  2002’s good for Castle!
 
^^^2002’s good for Castle!^^^ These pens have `wicked` potential for ‘Army-Building!’ (unless they’re some how *anchored-down?) That Jango Fett is gonna be bought in multiples!

  Re: 2002's good for Castle!
 
Which pens exactly do you think would be cool for castle? The picture I looked at had Darth Vader, Jango Fett, C3PO, R2-D2, a Clonetrooper, and a jedi I think.... The oval serpant shield looks awesome! But you only get 1 in a $10 set? The body armor (...) (22 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: 2002’s good for Castle!
 
Richard, You are right, the Serpent Sheild is awesome. Is that supposed to be the Slytherin Entrance to their dorm room? Also Crabbe, and goyle look great! I saw Madam Hooch. She was kewl! But they could have done better with the Quidditch Field. (...) (22 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.harrypotter)
 
  Re: 2002’s good for Castle!
 
(...) As far as the quidditch (practise) field...it isn't too bad, and it has enough elements to make it work, if you buy two of them, make the make shift stands, and use some kind of base for the "field". I think the "crabbe and goyle set" will be (...) (22 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.harrypotter)

  Re: 2002's good for Castle!
 
(...) i agree with you here. these brand new 2002 sets, although somewhat neat, leave me feeling destitute about the future of lego castle. I mean, the first ever lego minifig set was the yellow castle and now.. ugh, there's nothing. except Guarded (...) (22 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: 2002’s good for Castle!
 
(...) Since the Spiderman sets are based on the upcomig movie and not the comic, you'll want to direct your complaints there, rather than at Lego. Jeff (22 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.general, lugnet.mediawatch, lugnet.year.2002)

  Re: 2002’s good for Castle!

  Re: 2002’s good for Castle!
 
(...) I realize this, however TLC is responsibe for the Lego sets of the movie, therefore my complaints are directed correctly. I'm sure Sony Entertainment didn't say "Could you make Green Goblin's head three times the size of his body? Thanks." (...)

  Re: 2002’s good for Castle!
 
(...) It isn't "three times the size of his body." I'd say it is little more than 20% larger than a regular minifig head. I can't comment on how it looks compared to either the movie or the comic, since I have seen neither, nor do I plan to. (...)

  Re: 2002’s good for Castle!
 
(...) Okay, a little follow-up: A friend showed me a pic, and the minifig head looks like a pretty good representation of the character's head. Is it a bit wide? Sure, but minifigs THEMSELVES are a bit wide. Jeff (22 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.general, lugnet.mediawatch, lugnet.year.2002)
 
  Re: 2002’s good for Castle!
 
(...) It is a good representation, but wouldn't you rather have a minifig head, instead of this helmet thing? Don't get me wrong, though, I see some uses for it. I just think it looks a bit absurd, as well as the frankenstein's monster hat peice (...)

  Re: 2002’s good for Castle!
 
(...) Have you seen the Goblin from the movie? That IS what these sets are based on. My guess is it's removable (i.e. fits over a minifig head). Kevin (22 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.general, lugnet.mediawatch, lugnet.year.2002)
 
  Re: 2002's good for Castle!
 
(...) Don't get excited yet. Most of the pen parts released to date are not compatible compatible with System elements. From the pictures, most of these are definitely the existing, incompatible parts style (look at the stud on top of the square (...) (22 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: 2002’s good for Castle!
 
(...) Never mind. Somehow glanced past the other follow-ups. Personally, I don't mind the size, because I'm a sucker for removable helmets, and a sculpted head in the movie style wouldn't be very useful to me anyway (too mechanical-looking to pass (...)

(...) Depending on the price though, from the 2nd story up this set has some good parts. (grey windows, grey log bricks etc.) The fig's always move easily on ebay too. That printed on door is inexcusable though. Jonathan (22 years ago, 15-Feb-02, to lugnet.year.2002, lugnet.town)

  Re: 2002’s good for Castle!
 
(...) I'm fairly certain from the picture that the bank front is NOT a JS panel, but a endless-loop similar to the backdrop from the Studios helicopter set 1351. Still not terribly useful, but not really a 'brick' either. (22 years ago, 15-Feb-02, to lugnet.year.2002, lugnet.town)
 
  Re: 2002
 
(...) no, I don't think it's an endless loop.. it looks to me like a piece of cardboard, held up by the Jack Stone pieces with vertical slots. The vampire set has the same sort of thing. -- Tim Buchheim (22 years ago, 15-Feb-02, to lugnet.year.2002, lugnet.town)
