(...) Ok, so you see I wasn't necessarily (or at all, in fact) responding to the alleged "skimpiness" of the new sets. Cool. Give me basic gray bricks, castle walls, and pitchforks and I'll be happy. I'd agree with anyone who felt that FK, DF, and (...) (25 years ago, 8-Nov-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)

(...) Not alot, really. It was the current theme when I came out of my Dark Ages, and I think it's the best of the last 4 subthemes. That doesn't mean it was as good as some of the earlier subthemes, but it was good. (25 years ago, 8-Nov-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)

(...) I didn't say there was anything wrong with it. I didn't even say that it was a pale imitation of glory-year sets. I said Thad -might- have felt that it was. Just speculation. Me, I'm a Space head, and I hate all Castle stuff anyway, except for (...) (25 years ago, 8-Nov-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)

(...) Well, see, that's your opinion, and that's fine. But when other opinions differ, that doesn't make someone a doofus, right? Whenever I find myself going "oh gawd" about anyone who's excited by UFO, Exploriens, or Insectoids, I remind myself (...) (25 years ago, 8-Nov-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)

(...) It would appear that way, at least partially. He may also be comparing it only to the mid- to late-90's Castle sets and not to the glory days mid-80's sets...? (...)

All I want is pics of the new sets! That would make me happy. :-) Just to see whats useful for parts as for sets, I dont think A Empire can ever reclaim the glory they once held. I fear the glory days of lego are over...... But the good news is they (...) (25 years ago, 9-Nov-99, to lugnet.castle)

First of all thanks for the photo Kevin! :-) Second the sets stick just like I thought..... But there is a new prefab piece for brefab castle builders and the new helmet is in small sets too. More horse bardards and plenty of brown wheels and more (...) (25 years ago, 9-Nov-99, to lugnet.castle)
