Now, I might be jump-starting my customization career, but cutting a horse up
is a bit too much for me...

Any suggestions?

(...) You could build a horse as in the Yellow Castle set, and replace the head with a minifig torso. --Bram Bram Lambrecht / o o \ BramL@juno.com ---...---oooo-----(_...o---...--- WWW: (URL) (25 years ago, 11-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Tim is a mythical creature? Half-man, half-ABS maybe? :) DaveE (25 years ago, 11-Feb-00, to lugnet.castle)
