Castle lovers,

Like you, I am hoping that the lack of a new castle theme in 2001 doesn't
mean the end of the castle theme for good.

On that note, what new elements would you like to see in any upcoming castle
themes?

The Pikeman's helm (most likely a Cabaset) included in the Knights Kingdom
theme was a breath of fresh air but can we get some ordinary GREAT HELMS
please? Perhaps with a side order of a euro-style Sallet helms?

Also, can I ask for leg pieces with a 'tunic' design painted on them, or
better yet, a tunic accessory (like the cape, but would attach to the 2 leg
pegs). I've attempted to make my own design (canvas material)here:

Can we get some grey/Palomino horses?
Perhaps a different type of crown for our royal minifigs?


What else?

(...) I would typify the helmet as a Kettle Hat rather than the deeper-crowned Cabasset (which transitioned into the Spanish Morion and then the Comb Morion which Lego already has). I would love to see a proper sallet rather than the pseudo-sallet (...) (24 years ago, 7-Dec-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I agree with nearly everything here, except the crown. As a proud owner of a sackfull of useless crowns, if LEGO were to mold any more (before a five year return) I'd have to eat my hat (HA!). I'd go batty. I've been dreaming of great helms (...) (24 years ago, 7-Dec-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Helmets are a great idea, but we need something new… like sword holders!!! Either to be mounted on the backs of the minifigure (like the quivers for the arrows.) or, preferably on the waist (that would attach to the two waist studs.) And with (...) (24 years ago, 7-Dec-00, to lugnet.castle)

I apologize if this group has already discussed this but I thought I poke my head over here or a sec to mention these little bioncile sets: (URL) seems like they come with weapons that might be of interest to castle fans. The sets I'm talking about (...) (24 years ago, 8-Dec-00, to lugnet.castle)
