  Help assembling minifigs
 
didn't know where to post my help. I have hundreds of minifigs all taken apart. I would like to put them togeather but how do I tell what head goes with what body. I have been searching catalogs for sets they may have come from but wow...this looks (...) (23 years ago, 26-Jun-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Help assembling minifigs
 
(...) Yes. :) Check out the Fibblesnork Guide, which has a fairly complete (up to Fright Knights) listing of castle sets, and you can list the sets by theme. It has a picture of each figure as it comes in each set. (URL) probably the easiest way. (...) (23 years ago, 27-Jun-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: site update
 
(...) Good Job James! I'm glad you enjoyed yourself! (...) as far as I know... not yet, I hope someday we'll get more castle parts done. I just don't have the time to badger the part creators :( I was just happy to get the bush that Tore did! I (...) (23 years ago, 27-Jun-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.cad)
 
  Re: site update
 
(...) I'm more familiar with Jonathan Wilson's version of m6067.dat (found here) than the actual set. And there's no sign in there. (Also no minifigs.) Since I use m6067.dat as a great test case for BrickDraw3D I've been wishing it could be (...) (23 years ago, 27-Jun-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.cad)

Erik: (...) [...] (...) Sounds like it is time for me to "improve" it a bit. ;-) It really ought to have seats around one end and starting gates at the other end. Jacob (23 years ago, 27-Jun-01, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.cad)

  First True Harry Potter Pics!
 
Hi, I've uploaded the first true Harry Potter pictures, see (URL) René www.1000steine.de (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle) !!

(...) me is the Hogwarts Express. There seems to be lots of new hair and headgear pieces. Plus 2 colors of Purple sorcerers hats. There are purple chairs. The Owls look pretty cool. Plus it looks like a cool set of armor in the big Castle set. Only (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: First True Harry Potter Pics!
 
I do like some of the Harry Potter sets. But I don't like the way Lego used cardboard for buildings in the background. (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: First True Harry Potter Pics!
 
Oh wow. I didn't think they'd be this good. I mean, yes, they do seem a bit juniorized...but they have many, many pieces great for "castle" use. Purple wizard hats, black beards, two-headed dogs, jewels, cauldrons, new hair pieces, green convex (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: First True Harry Potter Pics!
 
The roof pieces on Hogwarts castle and on Hagrid's hut are plastic sheets, they could have made the roofs out of sloped BRICKS at least! The owls look nice, but one could overpopulate a forest quickly with all of those owls. Purple witch's hats! (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: First True Harry Potter Pics!
 
Fantastic sources of parts. Thoroughly uninspiring ugly sets ugh. not sure about the new arched doorway pieces. looks thorougly unlego to me as it looks sculpted rather than flat with a printed pattern. same gos for the roof tiles. The big orange (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: True Harry Potter Pics...and I feel sick!
 
(...) Hideous junk? Awful ABS? Juniorized dreck? Total garbage? "Good source of parts"? What a complete and utter disappointment. Hurl. Maybe I'll recover and look again, but some of these rank on first look as the worst Lego sets I've ever seen, (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: First True Harry Potter Pics!
 
(...) Not sure I necessarily agree. I can see my kids going absolutely gaga over them, and I like the modularity evident in the room sets. I wonder if they integrate into the overall castle as well? Do we know the provenance of these pics? ++Lar (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle)

(...) 4701: Nifty way to do the choosing hat. Black palm tree forks. Harry's hair, white owl. 4702: Sand green 6x6 roof piece, arches, is that a red spider? Black owl. New hair style, arches. 4704: Sand green 6x6 roof piece, white feathers (flying (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: True Harry Potter Pics...and I feel sick!
 
(...) Posted one reply to James which didn't seem to make it (maybe I accidentally deleted the confirm mail) I am not sure I agree. The colors may be a bit loud but I just don't see this as "juniorised dreck". I expect that when I get home this (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle)

I think I spot a rat...a Lego rat? mouse? In both #4722 (at his feet, under the red suitcase) & #4723 (on the mantle). It's dark grey and has a different tail then the kitten, unless this is a new kitten? There is a picture of a rat in a cage in the (...)

  Re: First True Harry Potter Pics!
 
(...) Yep, like others, I'm skeptic. These sets, while following TLC's "bad design, good parts" record, just don't look Lego. If they are, I'll gladly eat crow, and go ahead and buy some of these, for the parts (I can't get over that spiral (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jun-01, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.castle)
