  Wizard Hoods / Elf Hats
 
After watching The Sword in the Stone, I just had to do it: (URL) used a dremel on these, the black one came out what I'd consider as close to perfect as possible, but I scuffed the blue one a bit..oh well. -Chris (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build.minifigs)
 
  Re: Wizard Hoods / Elf Hats
 
(...) Other than the obvious uses (I think this is totally cool for elves)... I think I'm gonna make you dremel a couple more of those, and then use a Belville fig to make me a Snow White and the seven (minifig) dwarves. ;-) -Shiri XFUT .belville (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.belville)

  Ninja stuff
 
Quick Question - Do people think of Ninja LEGO as Castle LEGO or as a seperate range. I know they are in the 60xx range but I dont consider them as real Castle EGO - discuss :) -- James Stacey www.minifig.co.uk (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Ninja stuff
 
(...) James - Sure! They're castles, they're just not "European" castles. Different uses for different cultures and all that, but I do consider them a part of "Castle". Just not one that I got into very deeply. I have 3-4 of the smaller sets but (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Ninja stuff
 
(...) Not So Quick Answer I think that depends largely on how one views or uses LEGO in general. For me, all sets are parts and minifigs are the focus. I find no play value in the buildings and such; they are parts with which to construct minifig (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Custom torso question
 
Ok, I've seen some of the BEAUTIFUL torso's some of you guys are creating. I would LOVE to try this on my own, but I have a few questions: 1) What program do you use? Photo Shop? 2) How did you create your template for the shape to keep it (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Ninja stuff
 
(...) Ninja has a real castle, armor, swords, helmets, cavalry, bows - why wouldn't it be real Castle? No, it's not medieval Europe, so it won't necessarily be of interest to everyone. I thought it a step up after Dragon Masters and Fright Knights, (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Ninja stuff
 
Ok lets rephrase this. Obviously they are castles - that is self evident :) do you however consider it part of the Castle Lego line or part of the Castle Ninja line Certainly is better than fright knights. "Bruce Schlickbernd" (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.castle)

  Re: Ninja stuff
 
(...) I consider the Ninja sets to be part of the Castle line. Not only are the sets GREAT for parts (LOVE the stone facade) and minifigs, but they give a whole new idea to ornamentation, realized in Lego. I also like the way they are put together. (...)

  Re: Custom torso question
 
(...) I myself use Adobe Photoshop. Other people use other programs, they all work fine. All you really need is a program that allows you to zoom in, cut, paste and draw. All of the torso designs that you've seen by me are totally hand drawn, with (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Ninja stuff
 
(...) Well, when Ninja was released there were no new castle sets released. So yes it could be considered castle. of course ninjas and knights were from different time periods and parts of the world. a ninja castle could not be just down the river (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Why aren't we going crazy?!?
 
If TLC is reissuing old sets those selling old sets not be too happy (EI held onto a guarded in to sell it on ebay for mucho $, And then TLC rereleases it in 2001[1]) I will be happy cause hopefully I can get some old sets again. but a little (...)

  Re: Custom torso question
 
(...) I have used Adobe Illustrator for most of my stuff, although if I am knocking off a pattern (Example: TLC's Guarded Inn Sign), I have used Photoshop for simple touch ups and improvements of the pattern. Although my Blacktron I clones are (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Ninja stuff
 
(...) Well, they're castles, they feature guys in armor with swords on horseback, they're in the 60xx range and are shipped to toy stores in boxes marked 'castle' -- so, they're Castle LEGO. :^) But, they're not european castle LEGO. So I consider (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.space)
 
  Re: Why aren't we going crazy?!?
 
(...) They won't be the same (different set numbers), but besides that, these are toys we are talking about, not investments. If someone takes a bath from using LEGO as an investment, well that's the breaks in a market.... (...) That's the whole (...)

  Re: Ninja stuff
 
(...) The Ninja Theme was what got me into the Castle Theme and I am still a die-hard ninja fan. Certainly I am not impressed with the offerings in the Ninja Theme and the structures but I can say the minifigs are very well done and the specialized (...)

  new castle pics on BrickShelf
 
I just recently updated my BrickShelf page. I know many of the images are very dark. Sorry :-/ I hope to have something new built in time for BrickFest (URL) Hitchcock (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: July surprise for castle fans!
 
(...) and then, at (URL) Brad Justus wrote this about the new "classic" set line: (...) Ah, so all we really have to consider is what Castle sets (or elements) meet this criteria -- the one about the molds being available. I am going to take another (...)
