I was playing around with my 'figs this past weekend... made three kinda cool
looking unique Wizards:
BLUE WIZARD - Blue legs & waist, blue tunic w/ pouch (Majisto's torso), blue
arms, yellow hands, blue Wizard hat, and Ice Planet Granddaddy's head
GREEN WIZARD - Green legs & waist, green tunic w/ pouch (Forestmen), green
arms, yellow hands, green Wizard hat (Thanks Dan!), old Obi-Wan's head
BLACK WIZARD - Black legs & waist, black robes (Darth Maul), black arms, yellow
hands (black works too), black Wizard hat, King Leo's head
Thanks to the new castle sets and Star Wars sets, we now have a bunch of
'old-man-looking' heads! I tried them with the oversized white beard piece, but
I think it just looks a bit too farcical for my tastes....

I did something slightly similar for my potion/drug store in my market.

I think the Darth Maul or even the new Luke torso from the Skiff set work great
as Wizard/Magicians. I even created a Priest/Minister for my church using
Maul's torso.

I just love using the SW torso's for my medieval folk. There is actually a
good variety of torso's and now even more with the new SW sets (Mostly the two
figs from the Skiff Han & Luke).
From Memory these SW figs make great Castle town folk:
Darth Maul (Black Hood)
Desert Luke
Old Obi Wan (Gray Hair)
Young Obi Wan (Brown Hood)
Qui Gon Ginn (Long Man's Hair)
Padme (If there is a better hair piece out there let me know)
Skiff Luke
Skiff Han
Jar Jar Bink's (Just the torso and legs of course)
Gungan Soldier
Flash Speeder Driver (Brown Hands for leather gloves)
I think the Obi Wan and Qui Gon torso's are the same but they are still great.
Plus don't forget all the Black and Brown capes that come with those figs too.
I don't think LEGO could include this many peasants in this variety in the
Castle theme if they tried. IMHO the SW sets are hands down the best sets on
the market at the present time. Both in set quality and selection of parts.
It would be increadible if LEGO would use the same tactics in designing even
one other theme. I understand the need for some Juniorization but a little
more high quality stuff like the SW sets would be great.

Not only that, but they come in cheap sets! You can buy a skiff, the lightsaber
duel, the landspeeder, and the Gungan Swamp for all under $10, I think... Now
all they need to do is offer a padme fig (or at least the hair) in a cheap set!

--I still have yet to find another upper torso that works with desert Luke's
printed legs... I figure it's got to be a white tunic/robe torso... the one
that's there works well, although you have to pretend not to notice the little
gizmos on his belt (although they could be anything, I suppose)

Is this the first time that brown hands have been offered? I can't think of
another set that had them....

Unfortunately, yes! I WISH other themes had the same quality designs and peice
selection that Star Wars has... Although I suppose it's good in a way... It
keeps me from buying Town Jr!

Is it any wonder why the SW stuff is fleeing the shelves and not some of the
other stuff they've been turning out? Hydronauts, Stingrays, Town Jr, the
Amazon Adventurers, Insectoids, and Wild West stuff just sits there on the
shelf at most toy stores I've seen... SW sets just fly off! (Although granted
it's mainly the classic SW stuff that seems to sell well... the Episode I stuff
I still see a lot more of than the classic stuff)

It just hit me that this torso might make a great green wizard! Any Thoughts?

I believe that this is the first time Brown Hands are available. Could Brown
heads be next?.... I think not :-(

And there's the problem. IMO TLC may just assume that these sets fly off the
shelves because they are Star Wars and not because they are great sets. I hope
I am wrong. I actually posted a message to this effect a little while ago in
lugnet.dear-lego:
http://www.lugnet.com/dear-lego/?n=1137
Another problem is what you said about the Classic sets selling better that the
EP1 sets. In general the Classic Star Wars fans tend to be older and tend to
have more money and this (I fear) may lead to a misperception that the sets
sell well because of the name not the set quality. I personally can't say that
I have every bought more duplicates of a set then the I have with the SW sets
and except for the first sets I bought all the Duplicates were for parts and
not for the models. I just hope TLC realizes that this is the case with many
of us.

Well, I have yet to get one, but the torso actually strikes me as a rather elaborate
and stylish leather armor. I wouldn't mind having lots of them, but I Don't. Need.
Any. More. Jar-Jars. Why couldn't we have gotten two Gungan warriors with
this set?
Waah! (OK, whine over.)
Anyway, like I said, it looks more like armor to me, so I plan to possibly
swap the
arms, put a human head and helmet on, and make it a Mercenary captain or
adventurer
or something.
By the way - is that shield purple or trans-purple? The box has it sort of
glowing
but I'm sure that's an 'added effect'. (They really missed the boat if they
didn't
make it transparent, as far as I'm concerned...)

Hmm, probably want to change at least the hands, maybe the arms also
to make an "authentic" looking wizard (that's besides the head of
course) Ohh must not forget the hat! :^)

The shield is a solid purple. The added effect is most likely in my
opinion to be from shining a black light on it, I know it makes the
various translucent parts shine but have not tried any solid colors
really. My suspicion is that the translucent plastic is more brittle
and for the fairly stressed use is much a small shape they wanted a
more resilient "regular" style of plastic, but that's just MY guess.
As someone else in this thread mentioned I *REALLY* like the Star Wars
theme for the mini-figs, they have a wide selection of torso's that
can be used in MANY themes with just a bit of swapping of parts. I
have bought some extra sets just foe the minifigs, the other parts are
just "extra", I'll take them, use etc, but the main reason I bought
the extras is for the minifigs.

Dave,
Cool figures! I also messed around a little bit, and here is what I came up
with:
http://members.xoom.com/_XMCM/verneer/magic.jpg (you might have to copy and
paste - this is an old picture and I should have a better one up soon once my
new page is displayable).
It's VERY similiar to yours, but the heads are a bit different.
For the blue one I used an Ice-Planet head - old school eyebrows. The green one
has an Indian head - gives him the forest look that I needed. The Black one -
the evil one - has a Stingray head - with the read eyes I think. Everything
else is the same though.
So the question comes ... should there be only three wizards that control three
kinds of magic (healing - green, defensive - blue, attacking - black), or should
there be more ... ? And what about apprentices?

Hmm... I actually thought of the 3 wizards I have as all being good wizards,
with a bunch of evil wizards being 3 matching Darth Maul 'figs with evil heads
(I think I used two of the Bull's heads on these, but I forget what I used for
the 3rd... I tried to find evil-looking but still human-ish heads...

Maybe someone's already pointed this out, but _I_ sure never saw it (so I'm
forwarding it off to lugnet.general and lugnet.starwars)! This site is
incredible! A lego MF, Mos Eisley, AT-AT, Star Destroyer, etc, etc, etc! I
didn't look all the way through, but it looks like he's got all three movies
set up scene by scene in Lego! Amazing!

Cool! I have many magic users in my land, with five distinct types:
Blue Mages - 6 - Mostly Standard Majisto fare, but I have two or three
without beards. They are general purpose spellcasters, but they only have
access to attack and defense magic. I'm not sure whose side they will be on
yet.
Green Mages - 2 - Very similar to the Blue Mages in appearance, they side with
the Rangers during conflicts. They specialize in nature spells, but they can
cast many attack and defense spells, too.
Black Mage (The Necromancer) - 1 - Currently the only one of his kind, he has
plans on recruiting many more (considering I have 13 black wizard caps, with
more on the way). He is a creator and controller of undead, and wears Darth
Maul's robes, with a black wizard's hat and a beard. He specializes in attack
and necromantic magic.
Liches - 2 - These Undead were once living spellcasters who refuse to accept
their deaths. They look exactly like Darth Maul, but with Mummy heads instead.
They use necromantic, attack, and defense magic. They follow the Necromancer.
Druid - 1 - This Nature Priest is a master of the wilderness. He has Young
Obi-wan's Cowl, a brown cloth cape, and a Dark Forest torso (the one with the
gear). He is a master of nature and defense magic, and is adept at summoning
elementals. He has limited access to general attack spells, though.
I also have a large number of Special 'figs, such as Knights, Maidens, Guard
Captains, and Faction Leaders. I'll try to get some good pictures or scans of
them soon.
I'm also planning on creating spell effects out of bricks, which I'll post as
soon as I can.

Try using a bandana. I have a red one on a bearded samurai head. His torso is
the batlords. The bandanas come in blue, red, black and green, if you're lucky
enough to have one :) (I am)

Pretty much exactly the recipe I used, except I *did* use the beard & classic
smiley combo.
I also created a magic staff for each, using the grey 'lightsaber blade' element
from Naboo Swamp, a lightsaber handle, and a gem of appropriate color set into
the other end of the handle. (I used a ruby for the black wizard, lacking a
trans-smoke gem) And I must say, the green wizard is very happy to get a trans-
green gem instead of the trans-yellow/green one he had been using.
The black wizard just keeps muttering and fondling that silver dagger of his.
I'm not sure I trust him...

Hey cool! I never thought of doing that! Those of mine with Staves are
basically using lances (which is still pretty cool). I may have to borrow this
idea. :)
Hmmm... Actually, removing the bar would create a very cool looking enchanted
mace... Now if only I had some white cowls and cloth capes, I could make some
clerics!

Is the hilt capped with a ruby? ;)
