That's right not steampunk, not fantasy and not science fiction. It's not retro-future because it's from a past that never happened and on worlds with magic and goblins, pirates, space-aliens and super intelligent lizard people! It's John Carter on (...)

(...) Thanks for the info! I had hoped this would be the case. I personally think the Dwarves and Trolls are a great addition to the Castle line and was disappointed when I missed picking up a set during the short release. S@H still shows them (...) (16 years ago, 5-Mar-08, to lugnet.castle)

Greetings, Does anyone happen to know if or when we might see the Dwarves and Trolls sets available in the US? S@H indicates they are not available in this country. I know the Dwarves mine was a limited release but I sure didn't expect it to be that (...) (16 years ago, 3-Mar-08, to lugnet.castle)

These were built for the upcoming March 2008 "Around the World in 80 Days" themed TexLUG display. I think I did a pretty decent job, considering I'm working with inventory scraps and leftovers.

Hi, It's not precisely a castle, it's not really adventurers, so wasn't sure where to post...sorry. Advice on that welcome by email. The empire of Brickistan, ruled by the cruel Timurlego, is guarded by the Brickistan gateway fort...my somewhat (...) (16 years ago, 12-Feb-08, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.castle)

Hello! That's a nice way to present your sets. Usually you just see them displayed in showcases or display-staircases or the like. That way the sets are hardly relating to each other. You however show a real Castle world. I like that. Bye Jojo (17 years ago, 22-Dec-07, to lugnet.events, lugnet.castle, lugnet.space)

(...) I like the looks of the Impulse sets...esp. the Town and Space! related ones! It should lead to a lot of people buying (many) more than 2 of each set.
