  Re: Calling all unwanted BURPs and LURPs
 
Hello! (...) Good luck! I think BURPs are not sold by LEGO in bulk. Maybe you can ask if they sell you any loose, but than you will have to pay $2.50/piece or so. And please consider: For building a big mountain you will need many many grey, dark (...) (23 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle)

  Re: Arrow Slits
 
I was messing around with some lego over the weekend and came up with a very simple vertical arrow slit for the use of the corner of a tower. Take two to four (depending on how long you want it to be) 1 by 1 round bricks, stack them on top of each (...) (23 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Help! I'm being overrun by minifigs!
 
I wish lego had done more with the Forestmen and especially the Wolf Pack factions. Think of all the possibilities of sets of various sizes, we coudl have had a; "Outlaw Raiding/Scouting Party" "Bandit Ambush", "Treetop Cottage", "Raider's Boat". (...) (23 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.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 (23 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.general, lugnet.mediawatch, lugnet.year.2002)

  Re: Vieille Garde
 
(...) Great MOC! I really like your building style, both Vieille Garde and Caèr Lwyrin have a realistic feeling to them. Less TV and more lego for you! :) /Elin (URL) (23 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle)

Hi all, After Caèr Lwyrin, here is Vieille Garde : (URL) a castle I made the last week 'cause there wasn't anything on TV ;-) I hope I can put my website online this month.

  Calling all unwanted BURPs and LURPs
 
Creating an actual LEGO mountain for the castle Paranor is something I've been planning on for some time now. I have recently felt the need to actually start this of late. Unfortunately, I am confronting a problem when taking this on. Namely, the (...) (23 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  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 (...) (23 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.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 (...) (23 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.harrypotter)

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 (...) (23 years ago, 11-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle)

  Olde Castle Visors!
 
Hey, Castle heads! What's up? I recently got my hands on a very rare find, t a garage sale and I was wondering how much this would be worth. These are some visors from the 6075 yellow castle.

  A knight to remember
 
Added a few pages to the story. My computer is on the fritz this evening, and it's not letting me save the text in anything but starwriter, so there are likely few that will be able to see it. I'll be fixing that though. (23 years ago, 10-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle)

  Re: Help! I'm being overrun by minifigs!
 
Yes, as both Aaron and Bruce said, these things are a matter of taste. Personally, I enjoy the Wolfpack because the sets provide a crest for a small but important faction in my story (named, appropriately, the Wolfpack...original, huh?)... But (...) (23 years ago, 8-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Help! I'm being overrun by minifigs!
