This part of the art of Lego. Adding to a theme to increase the size of the
army.
I took the newest and last armada soliders (green and red) and added them to
the Woodsmen and old Lion Armies. They became officers or minor nobles
whatever you wish to call them. Give them the Dragon Master Helmets or the
Bush hats from the new adventurer theme. Presto more troops. My old Lion army
is over 61 and counting and there are 49 merry men for the King of the
Woodsmen, actually Qui-Gon-Jinn with a crown instead of his hair. Darth Maul
with a different head becomes King of the evil Witches, etc. I look forward
to the challenge of filling the ranks. Add female head to new longhorns figure
and we'll have Dennis Rodman.
very respectfully,
don
