   I suppose there are some nice touches in there, I was just (wrongly) holding out for models rather than playsets. The comic that comes with the figures shows the castle also with red trim rather than blue, so whether the set will come with the bricks to change the colour as well I dont know (means the collecters will buy 2 sets :) ) I’m sure people will be pleased that a small set (8777) contains 2 lots of armour and 2 new visors

looks like the little guy in 8778 is on a footballers rocking stand. I supose kids these days need help to get a minifig to push a boulder ;)

Nah, that’s not the case. Take a look at the bad guy on the other side, he’s standing on tiles. This looks like a neat little game, where you attempt to flick the boulder across the bridge and knock the bad guy off his platform. Having the good guy on the Soccer flipper makes it sort of like a shoot-and-score game.

As others have said, the new parts and colors are cool, but the set designs? Eh. I’m guessing there’s going to be some very large Black and Blue knight armies thanks to 8777 :)

Uh... I think that might be a violet knight in 8777. The one in 8780 definately appears to be violet compared to the blue in the structure. There is a light blue knight in 8779 so it would make more sense (from a color contrast standpoint) that the other knight would be violet rather than normal blue. Then again I am probabbly one of the few people that thinks getting Crimson and Violet knights is absolutly awesome. (Course I would probably using them for space troops so...)
  
Interesting stuff. Plus three shades of grey on the 8781 castle?

Does look that way. Most curious.

P.S. Red armor would be perfect for General Insanity.
