Yeah -don't worry -I fixed my above post now. I saw your comments. *y* Just incase there was someone else involved -I wanted to thank that person too. ;-)

I would like to thank the contest host for extending the deadline. I'm really glad that I was able to enter -this is an awesome contest! *y* Edit: Whoa Hinckley! As I was typing this message you snuck yours in right before mine! :-D Thanks man! Thanks! The girl's hair piece is actually Princess leia's old one. I modified it a bit with some photoshopping -same with Strider's hair. Though I could have used an exoforce hair piece. :-P Your teaser pics look sweet too -I can't wait to see the whole thing! *y*

Hey guys, I have decided to stop lurking on this site -and start posting again. I hope you guys enjoy my little army builder here:

Oh nice! I love these beautiful pictures -very artistic! The sunset picture is out of this world -great stuff man! Keep up the good work! *y*

Batbrick wrote: Yeah I agree. We need a good castle theme to last as long as KK2 or longer. Unlike the poor Viking line...at least I got one of those sets before production on them ended. *y* Corpreal363 wrote: The wagon is the most "official" part of the set -LEGO loves to throw cheap things into their sets to add to the playability -just like this wagon. ;-) iamded wrote: Get all the Castle sets, then focus on Indy -otherwise you'll kick yourself for not getting that castle set in the future. *y*

Sorry if this has been posted already, but I thought this was a pretty cool picture: Looks like it's going to be a great line! I love the military vehicles, soldiers, and well designed sets! Way to go LEGO! *y*

I have one of each of the following: The crossbow, jousting, and skeleton tower sets, and I'm still waiting for the rest of the sets to come to my local store. ;-) I plan on getting the 08 line yes, unless it isn't very good.

Batbrick wrote: Thanks, I was planning to make a new Castle Line (Rouge Knights), but I could just make new sets for the 07 theme instead. *y* But first I need to buy a new camera... *n*

Thanks for the comment Batbrick, I'm glad I didn't add too many minifigures for once -usually I can't resist adding lot's of them. Sorry about the horse drawn carriage though, but it's always good to have another one of those skellie horses in a set. ;-)

Brick Miner wrote: Thanks! I try my best, because I enjoy making sets designed like real LEGO sets, but I bet you have to be really REALLY good to become a real designer. I'm glad you remembered my good ol' JT sets. *y* I think that's because you enjoy making MOCs like this too. ;-) Wout wrote; Thanks!

Thanks for the reply hewkii9! I thought you might say that. I was thinking of using an offical 07 dragon and just photoshopping it different, to make it look more skelie like. But I scratched that idea, thinking it would probably look cheesy...if i were to make a skelie dragon it would defintly be a challenge -almost sounds like it could become a contest idea. :-D Desgin a skeleton dragon for the 07 Castle sets. *y*

Thanks for the replies everyone! I appreciate them! :-) Now some replies to some of your questions and criticism: Lieutenant Colonel Thok wrote: Nope, it's just a normal 07 black skellie head. I photoshopped some red eyes on him so that might have made the head look more like Darth Maul's. xwingyoda wrote: I actualy thought they looked good on the Inn -very suited to the Castle theme. But I see where you're going with them being Viking references and what not, I doubt LEGO would put these in the set. Klaus-Dieter wrote: True, but I wanted to stay in the current Castle 07 theme, and have the undead skellies being the bad guys. In the new castle line I'm planning on making, there will be human vs human sets. That would be sweet. *y* Mr Tiber wrote: I think we all would -how about in a new Creator set? just think -Creator Castle. *y* Thanks again to everybody for all the comments!

Hey guys, I asked hewkii9 if I could MOC his set a month ago, and I had it ready for taking pictures of for a long time but my camera's acting up, and only yesterday did it finally work properly and I got the pictures taken. Not to mention going to work slowed down my picture taking time. ;-) Anyway, judging by the quality of the pics in this MOC, this will be the last set that I can take pics of until I get a new camera. The old one lasted 5 years, but I think it's had it. Pointless talking aside, here's what I based the set on: The Inn The Inn's break-away wall Lock the barrack's door! Arm the villagers! Market street I rather like this little wagon...simple and effective. Brickshelf folder when public My whole Brickshelf folder Hope you guys enjoy the set! I apologise for the poor picture quality -some close ups on the minifigures just weren't possible, and I hope to get a new camera soon. Also, I cut the dragon from the original plan, I could have used an 07 one, but I thought we'd had enough dragons in the real theme, so I replaced it with a prison wagon instead -forgive me hewkii9. X-D Comments and critique are appreciated. Graynar

Somehow living next to the USA with it's cheap LEGO prices, you'd think Canada would be cheap too. Nope. I'm almost tempted to buy LEGO in the States, instead of paying these insane Canadian prices... :-/

Hehe, sorry about reviving an old topic, but I also have a small Iron Drone Base: Click the pic to see the folder:

Pardon my interuption but this was bugging me: Correct me if I'm wrong, but couldn't Leia be talking about the wife of Bail that adopted her? I don't know if he had a wife or not, but it seems logical. And if he didn't then Lucas screwed something up...

Mars Mission might be fun, I'll have to get some sets first though. Afterall, my goal is to MOC as many themes as I can, so I might just try it. ;-)

Thanks for the replies everyone!

I actually really like that machine, probably because it looks better in person though. ;-) maiq the liar wrote: That's a great name!

I only wish I had some more gold pieces to use other than some golden castle elements. :-/ DARKspawn wrote: Thank you! I always wanted to make an action playset for the EF sets. I'm off on vacation now so I'll see you guys in 3 weeks.

Thanks for the replies guys, I really appreciate them! :-) Starwars4J wrote: I was just trying something differen't, and I always wanted to get a scythe into a mecha themed set. *y* BTW, the Castle theme is going to be a Rouge Knights one because I felt that the Rouge Knights needed to have some castles for their armies. And you'll defintly see Rouge Knights waging war against the Morcian armies. ;-)

Hey, I'll probably start the new line mid summer. Unfortunately, I'm going away for 3 weeks so that doesn't help much, and it wouldn't hurt to get some of the new castle sets first too. ;-)

Hey guys, The final set of my custom Exo-Force theme is finally finished! You can also check out the first four sets HERE. Now then, onto the set. As usual, here's a fake LEGO set version: I would advise resizing the fake box art pic above, other wise it looks disorted which is not cool. *n* Here's the whole set. Check out the minifigs...I kind of invented a hero, hehe. Check Ja-Kia's description HERE. Here's the dropship, able to take 4 drones into battle. Check out a big description of the ship here. This is a cool Irone Drone machine, gives them the ability to fly. Check out the anti-air turret. Here's the defence tank, my favourite vehicle in this set. The GC (Golden City) defence tower. The turret can move up and down, while revolving. Check out the tower controls HERE. This is the mountain's secret control and armoury room. And of course, the accessories. And that's it for my last EF set. I hope you enjoyed it. I'm planning on make Castle sets next, but I was also hoping to make Pirates some time soon too, even though I have no Pirate ships to build from. Battle for the Golden City Brickshelf Gallery The Whole EF Gallery My BrickShelf Folder Your comments and critique are appreciated! Thanks!

Awesome job! This is the most authentic, realistic, LEGO producable set that I have ever seen online! Well done! I'd love to see more sets like this from you. *y*
