(_Some sets of interest for Castle folks_) (If questions should arise, seek clarity within the following explanatory links) http://news.lugnet.com/off-topic/clone-brands/?n=1272 http://news.lugnet.com/general/?n=36868 ~And here they are… !New Castle Sets!… http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1732671735 It has a Scala-esk background, but the pieces are all castle…no pink stuff! It comes with a red cross-bow & red long-bow!!! (interestingly enough, there’s an 1812 era British army hat?) http://cgi.aol.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1732671761 (Note the red halberder) http://cgi.aol.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1732671764 (Nothin’ special, just a weird mini-fig near the altered cannon… and a stick of dynamite just to make things interesting! LOL) http://cgi.aol.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1732671730 (parallels the original quite closely, except for the print on the royal knight) http://cgi.aol.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1732671765 (The majority of the helmets seem altered?) http://cgi.aol.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1732671751 (Take note: the brand ‘Shif*ty’ is different from the allegedly authorized ‘Brick’ brand knock-offs. In that Shif*ty is an inferior product that has other brand parts mixed in) And a few Pirate: http://cgi.aol.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1732671742 http://cgi.aol.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1732671743 http://cgi.aol.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1732671746 http://cgi.aol.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1732671800 Jus’ one question though… What’s up with the choice in names? And I quote: “Treasury Island” “Strange Head Island” “Archon's Cockleboat” “Memento Mori Bastion” really wantin’ some of these messed-up sets, --==RïçhårÐ==-- Check out Ka-On Lee’s photo of a shelf full of knock-offs: http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=83429 “I hate to say this, but massive "replica" Lego castle sets for $5? I want to go to China and build a bootleg army...” -Aaron Dalan Your not alone my friend!
