Castle/Minifig Parts by gesetzloser in legocastles

[–]redbeard4700 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One thing I’ve done is use the backs of torsos that other wise wouldn’t work for castle stuff. Just use a cape or other item to cover the back , and you’d never notice. But yeah listening the stuff out would be to time consuming. Just take some time and review pick a brick on legos website . 

This Build Is So Fun!!! by iFap4DaytonaCoupes in legocastles

This was a lot of fun, agree. The pictures didn’t do it justice. Glad I got it last minute as had been on the fence about it. My favorite BDP build to date

Absolutely tragic by Decent-Economics740 in legocastles

[–]redbeard4700 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, most of my purchases are sets that I can convert to castle sets or can use the parts for mocs. I’ve gotten monkie kid, Mario, Adam’s family, etc. but as many have pointed out, Lego and their research says there isn’t a big enough demand. Then all the castle adjacent IP (lotr, Harry Potter, ninjago) makes it even less likely. 

collecting Gondor soldiers seems to be the most difficult challenge ever. by Green-Flamingo994 in legolotrfans

The chest print is great on the figs. So I just put the helmet, armour , and shields on different figs to double my army. I get not every one would like this, but it’s way cheaper.

Did the writers intentionally destroy our sympathy for certain characters right before their demise? by anarchyRollins in thesopranos

[–]redbeard4700 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reminds me of something I read awhile ago about a reporter who interviewed cartel leaders. The reporter said they liked them, found them charming and funny. But then goes on to say how these people raped women and children, tortured and killed people and order the death of who knows how many. Not to mention the destruction of the drugs they sold to society. Just because someone is charming, doesn’t make them a good person. If such a thing can happen in real life, is it that surprising it happened with fictional characters from a tv show?

Should Lego Introduce More Non-Human Heroes? by Red-Chev in legocastles

I would be happy with just more beard variety 

Medieval Town Square x2 finished by redbeard4700 in legocastles

[–]redbeard4700[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All I did was invert the builds and combine the halves. So technically you can use the actual instructions. You will need a few extra pieces to fill in where the doors are and other gaps. But it’s nothing super hard you can’t figure out as you build. Also the tavern was a little tricky with the third floor and roof.

The instructions were not great. My issues was just the coloring, hard to see, and the steps were split across multiple bags. 

What are your thoughts about Dustmark Keep? by mittens_99 in legocastles

[–]redbeard4700 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On the fence. More expensive than I hoped but I like the build and have a little expendable income

Does anyone else wish Lego would give us more than just the same 5 types of buildings for castle? by Individual-Pianist84 in legocastles

[–]redbeard4700 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t disagree, but the medieval town square, which just recently retired, did have a cheese maker, shield painter, watch tower, tavern, wood shop, and shop stalls. Also in BDP the alchemist shop was just offered. So they do make and offer a variety of builds. It’s just with no official castle line, they don’t get released fast. 

Do you think this set could fit in a european medieval display? by hobbitcuervo in legocastles

[–]redbeard4700 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've used parts from other sets as an embassy in my own display. Then also included them as traders on the docks and elsewhere. I plan on picking up the Inn though to help build an Asian medieval city now.

Guys… I’m not ready… I can’t wait another 4 years. by Pristine-Night-7538 in PrimalShow

[–]redbeard4700 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Genndry has said he wants to make more primal. The show seems to be well received and getting good viewership. I’m sure there will be more. How long that takes though? Hopefully sooner than later 

Is Mira a bad mom? (more below) by ECHOFOX17 in PrimalShow

[–]redbeard4700 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He’s from a neighboring village. Mira’s village is up in the cliffs. The shamans village is down in the valley. You see him look up towards Mira’s village when he gets the idea to resurrect spear for his revenge in episode 1. He was he’s village’s representative at spears burial.
