| Jason, THanks for the awesome encouragement, unfortuantely I don't think our social lives are in any type of danger! But here's to spending some quality time in a cave (our own separate ones of course!) Jon (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates)

| Bruce, thanks again for the compliments, It’s hard waiting for those pictures to clear the brickshelf censor isn’t it! Those swords are definately wedged in there, I'm gonna have to pull them out to avoid cutlass bendage as well. I agree (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates)

| Richard, I don’t know if it’s been done, but I’d love to see someone do some terrain for this idea( I’m no good at terrain). It would be awesome to see these fully compatible sets. Especially for a battle sequence! Jon (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates)

| Richie, Thanks for your comments, I appreciate your post a lot. The sausage machine was my favorite part of this entire process! (The guy operating it looks like Ronald Mcdonald too!) Jon (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates)

| JoJo, I’m afraid you are right, those pirate soldier uniforms are out of place in the time period, I was trying to find some way of making a musketeer’s dress uniform (which is harder than I thought!) Thanks for keeping it honest! Jon Furman (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates)

| Shirley thanks for your unbridled enthusiasm! Unfortunately I didn’t keep a record of the building process, (even if I did, I don’t think I would charge the average builder) but there should be enough photos of each to get you started in the (...)

| Ben, Thanks for your compliments, I think the roof Idea is great as well, the only reason that I didn't go that direction originally is because a lot of the structural integrity of the buildings is focused on the roof. The roof bricks are literally (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates)

| Jon, I love your sets. The small details are great and you have captured this time period well. It would be really cool to see a street full of musketeers dueling with the cardinals men. On the opening roof of the butcher's shop you could use two (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates)

|
| John, First, lemme just say that these are some of the finest structured MOCs I've seen in a long time. The architecture and overall "feel" of each piece is just splendid. Second, if Lego ever produced such models I'd probably devote my life savings (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates)

| Jon, I saw this when it went up but wanted to wait for your announcement to avoid thunder-theft. It was hard, though, because this MOC is so cool I could hardly contain myself. Outstanding design all around. If this was a theme from TLC I would buy (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates)

| (...) Hi Jon, Following that train-of-thought, y’know what would be kinda kewl? A battle field scenario… a small stand-off upon a brick terrain. There could be three sets or so, and each terrain piece could be modular. Has this been done? I know (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates)

I was fortunate enough to be living in the area at the time and spent more than my (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.disney, lugnet.castle)

If I aimed to find a fault I'd say that the blue soldiers in front of the Public House (...) (22 years ago, 5-Feb-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.pirates)
