There is a lot to love with this set, as it definitely feels like a more advanced castle build compared to the usual fare we get (not counting S@H exclusives like MMV or Joust). The curved walls and ramp, the break up of the Big Grey Wall Syndrome with different coloured and textured brick bricks, t...

Hmmmm, definitely an interesting match-up. Both sets are what I'd consider to be the flagship sets (the main strongholds) of their respective factions. Both are complete structures 360 degrees around and both are fully self-contained (I mean, neither is necessarily part of a larger structure, compar...

Considering the Black Falcons' colors are black, white, blue, and sometimes yellow, it is odd for 6073 to have the red highlight around the gate; seems it looks more like a Crusader castle. As far as BFF, it wins style-wise in my opinion. Along with the other points above, BFF stood out from the com...

Well, this isn't really an MOC per se, but I, like others around here, have felt LEGO was somewhat lacking when it came to the diversity of their medieval figs and factions (how many Lion and Dragon factions do we need? :spin: ). So, using only official LEGO parts (no customizing), I have assembled ...

I agree, the price of $50 does seem a little steep. I figure this Castle Juniors line will mostly be mined by AFOLs for unique elements (unique colours and/or uniquely printed pieces). I'm guessing that all the wall panels you see with decorations are printed elements (not stickers), as is the case ...

Welcome aboard, Blue! Good to have you here!

In regards to the old horse headgear not fitting, what about the possibility of warming the existing headgear (in very hot to near-boiling water) until it is malleable and then placing it on the new horse head mold so that it now contours to the new shape? As a purist, I doubt seeing myself doing th...

I agree the Fright Knights theme was a ridiculous mess, and it's not so difficult to figure out why Castle effectively vanished for seven years thereafter. What is difficult to figure out is how Lego went from releasing a set like Black Knight's Castle to this in just five years. Looking at the new...

Looks like we will finally have a new supply of 1x3 arches in light bley (previously only available in two sets from 2004). Also, the set is awesome. I will definitely be shelling out the cash to get two and "complete" the set (notice the 4 black 1x1 technic hole bricks at the bottom to at...

...though I'm not sure which torso it is, or if it is custom.... I believe the torso is from a Speed Racer fig (a theme I've found several useful torsos from): http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItemPic.asp?M=sr010 I agree the fig looks really nice. As far as the sword, I like seeing something other t...

Yes, this looks much better. Now THIS is Edge!

Great job!

I like Edge, though I always preferred Yang as the karate master in my party. Anyway, from your link and this link http://www.japtou.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=11113 I would point out that Edge does not have a white torso or wear white gloves. I'm trying to think of a good to...

Wow, a love-fest for KKII... never thought I'd see the day! :spin: Anyway, for me, the greatest asset KKII had to offer was the shield variety. We got: Ovoid: Scorpion (black and red) Scorpion (black and silver) Karzon Snake : all these are great for desert (or Prince of Persia) armies (including th...

There seems to be a lot of interest in depicting religion through LEGO, yet due to TLG's reluctance to produce religious minifigs, fans have had to be creative. I hope this thread will sort of serve as a guide or reference for fans looking for inspiration when creating such historical figs. Feel fre...

I have always been fascinated with ancient Egypt, and this is by far the most impressive Egyptian MOC I've ever come across. I really don't know where to begin with the praise, so I won't even try. The only thing I would change would be to maybe have tan plates outside the walls to represent sand at...
