Okay..I guess I have to get in on this after putting it off for a few weeks
now.. I mailed Craig a while back inquiring about CW (a few months) and
haven't done any Castle building but I've started working on figs. A few
Next few months... really...

Howdy all .castle folk.  Now that Lugnet is running as usual again, it's time
to do something that's been absent for a few months.  At Shiri's behest, I'm
gonna take a survey.  My first one, so bear with me.  OK, let's get started,
shall we?

1.  What is your age?

27

2.  What castle subtheme do you like most?

Forestmen

3.  Are you a member of Castle World?  (if not, what are you waiting for?!)

N'yet - my wife wants me to help her build a story though. (soon.. HOW soon?)

4.  What's your favorite castle set? (both that you own and not)

6067 Guarded Inn (Owned)
6086 (kings mountain fortress? I forget the name) (unowned)
I love the Bavarian wall pieces and didn't look at 6086 in the store close
enough to realize it had 2 in yellow.. *rassin' frassin' double rassin'...*

5.  What's your favorite non-castle set?

Bah. just one? Owned would be 483 - Alpha 1 Rocket base 'cause it was the
first "Legoland" set I ever got as a kid.

Main Street and the Public Works Center sets of the early 80's still have to
be two high fav's on my list that I never was able to get.

6.  What was your first castle set?

6022 - whatever the name is..little armor cart with 2 guys and a "real" horse!

7.  What % of your collection is from castle sets? (rough estimate)

40% - thanks to Adventurers and Starwars...used to be 60%.. :) *8|

8.  What's your favorite minifig (castle or otherwise; MOC)

I can't pick just one..four maybe?

standard non Castle: Chewbacca! (What a wookie! Brrrwaaarr!)

Castle: Princess Storm -- she has red hair - I can't help myself...
        Red Scale mail armored guards from Black Monarch's Castle.
        Perfect Royal guards!

Custom: Female RR head, open faced dark grey RR helmet with Blacktron black
visor on Blacktron body and UFO Dark Grey shoulder armor with dk grey hands.

(She's the pilot of my impending MOC Space themed fighter *crosses fingers for
the final completion to be stable and as flimsey as construction* It looked so
good on paper...)

9.  What's the largest/coolest/most intricate castle MOC you've ever built?

Combination/Variation of Black Monarch's and Black Falcon's castles meets
Royal Knights 6090 with the Guarded Inn and armor shop thrown in vs the Elves
(Forestmen).

It sounds better in words than it probably was but it was great at the time!
Nothing like the full blown MOC's of CW and others here. I've much to aspire
to!

and...
10. Have you ever customized a figure for castle purposes? (other than just
   swapping arms and the like)

Well... removing that pesky mic from a RR girl is about it.... weapons a few
times.. but no painting/cutting on my Lego in general.
