King Leo's Castle no longer available from Shop @ Home....at least it is no
longer present.


Now let us have a moment of prayer that Jack Stone doesn't have any castles
in his future...

Let's have a moment of concerted wishing that TLG's new castle theme line
follows on the two most recent releases..."The Guarded Inn" & "The
Blacksmith's Shop"  ;)  Of course I would REALLY like to see bulk packs of
the sloped wall elements from the Ninja theme as well as the stone wall
elements from the HP theme.

Actually, guarded inn is a re-release, and blacksmith shop is a new (Lego)
release that was designed by a non-lego designer (master builder)....

(which proves that lego should be more widely available and less expensive!!!)

I don't think Lego will put out anything "new" as far as a line goes.
I think they are "stuck" with the HP license for at least 2 years.
But, the good news is that "classic", "legend", and "my own creation" could
see a good number of sets now, and in the next few years ahead.
As far as "purists" go, I think it will be even better than we can hope for.

Personally, I didn't see Blacksmith shop coming.....

Let's hope Legends gets the Yellow Castle, and King's Castle.
Classic reintroduction, 6060 Knight's Tournament, and 6081?? (King's
Mountain Fortress), and maybe a decision to put King Leo back into
production....and a few thousand more defense archers...for good figs and
lots of luscious weapons....ummm...yum!!!

(and agree to pray for Jack Stone's Ultimate Demise!!!!)
