I had some futuristic Black Falcons that wore those black captain's hats
(really don't know what to call them [it's too late for a coherent though
right now], the police used them a lot though) and they were specific guys
with specific backgrounds. They were decended from the Black Falcon Knights
and were all "knightly" and what not but they drove transformer type cars...
ahh... I loved being a kid...
> 2. Of your current characters, which did you build first? Last?
Halcyon came first from this new batch of characters (surprisingly enough,
he's also a Black Falcon), and I think the Regent of my Mushroom village was
the last to be made so far.
> 3. Do you have clear “good” and “bad” characters, or is it all relative?
Clear cut good and bad guys with a few shady gray guys for good measure.
> 4. Have you ever built a MOC specifically for a pre-existing character?
Yeah, I built an airship for Captain Heinz and named it "The Old 57" (a play
on the steak sauce product).

um... it's hard to say, but I'll go with "a bunch" =)

1. Black Falcons, 2. Ninjas, 3. Dark Forest, 4. Wolfpack
> 7. Is there a type of fig you find easy to make? A type you find difficult?
They're all pretty easy too make, warriors are easiest, though, because
that's all LEGO really wants us to have it seems like. Bring back Peasants
and make them a subtheme!! =)
> 8. Have you ever bought a set just for the figs?
Certainly have =)

Res-Q.... *L*

It's easy for the characters you really are intent on making, but for the
other characters you have to have as filler, like "Bob the Butcher" or
"Ronald the Jester", it can be challenging if you're really not into it.

Here's a question...
If you don't need your Black Falcon mini-figs, would you kindly give them to
poor old me? =) hehe..
