I don't make any "characters." I'm more interested in designing
buildings, and occasionally vehicles (wagons, etc.)
I populate my creations with minifigs, but none of them have ever had
names or well-defined personalities.

nope.

Most of them are non-standard assembly by now, I'm sure. None have any
background whatsoever

I really like the "good guy" figures from KK. The printed legs are
nice, the torsos are good, and the faces aren't bad. The faces on the
Bulls, OTOH, are awful, but some of the bodies are good.
There were some very good torsos in fright knights.
Forestmen are great.
I tend to use Black Falcons for guards & such on my castles. Probably
because my first castle was <set 6074>.
> 7. Is there a type of fig you find easy to make? A type you find difficult?
women are tough, due to a lack of appropriate raw material. Lego needs
to work on putting more women in their sets. (lipstick looks funny in
castles. but microphones are worse!)
I've never had any other problems.
> 8. Have you ever bought a set just for the figs?
no, I don't think so. my girlfriend might tell you otherwise, but I
don't think I have.

uhh.. wait, I know this one. Scala? err.. Fabuland? Duh. Who would
say anything but Star Wars?

| Hi everybody. :-) I thought it would be fun to have a mini-fig survey. I had two different things in mind for this survey, so I used two different terms to better express what I was asking. A “character” is a fig that you have given a name, a (...) (24 years ago, 27-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)
