Re: CCC IX: Maison de la Motte (wooden castle)

This is excellent, great stuff! Motte and baileys are so underbuilt in LEGO, glad this contest got a decent number built. This is a really great example. I love the hill especially. The trees are also excellent.

Re: THE HOBBIT TRAILER

I expect good things from the movie but the trailer was honestly not that interesting to me. I don't like a lot of trailers, though, so there you go.

Re: CCCIX Bandit Raid - Vikingr Attack!

Thanks guys! Excellent build. Where did you get that black and white shield? Viking Catapult versus the Nidhogg Dragon. :) I had to look that up... that explains why I only have the one. (the funny thing is I could have sworn that was the one first-wave viking set I didn't get, though now that I thi...

Re: CCCIX entry-Hermit's Hovel, Laughing Jacobs' Creek

This is silly and whimsical and I love it. Backstory, landscaping, and the teeny house are all great. :3

Re: The Decline of Lego Castle?

And honestly, when I see that joust set, I see a bunch of nice parts in that gate. Not only that, but I see a pretty great design. I had the oppourtunity to see it up close and in the flesh at Brickcon, and I really like the architectural style of the gate. It's much more embellished and pretty tha...

Re: The Decline of Lego Castle?

When I buy a set at the moment it's because I like the minifigures or the new parts are interesting. That shouldn't be the case. ...That's debatable.

...That's debatable.

And I've rather enjoyed all the sets I've gotten within the past year.
