   Hi,

       I'm just wondering which is considered the better forestmen set 6066
(camoflauged outpost) or 6077 (woodsmen water fortress)? I know 6077 sells
for more, but is it really better? Any thoughts?

         Thanks and God Bless,

Hello Nathan,

I have 6077, but not 6066 - waitin' for a good deal on e-bay. 6077 is bigger
definitely bigger than 6066 - but 6066 does look cool for playability. '77
is also GREAT for parts and figs, and it's hinged to open up, which is cool.
I like the 6077 a lot, but my favorite Forestmen set is 6071 - awesome base
plate, even better playability, and better figs, by far! But, as I said, I
don't have a 6066 - YET - so I can't give an opinion about it, other than it
looks VERY cool from the pictures.

6071 IS nice - the forest wench torso was a really cool inclusion. However,
mine came with the annoying white paint on the plate to deliniate where one
should begin building. To me this takes a great deal away from the set,
because I have to think about covering up the white dots if I wish to use
this plate for a MOC.

I don't own a 6077, but I do own a 6066 and I love it. It is definately my
favorite of the Forester's/Dark Forester's sets that I own. Probably because
I had to save up to get it as a kid. :)

Oh, and did I mention that I just got a 6086 off e-bay at below retail! sorry.


Bill (still exited about acquiring a 6086......at below retail!)

Lucky. :)

(...) I agree, I like 6077 better, it has more parts, an ocean baseplate, and the black forestmen (I *love* that torso - I use it for Doyle).
