I wonder how much they will charge, should the 375 win. All those solid
bricks, plus 14 minifigs, it could get a little pricey. Maybe double the
price of the New Blacksmith's Shop.
The compromises you spoke of, presumably, would be one or more of the following:
Printed bricks instead of stickers (maybe not such a bad thing?);
Modern red 1x1 bricks with a perp. stud, unlike the hollow back original red
window pieces;
Hollow stud heads on minifigs;
New-type light grey swords like the ones on the Gryffndor statues from
Hogwart's castle;
And finally, on the cavalry guys, presumably new style visors and helmets.
Possibly Euro-armor, but not certain. It would be kind of cool to get a the
pointed castle visor in two new colors--red and white.
I have always wanted another Yellow castle, and I think I could probably
live with those changes, depending on how much they decided to sell it for.
On the other hand, the BFF would practically be identical to the original.
I have over 150 Falcon guys, but there is always room for more!
