Welcome to “Ancient and Medieval” Keith. Two great tastes and all. (As long as
you are not making stuff up!)
I just love the long line of warriors. It makes me think of the absurdly long
line of caterers in The Last Emperor.
Somehow details of city life are not part of Lego’s themes. So it’s good to see
a variety of other structures made from the elements of the Ninja strongholds.
Elevation: nothing makes me more uneasy than a Lego hill or plateau consuming
all my bricks as it gets higher. I see you get mileage out of the big green base
bricks. Try that sometime I will. But also a scary number of green plates which
raise the level (no pun of course). Your paean to the water table is also noted.
I didn’t see the radar dishes on the army at first (plate heads?), so I think
you are underrating the benefits of the cargo dump to the civilian population,
who are now protected from acne and eczema and worse things.
Aren’t Michelob and Kirin are the same company these days?
I love the scene where the boatbuilders are working on the keel (“I’m not your
daddy” page)
Riki-tiki-tavi is not garbage culture.. we must bring back Kipling in our
schools.
This one really, really makes me wish I was somewhere in the Pacific:
All that light glare (how to make the water do that I wonder? tiles? nitric acid
vapor?)
It IS a great looking village.
This shtick, you just make that up to make us look at the pictures? I’m looking
for the snake but I don’t see any. I also checked for Darth Vader.
Are the round-eyes from Time Cruisers?

| Check this out... if you are not easily offended by my caption style of low-brow humor. I've already received complaints from one irate parent, and that is quite enough thank you. The MOC is a medieval Japanese fishing village that I posted once to (...) (21 years ago, 25-Jul-03, to lugnet.build.ancient)
