SWMAN

I think you're overreacting a bit on some sets :-P . Here's what I think: Droid battle pack: you're right about this Clone " " : you're probably right too Grievous fighter: I think EITHER Grievous OR Obi-1 Y-Wing: 1 pilot, 1 crew guy and some maintainance vehicle Landing craft: pilot and 2 stormies AT-ST: just the crew I agree with your thoughts on only the atst. For the starfighter, it woudl not include just obi-1 because it is grevious' starfighter even though obi-wan flew it. If there is just one, I think it will be grevious. For the y-wing, lego has shown htat hey are willing to give us more than one pilot on sets, such as the upcoming x-wing, or the b-wing. I think it will have one ground crew, but maybee 2 pilots. For the landing craft, I want more than 3 figures for $65. I think that lego has shown recently that they want to include more figures again, like they used to. The Trade federation MTT for TPM had 7 droids,a dn carried troops. I think that this will have a pilot, 4 troops, as I sadi earlier. But, lego may let us down and use this as an opportunity to give us main characteres that we have lots of, like vader or something.

They all sound awsome. Here are what I think will be included. Droid Battle Pack- 3 Battle droids, 1 super, and a destroyer droid Clone Battle Pack- Either 5 AOTC or ROTS Clones, different ranks Greivous fighter- Greivous, Obi-Wan, and fighter Y-Wing- 2 Pilots, ground crew and a-wing transport vehicle Landing Craft- Pilot and 4 Storm Troopers AT-ST- 2 crew and Biker scout with bike

For anyone who hasn't heard, there is free shipping at lego S@H in US until August 15 for any order $75 and up. I just spent $100 a few weeks ago, which is a shame. If I hadn't, I would be buying the star destroyer.

I don't know about old castle ones. But, do you remember the star wars lego figure packs about 4 years ago that had 3 figures. They had battle droids, luke, vader, and the emperor or han and boba fett. Well lego had to discontinue those because hasbro is the only company with the rights from lucas to sell lego figures, no matter how big or small, individually or in packs. I wish lego could have continued the sets, and had army sets, like clones or battle droids. But, sadly the could not.

I have no idea. If I saw the answer, I would probably be disgusted. If I had to guess, close to $800. That is a rough guess, it iss probably more.

If you think you had damage, you should have seen mine. It was crushed in all 4 corners, and when I opened it, the green baseplate was cracked. I am getting a new part from lego as we speak. It was shipped UPS, and the outside brown box was in the same condition, with a big rip. One interesting thing about the box. On the top where they show all of the minifigures, instead of the blacksmith, they show another bull knight, identical to the first one, even though there is no other knight.

I can't pass judgement yet, because I don't have it. From looking at instructions at classic-castle forum, there are one or two drawbacks, like stickers, but it still looks amazing. The best castle set since classic castle stuff. I don't mind about the plain torsos. I plan on keeping the armor on. It would be nice if they had decoration just for taking off the armor. But, lots of figures, shields, and weapons. Another thing I would change is to bring back the old short swords. I liked those a lot. tHe KK ones look like power rangers, and they are just weird. I just go it. It is great, except for one thing. The green baseplate was cracked. This is due to the condition the box was in, which wasn't good. I was beat up the in horribel shape.

I think I will. Is the set not available in Europe. If it is, you should get it. I will get mine on tuesday, but from the pictures online and reviews, i can't wait. The only major drawback I have heard of is stickers. All of the shields and banners have stickers you need to put on. That means at least 10 minutes of peeling, placing, and re-peeling. But, I am still escited. This set will allow for many adventures and battles. I mainly got this set becasue I already have quite a few lego knights and casle figures, ranging from classic to king leo a few years ago. I have King Leo's castle, but it is totally destroyed and the pieces are scattered, so i don't have a castle for my men. The best I have done is an outpost of sorts. It is a bunch of those rock wall type pieces, built onto oneof those raised, caslte green base plated, wtih 2 gray platform pieces and rock pieces on that, so they can stand elevated, and hide behind rocks to ambush people. By the way xwingyoda, did jipay start this forum. He has over 100,000 posts, and is member number one? Just thought I would ask.

Ben posted a review on classic-castle.com. Here's the link. It's at the bottom of the page. His profile says he lives in "Saint Louis, MO USA". That's odd. I live in the same general area, but will get mine on Tuesday. I think that he probably used faster shipping, but i am on a budget, and son't want to spend anoth $10 for it to arrive a few days earlier.

Don't know if i'll do one. I'll just have to see if someone does one first. I don't think it is available in retail, only lego stores, so many people might not get it before i do. It will get here monday, which is only 5 days after its release on wednesday. By the way, as anyone else ordered this set? From the sounds of this post, no one has yet. I know it was just released wednesday, but I know a lot of people who order as soon as something is out. And, if someone has who lives on the east coast, you will probably get it before me. Don't wait to see if I am going to do a photo review before you do one. I am more than happy to let anyone do one. I recieved mine from LEGO on Friday and built it yesteray. I was surprised at the large amount of 1x light bley bricks and inverted slopes. The set has several nice features including the dungeon and blacksmith. While the set could be better, it is one of the best castles on that particular baseplate first used in 6091 King Leo's Castle. The figures and new colored ghost are very nice. Ben 2 Questions. One, whre do you live. If it is on the east coast, not suprised you got it so soon. They ship from CT. Also, what figures does it have, and how many of each?

Great figures with cool designs, and lots of them. Allowed for massive army building and battles. Also, cool castles and other buildings.

Too bad it is not available in Mexico. It looks really great, and I can't wait for it to arrive on monday. I am not mad at him, just a little frustrated.

Did you actually take the time to read gusmoore17's initial post ? :-| *yoda* Calm down. It is just a simple question. I don't have time to read every word. I am sorry if my post takes up valuable space. And, if this is how you treat new users, then I am suprised anyone comes back. I am the one that you blocked my first post.

Just ordered it on Lego.com on 7/19. It looks awsome. it has classic castle, with awsome new features like the forge and torture chamber. Those are a good use of that under space that is usually wasted. Figures look kind of weird, mix between KK and old king leo. Still, I am excited about the arrival.

Question, is this the actuall set that is being released, or is this your own version. I am guessing that you bought the set, but it looks different than picutres I have seen. Did you spice it up with your own ideas? Also, what is with the minifigures. They don't look like the ones that come with the set, and if they are, did you change around the armor and such. It looks great, but I am still not sure if this is the boxed one. Thanks.

What are your thoughts on this new set. Personally, I think it looks really fun. It comes with a good amount of knights for each side, a king, and an improved castle. I have the 2000 King Leo castle, adn this is a 100% improvement. It has more areas, better defense, and the cool forge in the back. Also, the figures are pretty neat. I like the idea of the armor One thing I am scared of it that the shields will be blank, and you will have to put stickers on those, as well as the beanners. I don't know if this is available in Europe yet, but it was released on 7/19 for order. It was for preorer before that. I ordered it online on 7/19, and it should arrive on Monday, 7/24. I will do a pictorial review hopefully when it comes, but maybee not. Comments?
