Lot of Kingdoms/Castle Sets for Sale

Good Day Classic Castlers! I am doing some Winter Cleaning and selling some sets. I wanted to offer them here, in a castle community, together as one lot before I put them on an auction site or Bricklink. All sets are new in sealed boxes from a smoke free and one dog home. I am offering the followin...

Re: Your most purchased sets

I usually pick up some Prison Carriage rescues when the local Toys R Us has a BOGO. Great Army builders!

Re: Your LEGO budget

Ug. Budget. I've probably spent a little over $1500 the past two years on lego just for me. Some months nothing, some months $200. Bricklink is the devil - so tempting and so easy. But not always the best value. What I would like to be able to do order certain pieces in the $70 boxes of lego at the ...

Re: Ye Old Forge CCCVIII Medieval Maintenance

This is pretty sweet looking! How's the playability? My wife is like like that annoying playability rule. I can spend whatever I want and build anything I want out of Legos so long as the kids are able to open it up and play with it. And I thought the Japanese were handcuffed with with the 276 horse...

Re: Castle Themed houses

Nice job captain! I love your designs, and I'm sure they will make your castle moc look superb. I really like all the colors you have managed to incorporate. I may have to use one of your designs as a template for one of my own creations(if that is ok, of course). Keep up the great work, and I look...

Castle Themed houses

Here are some castle/medieval/bavarian style house I've made over the past year. I posted them on MOC pages a couple months ago. I am ready to embark on the building of a big castle after a few frustrating failed attempts - but wanted to post the pics of these houses! http://images.mocpages.com/user...

Re: What do you think about my latest MOC?

Great MOC! I really like the vehicles you have created and you scenery is not overwhelming like so many others. Sadly - because I'm a cynic, I've deduced from MOC pages Castle section that if you don't tile everything, have exaggerated rocks, cover everything with vegitation on steriods, and spend 8...

I have pinkitus and possibly Greenitus??

So a couple weeks ago I loaded up on Prison Carriage Rescue thanks to the TRU "Buy Two Get One Free" sale. I got some checkered Lion minifigs with the pinkitus (4 out of 6 figs had Pinkitus). I was just in the process of emailing Lego Customer Service about the, ahem, "defect" wh...

Re: Which kit for parts?

Has anyone had any luck getting a lego store to actually order a specific $70 case of pieces? I live close to the new Lego store in Columbus, OH and have asked two or three different employees on my last few trips there about ordering a box of a specific part. They all seem to say the pieces show up...

Re: Dragon Knights Battle Pack = SOLD OUT

I wanted to buy some of these aswell, but I have my doubts about the quality of the figures however. Are they just of the normal quality or cheap plastic? Just wanted to ask to make sure before I buy them. ~ General Magma I've received 4 packs of the Dragon Knights, but have only opened one. upon i...

Re: What were your first Castle sets

My first castle set was the Armour Shop in 1986, which I used birthday money to purchase. I still have the red Lion Flag in PERFECT shape. I don't ever remember the set coming with a black sword though. I would have loved more castle sets as a kid, and did get two or three more small sets, but some ...

Re: Second Kingdoms Wave?

I always liked the Forestmen as a stand alone faction as you could pitch them as independants. They could plunder and pilfer either Black Falcon or Lion Knights in years past. Just bring back the lovely original line of Forestmen! As far as a Dragon Knight's castle, I still think the best lego Castl...

Re: Castle walls

This really isn't a new wall/panel piece. It's been a round a little while, I believe on set 6242 'Soldier's Fort.' My wife is a Manufacturing Engineer so we have little discussions like this all the time, especially since I'm out of the dark ages in full swing. The move to make this wall in BLEY is...

Custom Plumes and Feathers??

Hello All! Long time lurker, first time poster. :eyebrows:

Does anyone make custom plumes or replicate plumes similar to the single feather and triple plumes?
