  Re: Making Pikes
 
(...) be (...) Another possibility which just occured to me is to use those 'whip' antennae. Doesn't the Desert Skiff come with a couple in brown? One of them would look a bit goofy, but a forest of them would be cool. James (24 years ago, 28-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Making Pikes
 
(...) If it doesn't offend anyone's Lego purism, I would suggest 1/8" styrene rod stock, available at many hobby stores in 12" inch and/or 36" lengths. I've seen them in white, black, dark grey, as well as a few translucent hues, and they fit minfig (...) (24 years ago, 28-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Making Pikes
 
(...) Why not use a lance for the grip part, and attach a spear to the other end? If the minifig holds the lance "backwards", the handle would give ample opportunities for connecting bit to hold the spear. Done in the right way, it could even (...) (24 years ago, 28-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) be (...) That works for the Swiss, who were very agressive, though I don't think the Scots were that sophisticated. Good suggestion. (...) That's the way I currently have them (lightsabre blade, lightsabre handle, spear). I could horrify (...) (24 years ago, 28-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Making Pikes
 
(...) spear (...) Fake it. :) Have your minifigs standing sideways in the pikewall, so that the "pike" is angled down through both their hands. In the upper hand, have them holding a spear, with as much extension as they can get. In the back hand, (...) (24 years ago, 28-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Making Pikes
 
I need some pikes for my medieval/renaissance armies and I was wondering what solutions others have used, the standard spear being too short for a pike. I thought of shaving off the axe blade from the gray halberd, which leaves a longer spear, but (...) (24 years ago, 28-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle)

Heya ! Are these sets available in Munich yet ? If, so where in Munich can I find them ? Thanx. Rene (...) (24 years ago, 28-Aug-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle, lugnet.promo)
 
  Re: I'm back
 
(...) Now castle will once again claim it's rightful spot as the fastest growing topic on Lugnet with your posts! Sorry, I couldn't resist saying that. Welcome back Shiri! Rob (24 years ago, 27-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.people, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: Bulls Brothers Travelling Circus?
 
(...) Neat idea!! Love the creativity, Brandon... that would explain why they have no permanent home, too! Personally I agree about the bad-guy good-guy theory, and I know I'm not the only one. Let *us* interpret the figs however we want to. People (...) (24 years ago, 27-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Bulls Brothers Travelling Circus?
 
I don't like the way the newer castle sets are presented. The LEGO company loves telling us that some minifigures are good brave people, and others are evil robbers. Yes, the evil guys are always robbers, even though every castle set I've ever seen (...) (24 years ago, 27-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: I'm back
 
(...) Hey Mark, lemme clue you in. Castle has about twice as many posts as Space... nyah nyah ;-) (...) I vote for .fun... -Shiri p.s. Can someone invite lazy me to the BrickLUG chat again? I got a new AIM screen name... "lego shiri"... TIA! (24 years ago, 27-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.people, lugnet.general, lugnet.space, lugnet.fun)
 
  Re: I'm back
 
(...) <psst> Hey Shiri, Space! Space! Space! Space! Space! Just wanted to give you something to put in the proper topic. Now... does this XFUT to .space or .fun? :^D ~Mark (24 years ago, 27-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.people, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: I'm back
 
(...) <grin> First of all, thanks, it's nice to be missed! Secondly, why lurk?... when you can post and make it un-dull... c'mon, show some initiative around here ;-) -Shiri (24 years ago, 27-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.people, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: I'm back
 
(...) Hi Shiri, From a lurker's standpoint, let me say that I missed you! It's been a little dull since you've been away! I'm glad you're back and I look forward to reading your postings! Tom (24 years ago, 27-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.people, lugnet.general)
 
  Re: I'm back
 
(...) Yeah... I got all of mine (which "surprisingly" doesn't seem so big anymore...) and a little bit of my cousin's, including some rare-ish bits like BFs, some Crusaders and BKs, Blacktron and a few classic windows... didn't catch the fabuland (...)

  Re: I'm back
 
Welcome back! Were you able to obtain any more of your LEGO collection from back home? How is your jet lag? Brad (24 years ago, 27-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.people, lugnet.general)
 
  I'm back
 
Hi y'all! I'm back... it was a great, albeit long, vacation... reminded me what I missed back in .il, and what I should be grateful for over here. It *is* good to be back home... the computer, the lego, lugnet, I missed'em. ;-) (Oh, and my family (...) (24 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.people, lugnet.general)

(...) [4816-4819] The sets are in no way hard to find here. Anyone who pays three times as much on ebay as German AFOLs pay here must be either rich enough or stupid enough. I think it's easy to get the sets, so I'll sell them at US$6 or so, which (...) (24 years ago, 26-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
