That's what I figure. I mean, "Crownies" really stuck, didn't it? And luckily the Dwarves are lumped in with the Crownies. And Trolls are fairly self-explanatory (whether you call them Trolls or Orcs). And the undead hordes? One wizard and an army of necromantic minions ... not truly a "faction" so much as one very bad guy and some bones.Yes, but 7946 King's Castle is just "King's Castle" so far and "Castle" at the NY toy fair.
EDIT: Oh and on "Dark Knight Tower", the set name is 7947 Prison Tower Rescue (So far!). The box is still a preliminary image though meaning, it could be "Dark Knight Tower", but not likely (Prove me wrong )
But weren't crownies made up by fans (for the most part)? Fans just took the thing that was all over their armor and turned it into the name. Maybe that will happen with these two new ones. Lionknights V2? Dragon Masters V2?
I wonder how long it'll be before our new Lion guys or Dragon guys have their own nickname like "Crownies". The Lion guys clearly have a King, and the maiden might well be a Princess ... the Dragon guys have their Green Wizard, who doesn't look "super evil" like the Skeleton Wizard was, but doesn't exactly look like a friendly wizard.
Comparisons between Fantasy Era come to mind. Is it a Good Kingdom and an Evil Wizard? Or is it more like 94/95, where the Wizard was just an odd eccentric who wrangled Dragons and had his own private militia?
Yeah, yeah ... I know, I know ... "It's whatever I want it to be".
