(...) Perhaps you have a larger picture than I do, but I have to say that the only female I see is on the top of the tower of 6091. The knight by the gate shows no obvious female characteristics. In fact, with that style helm on, how can you say for (...) (25 years ago, 11-Dec-99, to lugnet.castle)

[follow-ups to lugnet.market.shopping--that seems as logical as anything else] Weee-haaaa! I just got back from Meijers, and they had a *ton* of new LEGO sets. :):):) I restrained myself, mostly.

Well, a bunch of castle stuff that I bought from Tom Schlosser came over the weekend... and I found a rather good bonus! I bought the Guarded Inn (6067) and instead of the red princess conehead hat, I got the white one!!! Of course this means (...) (25 years ago, 13-Dec-99, to lugnet.castle)

| | Future New Castle Weapon

The castle theme has a very nice variety of weapons that have been made for it over the years, but one conspicuously absent from the theme has been the mace. In my opinion, maces are friggin' awesome, and I think it would look pretty cool if lego (...) (25 years ago, 13-Dec-99, to lugnet.castle)
