Is there a proper name for this "teutonic" style great helm??
Keeping this relevant to lugnet.lego: once Space/Town/Model Team are taken
care of in the Legends line...
My 10375 (2002 mix)
Castle architecture is unchanged (unless it's expanded...)
Tan replaces yellow (bricks)
Black replaces red (fittings)
Brown replaces green (baseplates)
Keep the tabards (thankyou women's soccer!), but let's have them in a couple
of colours
Keep the four knights & squires
Keep the heraldry
Okay to use modern horses, though oldschool would be nice (make one brown)
Definitely okay to update the knights with breastplates and the funky new
helmet design
Maybe someone with the Harry Potter sets could work up a draft of this;
looks to be a good source for tan bricks and arches. Or a virtual version?
