Spacey-Castle, wave of the future

Post by Bruce N H »

It's time to stop living in the past. Nexo Knights, Ninjago, the writing is on the wall. Let's face the futue and change up this site to focus on Spastle - Space/Castle mashups. For examples look to[url=http://classic-castle.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=26202]this spastle MOC thread[/url], various [url=http://classic-castle.com/forum/viewtopic.p ... 3&p=284723]Nexo[/url] [url=http://classic-castle.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=26383]MOCs[/url], this [url=http://classic-castle.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=25300]seed part challenge[/url] or our [url=http://classic-castle.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=26149]Castle Goes to Space contest[/url] from a few years ago. Please bear with us as it will take a few weeks to change over the look of the site and replace all of the Classic-Castle content with Spacey equivalent material.

I think it all started with this set:

It will be interesting to see how everyone handles this transition/mashup. I think it is something you have to be careful with to pull off well, but like anything, it depends on your preference. I do hope we see more alien/fantacy race figures. Some space :orc: sets would be totally rad!

For those just discovering this, this was an April Fool's Day joke, FYI. :wink:
