Wow, for me this has become a thread that will not die. Here I present you with yet another variant MOC using the great battle droid elements as arms and legs idea, but this time centering on my obsession with insects. I give you the BattleBug: (...) (22 years ago, 10-May-02, to lugnet.castle)

Hi all, (...) I know we discussed this breifly before, and I think it sounds like a great idea if there is enough interest. Do we want to do a big castle, a walled town, (under siege perhaps) a castle with a village, or what? I think what we end up (...) (22 years ago, 10-May-02, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I think making a village would be most fun, and if we get a lot of people, it could become a town. Maybe 16x16 modules? It would be the most flexible. Jeff Castle Room Coordinator (22 years ago, 10-May-02, to lugnet.castle)

To get some more discussion going, I'd like to hear some feedback on "Large Scale Castle Building," a workshop I'd like to present. I would relate some of what I've learned while working on my own castle, including tips on building hills and raised (...) (22 years ago, 10-May-02, to lugnet.castle)

To anyone that might know, Why are sets like BFF and Kings Castle grouped with the Yellow Castle, Knights Procession, and Tournament, and called "Classic"? While I agree that they are all great sets, IMO only the latter three qualify as "Classic" (...) (22 years ago, 10-May-02, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I suspect they're classified that way because they aren't released under a specific subtheme, like some of the later sets, they are just under the general "Legoland Castle" group. I agree that some of them would thematically fit under (...) (22 years ago, 10-May-02, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I looked under the Lugnet database for Black Falcons, but I only came up to one result, that being the black falcon's fortress. Can anyone tell me what's up with this? Don't sets like King's Castle and Catapult also fit under this theme, if (...) (22 years ago, 10-May-02, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Lugnet categorizes based on the official subthemes. Since the Yellow Castle, King's Castle, Knight's Castle, and other early sets have no official subtheme, they fall under "classic." (...) See above. (...) Again, when the database was (...) (22 years ago, 10-May-02, to lugnet.castle)

(...) If you look deeper into it you actually find a LUGNET category named Black Falcons including just one set, the 6018 Battle Dragon released in 1990. I looked through the BrickShelf scan library from 1990 and this 6018 was the only model with a (...) (22 years ago, 11-May-02, to lugnet.castle)

(...) You raise a very interesting point. Some things I see looking at 1989, 1990, and 1991 catalogs: - Based on my 1991 US catalog, "Crusaders" should simply be "Castle" - Based on the 1989 EU catalog on Brickshelf, 6066 should be "Legoland Castle" (...)
