Well, it's as close to a fig-pack as LEGO has released in many a year, so it's a step in the right direction. I'll probably get this, but might not, given that it doesn't include any figs I don't already have and I'm not an army builder.

Yup, the only reason I'll buy multiples of 7020 is because of the figs. The main structure is decent. A hoard of them might look nice. I agree with the sentiment regarding the shields. Ah well.

Nice review, Jake!

I voted 'Nah' , mainly because of :

- dont like the viking helmets
- would have liked the smaller shields
- miss the new axesblades

Some nice things though:
- 7 cool torso's /legs/heads
- brown pieces
- goblets/diamonds
- The wheels are cool


One thing i keep on being amazed about though, is how much technic pieces are used in all the new sets from the last 2 years, this one is no exception.
On a sidenote, i think im going for the 7021, which has more cool pieces imho.

Thanks for the extensive review though, its always nice to see a set more upclose.
