  Lord of the Rings/Toy Fair info.
 
I just read this over on IGN and thought I'd let people know here. Copied from the article "Lord of the Rings will be a major part of this year's Playmates line. Building upon the interactive voice chip technology used in their very successful (...) (24 years ago, 14-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Here are some pics of an elephant I made a while back (it was at brickfest). I'm not totally happy with the size. It seems like it should be bigger, but I'm not sure how big an elephant actually is. (URL) Nelson Jr. (24 years ago, 14-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Lord of the Rings/Toy Fair info.
 
I guess this means that Playmates is getting into the clone bricks business. Their license must include 'construction' toys as well as action figures. Too bad we won't be seeing any TLC LotR sets, though if these are cool enough I won't mind (...) (24 years ago, 14-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I'm (...) not (...) I like the elephant, Marc, but I can see how you might think it's a little too small. Not that i'm an expert or anything, perhaps one or two longer and a brick taller, or maybe shorten the legs and add the height to the (...) (24 years ago, 14-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Add a brick to the torso thickness. African elephants have long legs, so the legs are fine. How about some tusks ? Maybe the 1 x 2 plate with side thingies in white. Nice job so far though. (24 years ago, 15-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Where did you get the corner walls in the yellow tudor design? I don't seem to recall any in castle sets...are they MOC? -- Richard (24 years ago, 15-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I cheated. when buying buckets of lego down boot sales I got lots of pirate stuff. ( I do kinda collect pirate stuff, but not so much) bit of masking tape, some car bumper back to black aerosol spray ~ viola. The good thing is it dosent matter (...)

  Re: Guarded Inn
 
(...) I figured. I think some large-ish "Hydro something or other" set has some of these yellow corner walls too -- just without the tudor wall lines, of course. You know, and I hate to keep plugging this stupid page, but you can score a printable (...) (24 years ago, 15-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)
