Yeah, I would much rather have a LotR theme, but there are descent enough
castle elements in HP. speaking of which, I'm trying to build a Hagrid army
if anyone wants to help!
So what do people think of the new 2002 sets? Personally, I think the new
Alpha Team sets look terrible. Why in the world did they put them
underwater? Last I checked, Aquazone wasn't the biggest hit.
I do really like the new soccer sets--most specifically, the new red
uniforms and corresponding faces. Some of the Star Wars sets look OK,
although the e-woks don't seem quite as cool as they could have been. I am
happy to see some smaller HP sets (to build up the Slytherins), but I must
say, the troll looks pathetic!
Any other opinions?

| (...) Have you seen the Goblins in 4714? (...) Umm, I think you'll find that it was a very good seller. Almost all of the sets, (and this goes double for the orignal Aquanauts and the larger sets) rate 65 or more on the LugnetDB. In my experience, I (...)
