What other SW "Battle Packs" would you like to see?
SWMAN replied to BearHeart's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I want them to make some for all types of figures. Everyone can use more figures. THe CT and BD ones were cool, and lego really needs to make some for all types of figures. It is also a great chance to make some new figures, like Rebel Fleet Troopers or Endor Troopers. -
Look what I just got - Report your latest Pirate LEGO acquisitions
SWMAN replied to V()()D()()'s topic in LEGO Pirates
What is all that in U.S. dollars. They seem cheap, but I wouldn't know how much they are compared to other items on a foreign Ebay. On the U.S. one, pirate sets are expensive, along with all the other lego sets you can find. -
From what I have read, the Republic cruiser isn't set to release until late 2007, along with the Hoth base. We probably won't see pics of those until we get closer to summer and the other sets come out.

Spiderman sets are stupid.

VEry nice. They all look really good.
-
Nice set. the pics were too small and you couldn't make them bigger, but other than that it was very nice. The words just showed up as symbals for me. Too bad.

Have you pre-ordered the new Millennium Falcon yet?
SWMAN replied to Starwars4J's topic in LEGO Star Wars
It is a lot of money, and I don't want to spend that much. It would also take a lot of patience and concentration, which is something I lack. It has a lot of grey pieces, and would be really hard. I like system sets beter. -
Voted for Endor. It had opportunity for new figures, including Rebel trooper and Endor Han/Luke/Leia. I have also always liked the battle. I want the Hoth set just about as much, except for the lack of new figures. I am excited for the new Hoth Set coming out, and hopefully an endor set will follow.

Way better than before. I still don't know about the shiled generator and ion cannon. These might be too big for lego to make and give credit to. I am still curious how they are going to make it, so I will not pass anymore judgement.

What warped world are you living in. Lego has never releases and will never release a set that size. even some of the old castle sets never had more than 15, much less the 40 you are talking about. It is just not plausible. It would have to be close to 200 bucks. No one would buy it, and it owuld just be too big for lego to make. I wish it would be like this, but it won't be.

The High-Res pics look amazing. The castle is actually a castle, not just the front. And, unlike KK, this theme is more classic and focuses on army building with the King's Soldiers, not just four knights. With KK, you couldn't have any battles. It was more for people who liked following the story Lego made up. These sets are just for building up an army and having huge battles, like with classic.

If you are talking about the Special Collectors Series Castle that was $100, don't buy it. It may look good online and stuff, but don't get sucked in. I, unfortunatley did. It is a nice set, but not worth 100 bucks. It is too much like the King Leo's castle from a few years go. It only has the front. There are three king's soldiers, a knight, and a king, which are all nice. It also has a wizard, dwarf, and two evil knights. The real drawback is that lego decided to experiment with stickers for the shields and mini banners. Unless you are a sticker master, they are a pain and are slightly too small for the shield. I would suggest waiting to buy all the 2007 Castle sets, which look amazing.

Hope the set you just confirmed is not the set in this picture. It is really small and the head looks like a piece of junk. It looks like a prototype.
-
1 and 2. The ones after that were sad excuses to keep it going.
-
If you have seen the movies, you know that it looks nothing like in Episode I. I was hoping for a revamped version of the one they made a few years ago. That one was good, but just needed a few tweaks. This one looks like they took a mini set and supersized it. The pieces make it look nothing like the movie. I think the best set this year is the MTT.

What Series do you wish Lego never made
SWMAN replied to V()()D()()'s topic in General LEGO Discussion
4+ Pirates was a bad attempt to bring in small children using Pirate sets. They were just all around bad, and served little purpose. -
*vader* Get what you like the best. The one thing I did wrong was I decided to like all of them. I now realize that I mainly love OT sets, and want more of those. The new '07 sets look pretty sweet, but I mainly love OT sets. Focus on whatever sets you want. Just a hint, the ROTS sets are few in numbers in the stores, and they only offer a few online. Episode II sets are only available from Ebay or Bricklink, and the OT sets are the main sets on Lego. com and stores. If you want sets from atleast a year ago, you have to use Ebay or bricklink. Happy Hunting! *yoda*

What would make Castle 2007 better than Classic Castle
SWMAN replied to BearHeart's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
Even though I never had any CC sets, I think that nothing could be better than CC from what I have seen. They jsut have that air of playability and simplicity that sets don't have anymore. -
I wans't refering to you.
-
Who doesn't think they should make more sets. There are endless posibilities for new sets, it is endless. A few re-makes would be good, especially of some of the older sets.
-
Nice list. I got the original Jabba's palace sets, the one large one and two small ones, when they came out. They were poor design, included bad figures, and didn't allow for a lot of playability. I would be glad to see lego make a new one.
-
I think viking is dying. When it was first released that it was coming out, people were excited. But, when they discovered the Vikings only fought big technic monsters, they weren't as excited.
-
*wacko* No way. The spiderman sets could have been good, but trying to incorporate them with Legos grand idea of study sets (yeah right) made the sets really bad. It is too late for Spiderman. The second Movie legos kind of revieved it, but I believe it is a lost cause.
-
I unfortunatley missed the golden ages of Castle, and was not interested in lego until Castle in general was all bukt over. I only have two sets, and both are not even built. I am saddened frequently that I have no nice castle sets. I could, but ebay is too expensive. All that beside, your castle is really cool. I like the idea of the combining of both sets.
-
Two things- First, Lego wants an excuse to release new figures Second, it is an easy set idea that can be redone every time and given new figures that die-hard fans will buy to make a better overall castle. I love the movies and books, but after the second round of legos, I stopped loving the Lego sets.
