Although I find the 6074 (Black Falcon's Fortress) (URL) be the superior Castle model I'm still gonna vote for the classic 6075 (Yellow Castle) (URL) Why you ask? ¯¯¯...¯¯¯ -Well the original does (...)

You can disagree, you are entitled to your opinion, as am I. And I don't like it. I feel it's just too big. (...) (22 years ago, 12-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | Has anyone from Lego said what the new helmet for 6075 would be? I've browsed through what Jake said but didn't see anything. The only attraction to the 6075 castle for me is the minifigs and gear. If they will not have the same helmets and other (...) (22 years ago, 12-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)

Plus the armor is cool, and the description doesn't say anything about changing (...) (22 years ago, 12-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | | (...) Has anyone even stopped and considered that by saying 'modern-day LEGO helmets' that they weren't talking about the visored helms we castle heads are familiar with? You all MUST know that the helm base, the "HELMET" part of the visored helm is (...) (22 years ago, 12-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)

Small point of contention here (and I am reminded of the recent assertion that the new cypress trees were somehow defective or made of cheaper plastic -- which likewise proved false), but the old style "classic" helmet was of two distinct (...)

I highly doubt, however, that the phrase 'looking like modern day helmets' in the 375 rerelease (...) (22 years ago, 12-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)

| | | | | | | | (...) O, I totally agree. My only purpose in the previous post was to defend the design of the classic helmet -- I do not believe that it is unusually susceptible to damage, I have many classic space sets and some castle figures with both types of (...)

| | | | | | | | (...) I got a few of those visors myself, and I have yet to see any damage occur on them. But, I think a newer version of the helmet would look pretty cool. I was hoping in part that the newer version of the visor would be in part like the custom (...) (22 years ago, 12-Apr-02, to lugnet.castle)
