  Knights' Kingdom figures
 
Here a couple of pics showing the parts in the KK figures: (URL) the figure itself (URL) I have put to good use, guarding the stock of light grey parts :-) Huw (21 years ago, 19-Dec-03, to lugnet.castle)  
 
  Re: Knights' Kingdom figures
 
(...) Wow! Those parts are a lot less useless looking than they first appeared. Sure, the head, torso, and shield are awfully single-use, but all those hinge parts could prove quite useful indeed. It's nice to see they're not all single pieces like (...) (21 years ago, 19-Dec-03, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Knights' Kingdom figures
 
(...) Huh? I'm not comprehending "all single pieces like Galidor". Each individual piece is a single piece, but that's somewhat tautological. (21 years ago, 19-Dec-03, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Knights' Kingdom figures
 
(...) I agree with Adrian somewhat. I'll be first in line to criticize Galidor and second in line for Bionicle specialty parts (like the masks) but these seem to be half decent. I don't like all the new molds they had to make to put out these parts, (...) (21 years ago, 19-Dec-03, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Knights' Kingdom figures
 
SNIP (...) I've been thinking about this for awhile. It seems that in the last few years, the number of new molds per year that TLC creates has been consistently rising. For example, for 2004 it looks like they have pretty much phased out most of (...) (21 years ago, 20-Dec-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.general)

(...) Replace "single piece" with "big ugly piece of crap useless pieces" :) Adrian (21 years ago, 20-Dec-03, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Knights' Kingdom figures
 
(...) Snip! You bring up a lot of good points, Douglas. Although others have asked me "Don't you have enough LEGO?" before, I never gave that question a serious thought until now. It's because a) there's a cool new set, or b) like you said, I don't (...) (21 years ago, 20-Dec-03, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.general)

(...) I bet the Mecha builders are already drooling over (...) As a mecha builder, i can say my mouth is indeed quite saliva-less :) Sure the new parts might be great for making strong and compact joints, but that takes the fun (and skill) out of (...)

(...) My bet: I'll give it five months before I see it next to the Galidor sets at 75% off in Toys R Us. :P (21 years ago, 20-Dec-03, to lugnet.castle)

  Re: Knights' Kingdom figures
 
Hello! (...) If TLC still made "friendly" sets they would need tons of (cypress) trees. They used to add one or more trees to almost every building (houses, police departments, gas stations) in the old days. Those many trees (and flowers) made the (...)

(...) Why should the new joints do that any more than any other of the joints that have been released over the years? I for one am looking forward to getting my hands on some of those new joints, but I reject the assumption that any use I might put (...)

Well first, i am DEFINATELY not a master of mecha, in fact, i am quite far from it :) Your post has humbled me, it might just be my frustration in only being able to use technic ball joints and slizer arm joints in my mocs that has caused my (...)
