(...) Ohhhhhh, and I was going to leap all over that one, too! (...) Do you barbeque misteaks? Perhaps it is a Humpty-Dumpty portmanteau of mesquite smoked steaks? Please cite all references and use only original sources. :-) Bruce (23 years ago, 14-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) You're looking at building a cog, developed on the Hansard coast in the 13th-14th centuries, or a nef, which wasn't a double-ended ship and had a modern rudder. Other purely European ships had some provision for oars. It's worth noting that (...) (23 years ago, 14-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I just assumed that they custom made that piece for this specific skit - ala custom making the shields and cutting off the wings from the Batlords' helmets. The mace used in drumming would also be a custom piece. I would be overjoyed if they (...) (23 years ago, 14-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)

(URL) O.K. WoW… I Love stuff like this!!! Thanks Mr. Marchetti for the sneak-peek. But is it a possibility that this element has been solely created for this movie? (((lets hope not))) And regards to the helmet itself… it appears as though the (...) (23 years ago, 14-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.dear-lego)
