Hi Todd,
Please, do us Castle fans (I'm prolly not the only one who wants this) a huge
favor and include LOTS of Qui-Gon Jinn torsos, otherwise known as peasant
torsos in the Castle context. We love'em, we need'em, and those who don't
happen to be SW fans as well as Castle (like me), don't have them!
I just got my first one today, which makes me want more!
Please, put them on (but don't count only on my advice ;-)
Also, 7161 seems to have lots of slopes in blue, grey and (?) dk grey. I don't
know what else's in there, but that might be useful.
7124 has tons of green pieces which I'm sure will attract many people.
7171 will surely be a GREAT thing, all the hard-to-find colors and minifig
selection.
I'm no SW fan but Auczilla is supposed to attract people from all themes.
(Isn't that so?) In which case I would like to see some Castle sets taken
apart - the rare and semi-rare figs would prolly go for a lot (Queen,
Princess, Brown-mustached knight) and there are lots of nice, new pieces
included there.
I *would* like to see Belville pieces but I know they wouldn't attract big
audiences (except for the gems and magic wands that are already majorly
discussed in the castle newsgroup). Too bad...
Rock Raiders might be worth something with all those teal pieces. Then again,
they might not.
Well, HTH...
btw, is bidding allowed for >18 y/o? If not, can I request bidding approval
from my dad or something?

Come see a good use for that pizza babe` torso, for the witch's legs, and for
Jet's face! See Scar, Siferra and Cleo on:

| (...) I agree! All teal pieces from Rock Raider sets are a nice touch for a Castle or Temple. My view is that, in general, the Underground sets are not very nice, but have some interesting pieces. For example the DkGray wings used in the feet of (...) (25 years ago, 27-Jan-00, to lugnet.market.auction)
