(...) Start with the minifig ... go with the theme;) Verneer has both a space and a castle version, and whatever is necessary for him becomes "in" for the time. (Castle or Space). I am too much of a minifig person though, so I am very biased;) -- pn (24 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Yes, and it is quite normal. I tend to shift themes about 3-4 times a year. :) I will start making Town stuff, then head over to Castle, then take a brief dip in the Space pool, etc. :) Jeff, "Thallid Lord" ICQ #66153738 (URL) (24 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)
