You've got some great ideas Grevious. Here's the one I keep repeating and updating: Dark Wizard's Castle From this mighty dark castle the Dark Wizard plots to rule the entire world! A group of brave knights and dwarfs go inside it to find out more about the secrets of their enemies. Will they escape alive from its dark walls? Will they have the skills to overcome the traps, the enemies and all the other dangers the fortress hides? Includes one Crown Knight at foot, one mounted knight*, two dwarfs, three goblin soldiers, one troll, the Dark Wizard**, and more! *** * with chrome silver greatsword, silver barding, ovoid shield and, hopefully, a plume piece ** What if he got a redesign? *** Including the troll it includes a total 10 minifigs. King's Castle siege does, too.Since Lego likes to include little useless launching devices that kids seem to love, the set would have to include a siege machine for the good guys, also they would slap on the castle a pair of ugly catapults, similar to the ones in Vladek's Dark Fortress. The castle would have traps and details such as a spinning wall, a prison, a trap door that I miss so much, a large throne room and a well done drawbridge (similar to the one from the VDF). Price: 90-100 Euro, I guess. This is my dream set. X-D Shakar

I took the large Castle poster and I circled some things and I added a few notes. Here it is. Due to the PNG conversion the red I used to circle and write became dull, so you may find difficulties in reading some words. I apologize for this, if you have problems feel free to ask me, I'll have no problems in telling you what I wrote. Shakar

...he'll let Chuck Norris punch Davy Jones in the face. He becomes the new captain of the Flying Dutchman and sails to the Fountain of Youth, but Beckett and his crew pursue him...a mighty naval battle begins!

:'-( I must admit that it looks a lot better. I'm not yet sold on those legs. They suffer the same fate of the Striking Venom legs, they look too..uh, Technic like? Too full of holes? You know what I'm talking about. Don't get me started on Ryo's flying thing. The design is a bit lacking, but the prison and the overall shape of the models are really neat. Oh, this is what Swiftone (who works for Lego) said over BZP: That is pretty cool. I hope that it will look like a proper head. One more thing...if this set, seen for the fist time on the newest Lego catalog, is already out, could it be that my beloved Dwarf Mining, also seen for the fist time on the newest Lego catalog, is out? That would be great. Shakar

Since I only own two of the grill helmet soldiers (one from the Prison Carriage, one from the Skeleton Tower), I use them as the King's bodyguards. I equipped each of them with a dark bley axe and an octagon shaped white and blue striped shield from Vladek's Dark Fortress. In this way: 1)I have 2 spare silver shortswords 2)I have two spare crown shields (one ovoid, one trianglular) 3)I have 2 spare horses for 2 of the knights that I'll aquire with the Tic Tac Toe set 4)The bodyguards look more elite like, with their own special shield design. Since I'll have more of the visor knights with the Tic Tac Toe set, I'll use them as regular cavalrly, using either silver bardings or a normal dark bley saddles. I'll probably give them red triple plumes. The mounted commanders are visor knights with white triple plumes, dark blue capes and gold bardings from the Final Joust. I still have to think about the foot commanders. I'll probably do the same thing: soldiers similar to the ones from the Chess, with a dark blue cape to distinguish them from the regular soldiers. What about those Skeleton Knights? I'll have to think about them too. I don't need spares of them because my own is the supreme general of the Undead army. Some spare black minifig elements, spare armours, spare skellie heads and spare scytche blades don't hurt, however, that's for sure. Shakar

Oh, I didn't read it correctly, my apologies. I really don't know what to say...other than that I'm kinda scared.Shakar

The person above me may be right. Shakar

What if it's just a mismolded (sp) piece? You said that there was only one in the set. Shakar

A little box came to my house yesterday. It contained Jaller Mahri and the Castle Chess set. Awesome sets! *sweet* Shakar

Remember the Lego Indiana Jones videogame trailer? It clearly showed the classic islanders in a dark flesh skin tone. Maybe they'll use them for the (hopefully real) 2008 Pirate line? Shakar

....the Kraken swam away and told (yes, told- he can talk, too) everything to his master. Now Davy Jones is very angry....

...defeated the grass entity with his magical scissors..

Seems like an interesting story, just let me give you some advices for the minifigs: Lord Henrik: pretty good, but I'd give him a helmet visor and the silver armour pieces the 2007 knights sport. They would make him look more.. heroic. Andamir: I like this guy the best. The Dragon Master torso fits well here. Maybe you could give him a cape, to make him more...mysterious? Vampire soldier: he could use different coloured hands (red, for example) and a shield, like the Fright Knights one. Besides this, I'd say it's good (no pun intended). Vampire Warlord: I like the *vader* face and the long black hair, but I can't see a vampire using that torso. Peraphs you should use the Studious vampire torso for him? That would work perfectly, I think. Shakar

...wherever the Fountain of Youth is. Apparenly, the explosion the end of AWE did nothing but aging him of 52 years, so he wants to return the handsome man he used to be. Optimus-convoy, Trooperdavinfelth and Sinner are now forced to serve under the East India Trading Company. Little does Beckett know that he isn't the only one who wants the Fountain!

The person above me has some dak plans. Shakar

Castle Tic Tac Toe! It's wonderful. 10 good minifigs with acessories (they need shields, however), case and board at 15 Euro. That's not bad. Shakar

...Chuck Norris comes back, ready to take revenge on Sir Nadroj! The fact that he is now a gungan make things even worse. If Chuck's tears can cure cancer, then what does his saliva do? Our heroic gungan will soon find out...

The persons above me made me understand that message. It seems like an honest wizard is accused to be a pimp...for his purple hair? I dunno. Shakar

The person above me said something that I can't understand. Shakar

That wasn't exactly what I was thinking about but....yes. X-D That torso is great, it is very generic and I'd like to see it in more colours.Shakar

Hmm..all modern ones, specifically rap and techno. Classical music is the way to go. Shakar

The person above me is starting to understand things. Shakar

Hey, just thought of something: what if next year the Necromancer got a redesign, like Vladek did for each year of KK? Red and black could be swapped, resulting into a new outfit that is black with bright red details (the hips, the hands, the hat and the cape- a red cape with collar, or another black/red vampire cape). Not to mention...black Imperial Guard Torso! Shakar

The person above me is mistaking an honest wizard with crazy hair for a Sith. Shakar
