Okaaaaaay.....
8876- probably the best of the bunch. Nice
big scorpion. I am particularly taken by the swinging ladder-jail. An odd catapult on Jayko's horse and on the tower-thingy. This is just me, I think, but I
loathe sets with "actions" like trapdoors or catapults. But nice overall, and can I see dark red corners?
8/10.
8875- ugly. Seems like a re-hash of Vladek's siege tower, which I didn't like. Of note is the black boulder (dappled?) and the triangle shield. The new shields are so... chunky...
6/10
8874- I really don't mind this, actually. The catapult will be removed and promptly lost in my big tub 'o' bricks. (deeeeep breath...) I like this like I like police sets with prisoner transports. Why, I don't know. But I DO like this.
8/10
88733- pleh. It's all gone a bit
oh-where-can we-use-all-these-leftover-bionicle-parts, hasn't it?
2/10
8877- a real mixed bag, this. I
HATE the amount of POOPs, those bionicle saws and the KK2 parts. The baseplate colour and the big slopes make it seem a bit too "Duplo Castle" for my liking. However, I
LOVE the chrome helmets and armour(I smell Romans...), and the fact you get all the knights.
6/10
OVERALL: 30/50- not bad. Better than last year's.
