I couldn't agree with you more Jon. We castle fans don't need any fancy new pieces to make us happy; just a reappearance of castle sets. Those modular sets you're created are exactly the kind of thing I want LEGO to bring back to the market. I've (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle)

I love this stuff. In my wildest dreams Lego would pick up on this. Perhaps when the HP license runs out. I think the design is perfect. Reminds me of the old 80's castle lego made. The blacksmith shop, the seige tower, the guarded inn, stuff that (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle)

Jon, this is lovely, and you've set yourself a hard problem. The thing that seems not quite in theme about it is the monochrome colors. Most Lego castles have a spot of color, a red, black, or blue roof. It keeps the minifigs smiling. -Erik (...) (22 years ago, 22-Jan-03, to lugnet.castle)
