    How do YOU build them? —Chris Barker
   To get things started, I figure I'll ask how y'all build items which would have been common accessories for samurai but are not available as pre-made parts: 1 sashimono (the back mounted flag) Johnny Blaze and I came up with some stuff for this (...)

     (...) Butt. I just use one hand to hold the side-grip on the lance or saddle-mount it. The Japanese didn't seem to be long on shields, so minifig anatomy being what it is, only one hand is needed for a weapon. (...) Not a lot of other choices. You (...)

      (...) Thanks! It's pretty neat to teach something to somebody who has come up with such cool stuff. I'll have to put up some pics of my minifigs that were inspired by your tire-hat guys. Actually, I got the idea about a naginata from those same (...) (23 years ago, 27-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle.ninja)

      (...) Marc, Excellent design for nagatina. I for one have always gone for look and feel and this captures the essence of the curved spear. Don't be surprised if this shows up on one or more of the troops on the next Japanese castle I build. Credit (...) (23 years ago, 27-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle.ninja)
