  Re: Tower of Orthanc
 
Hi Aaron! (...) He spells it with one "t", methinks. <snip> (...) That's Chris Maddison. -Shiri (who can probably put a name to every single creation and person in that room - phew! Being room captain was exhausting.) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Tower of Orthanc
 
(...) Okay. (...) Thanks. I always like to try to put faces with names. (...) Room captain, were you? I guess you are the best person to address with questions regarding the Castle Room at Brickfest. Also you are the best person to correct small (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Factions
 
I think I will de-lurk for a moment and throw in my two cents worth. My "Crossed Axe" soldiers have always been mercenaries who have often been employed by the peasants to protect their interests or have allowed themselves to be hired by the Lions. (...)

  What was in 0016?
 
I'm trying to get an idea what pieces came in the 1978 Samsonite set 0016. I've included a highly speculative inventory using Peeron names and part numbers based on postings in Rec.Toys.Lego and here, but I was hoping there is someone out there that (...)

  Re: Factions
 
(...) Those are good thoughts, and play right in to the rules of Brikwars!! But they are inconsistent with the way the Crossed-Ax soldiers are portrayed in the Lego sets. Anytime you see a crossed ax soldier carrying a shield, it is a lion shield! (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Tower of Orthanc
 
Thanks! If you were where Gandalf stood you'd be 500 feet from the ground. My tower has 8 floors, and is about 100 "lego feet" tall. So my tower has a ways to go yet. I didn't use a scale. I just used what pieces I had for the base and went up from (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)

  Lego Legends
 
I am new the Lugnet world but a long time, die-hard lego fan. I recently saw in the newest issue of Mania Magazine an offer for the Lego Legend Guarded Inn. I thought this was original to this set, but, when briefly scanning different newsgroup (...) (23 years ago, 22-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Lego Legends
 
(...) The original announcements will probably answer most of your questions: (2 URLs) in Germany, where they are in some retail stores, the only source for these sets is LEGO Shop @ Home. The only castle set re-released so far is the Guarded Inn. (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Lego Legends
 
Keith, So far, there are three Legends sets: 10000 Guarded Inn, released earlier this month (re-issue of 6067) 10001 Metroliner, to be released next month (re-issue of 4558) 10002 Club Car, to be released next month (re-issue of 4547) Lego Legends (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  NEW MOCS: a chalet, a yellowish castle and a pirate boat
 
Hello everyone! I've uploaded some pictures I made of a few MOCS: - A chalet - A yellowish castle - A boat Since we will be moving in a few weeks, I thought it a clever idea to take the pictures before breaking the MOCS down in pieces. Now I have a (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Lego Legends
 
Just speculation, but I suspect Lego Legends to run the gamut through city and space before it returns to Castle again. I have no idea what space sets they would reproduce since they really have no space line going at this time. Life on Mars is off (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Lego Legends
 
(...) At the Brickfest Brad reported that it wouldn't be likely to see another castle-themed legend for another year or more. I forget his actual words though :( (...) Not sure they'll do any space-themed legends for the next few years, since either (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Lego Legends
 
Just came across this post in Space discussing the Star Wars deal TLC made: (URL) if TLC signed the same type of deal for Harry Potter as it did for Star Wars, then we may be looking at a long time without Castle. What, there are four HP books now? (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Lego Legends
 
(...) Personally, I really strongly doubt that this kind of agreement was signed for the Harry Potter License. Sure, HP is a "big deal", but it is still pretty small potatoes compared to the marketing giant that is Lucasfilm. Lucasfilm is a much (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Princess Storm and Richard the Strong
 
It may just be my imagination, but... is there something going on between Richard the Strong and Princess Storm? Just look at the way they are gazing into one another's eyes in the picture on the front of the box for King Leo's castle. Still have (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Factions
 
(...) Very true. I have generally ignored what the boxes "portray" myself. But what is the deal with the armoured inn then? Black Falcon Knight and crossed axe footsoldiers hanging out at an inn together in perfect harmony? (...) Haha, well the (...) (23 years ago, 26-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Princess Storm and Richard the Strong
 
(...) Hey As outlandish as that may sound...I think yuor right..the princess and Richard are looking at each other a little too much to be jsut friends. Someone at lego is not telling us something. Tirrell (23 years ago, 26-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
