt is feeling nervous and said “What surprise has you in store for me?” Kenneth pointed to them “This is our Princess Diana. And you are from Imperial Guards. You should know what your primary agenda is.” Flynt shook his head immediately and said quickly “Yes, Lord Kenneth. Diana looked at Kenneth and said “Don’t scared Flynt, will you. Well, it seemed every one of us got acquainted. Diana waved to Siloux and Cecil to take a seat too. All of them seated down and Diana began “My friends, I will like to seek a favor from you to help us on our journey to Mount Sophia, in search of some Priests that can help us to deal with the earlier Black Wraith Demons. This is my kingdom’s crisis and I intend to eliminate its root cause. With this in mind, I will like the both of you to offer your kind assistance too. I am sure that Alyss will not mind to have the both of you to tag along with me.” Both of them think for a moment. Kenneth interrupted and smiled “For you, Flynt, I am authorizing you to accompany the Princess for this trip. You will come along with us until we find the Priests, then you may proceed with your mission. This may be the only way to salvage for your silly mistake earlier. And, I will consider putting good words in front of my father.” Flynt, leaving with no choice, agreed to Lord Kenneth. Cecil whispered to Siloux and feeling relived “Lucky, I am not under military ruling.” However, Grandoth stood up and said “I need to take a breath. This kind of discussion is not my cup of tea.” He took one of the ribs on his plate and walked out of Imperial Tavern.

DNL, your Castle MOC never failed to impress me. This MOC is no exception too. I am amazed by the scale of the mountain landscape. The uneven terrain looks as real as it. While there is a "mine" within the mountain itself. I love your landscaping very much. I really hope you can win the contest, good luck!

Brickster, another nice piece of addition. These ghastly railroad workers certainly are working very hard to complete the rails through the night. I believed that is the only hours they can come out and worked. Will like to ask you whether the railroad workers are supposed to be more oriential approach or western approach? This is my view only, just felt that either the torso or the cap do not fit each other. As what you have said to Athos , I understand These are some of the toros which I think it will be much suitable for oriential approach, if you are considering red torso. These ninja mini-figs offered minimum armor. You may have come across and considered these torsos before. Hope it is helpful. Lastly, I am always very impressed by your photo-editing skills. Simply outstanding. Never failed to bring out the essence of the entire range of GraveStone.

Edit: I had read your entry carefully, it seemed that you amended the changes on your side to suit my flow. Thanks. There are so many colors in other members' posting too. It can be quite confusing at times, ImperialShadows, just to check with you, will you let Grandoth and Flynt join us to find the Priests in Mount Sophia based on my last post. Diana, Kenneth, Siloux and Cecil are heading towards K13 to search for them. It claimed that these Priests may have the power to track down Black Wraith Demons, and trying to prevent the next wave of attack again.

Finally finished viewing the Indiana Jones, the Last Crusade and the Crystal Skulls over the weekends. Both movies are fanastic. I must admit that Harrison Ford does look much older in this recent blockbuster. However, this is one of the highest anticpated movie that we waited for. Trust me, it's worth while to watch. Despite of some mixed comments, Indiana Jones 4 had lived up to its orignal plot with its past 3 movies. Although, I must admit that the ending is quite unbelievable but this is one movie I enjoyed the most.

Welcome to the fun side of the brick!

Brickster, you should try and get back into "castle-mode". There are so many great stuffs waiting for you such as Dwarf Mine, Tower Raid and etc. However, I can understand that the problem of space is always the key issue. Without space, it is hard for us to keep it on display for big-scale MOCs or for storage purpose. I will be waiting for you to get your Troll Warship too. Hope one day soon enough, we will be able to view a Castle MOC from you too. Thanks ExoBuilder! I did not know that the Crown battlepack has a mini-fig with the scared face. I hope it will reach my shores soon once again. That's lots of battlepack. Share us some images on your collection too. I love to see such big army. For me, I will use these battlepack for army building purpose. I always feel that every kingdom needs a considerable amount of soldiers to defend their kingdom. Therefore, most of the time, the amount of soldiers will dictate how strong that kingdom is in my collection. In the future, I hope to build large castle scenes, combined all playsets, armies everything together and developed a kingdom scene. Of course, that is just a dream for now. I am still currently not able to afford much space and time to do such big scale project at the moment. Meanwhile, for this great castle theme, I am storing them at the moment and take it out when the time is ripe. One day soon, I hope I can post an image or two of my armies.

Diana and the rest went into Imperial Tavern and approached the both of them. It seemed that Siloux had suggested to search for some Priests whom is able to track down the source of Black Wraith Demons. Therefore, Diana will like to know what are their upcoming plans. Currently, Siloux seemed to be the only person knows where is the exact location. As what Diana had mentioned earlier, Black Knights Kingdom had mountains only in the western region, which is known as Mount Sophia, located at K13. Whether Mount Sophia is the correct destination, only Siloux will know. And of course, Diana is thinking how did Siloux get to know Mount Sophia and the Priests.

Location: L13 (Outside Imperial Tavern, Black Knights Kingdom) Diana replied “Of course, Siloux. That will be wonderful. From what I remember, there are nearby mountains, called Mount Sophia. Those mountains are unfamiliar terrain to me even though I lived here for the past 18 years. And Siloux, I am surprised that you know a thing or two about them.” Just then, a group of archers was running towards them and reported to Kenneth “My Lord, we have been looking for you. Where is the enemy now? Kenneth told them “It’s been taken care of. Meanwhile, I required you to convey an order to Sir Percival and Lady Kristine. I will be away to Mount Sophia for awhile to investigate the cause earlier. Both of them will be in command of White Fang force till I returned to take over the command.” Diana smiled “Well, Kenneth, it seemed we have a positive response from you then.” One of the archers suggested “Can we accompany you, my Lord, on your journey to Mount Sophia? We will provide protection along the way.” Kenneth thought for a moment and whispered to Diana “Princess, can my men come along? I need to seek your permission.” Diana looked at these enthusiastic men “Guess, I believe there is no harm for them to tag along.” Lord Kenneth signaled them and asked them to prepare for provisions for the trip to Mount Sophia. Diana turned towards Kenneth, Siloux and Cecil and said “There is one more thing to do.” She pointed to Imperial Tavern “There are still two more persons we should ask.” And the four of them went into Imperial Tavern again, where they saw a big happy family enjoying themselves, eating delicious ribs despite of the earlier explosions. At that end of the table, it sat Alyss’s companions. Diana walked forward and asked “Hello. It seemed that you are enjoying yourselves with the ribs. I believed you are Princess Alyss’s friends and we will like to ask you a favor.”

Although, the tree is a part of HP Graveyard Duel set, but you have taken the tree out and incorporate successfully into your Witch's Shanty set. Therefore, I feel that the credit taken is not more for building that pre-designed tree, it's reflected more on your creativity to make use of existing-sets (parts) and merged it as one MOC of your own. Brickster, thanks for your very very kind comments too. Indeed, it is! It's a surprise to have a witch in Grave Stone.

Now, seriously, I think TLC should really considered your Crystal Skeleton design. It's looks superb. It showed a great deal of resemblance to the movie version.

Hi mrts, thanks for sharing this excllent MOC of yours. Your landscaping is simply amazing and well-done. The foot path, bushes, river are done in a very nice manner. Even that outpost of yours, it looks real sweet. However, I feel that if the bushes or trees will be much taller and thicker. It will be much approriate to stage an ambush on them. It will actually provides the Forestmen some good cover too. I have done something similar like yours. But it's defintely not as impressive or nice compared to yours.

Aluvar had indeed shocked me with this unexpected discovery. What had happened many many years back? I am sure Aluvar's mind is in a whirlwind at the moment, by the unexpected encounter.
