(...) My initial reaction was cool! Then I thought more and decided that I wish it was actually a regular head. I'd also have preferred the Ewoks to be a regular head with printed torsos and use the forester cowl, the Star Wars cowl, or possibly a (...)

(...) Yeah, painted on noses stuck out like a... oops, wrong newsgroup. Seriously, that Indian head nose looks so weird among the population. Only Timmy had a nose before that. (right?) Maybe painted-on pointed ears would be worth trying. (23 years ago, 4-Jan-02, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.general)

So, the Gringott's Bank set has goblin heads with protruding ears and such. Are these a good idea in general, or best used sparingly? I figure that you can accept these heads as just one more special piece like beards and hairdos, or worry about the (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-02, to lugnet.harrypotter, lugnet.general)

Using parts from the Harry Potter sets (particularly the new 4712 "Troll on the Loose" one) it is now all too easy to construct a Headless Horseman mini-fig. I threw this one together and snapped a few pics using the new camera (combo s-vhsc (...) (23 years ago, 28-Dec-01, to lugnet.build.minifigs, lugnet.general, lugnet.year.2002, lugnet.harrypotter) !

I took a look at my stairs but I can't tell if they are defective or not. How do you know? They seem fairly loosey goosey but I thought that's what its supposed to be like..? I guess I'm just a muggle? (23 years ago, 28-Dec-01, to lugnet.harrypotter)
