OK guys, just wanna ask a dumb question here. Since I'm collecting so many new Castle theme minifigs here, have anyone wonder if the silver colour hat of the minifigs will peel or something over time? I wonder if they mixed the silver colour together with the plastic before putting in the mould (which will then make the plastic that particular colour inside out) to produce it or basically just a coat of paint sprayed on the hat? Anyone mind to share their experience of the silver hat based on Lego's past quality? As per my knowledge, the chrome such as on some sword will crack over time but not too sure about the silver hat. Of course the grey or other coloured hat (past castle collection) will not have this problem because the colour is added before going to the mould just like the bricks.

from my guess... the silver helmet paint will not peal off. However, after long time has pass, the colour may degrade, which mean it will not as shinny as like the first time. Just like the silver aerosol paint, the paint will become dull. The more you touch, the faster they are become dull.

Thanks mate, so how's your castle collection? Getting bigger and bigger? Hmm... right now I'll try to buy more Castle's Final Joust set as I really love the horse and minifigs that comes with it. Also noticed most places are out of stocks for Castle's small set especially Crossbow Attack but guess they are replenishing it soon. Alan from Brickboy told me his new stocks are coming in this Friday

im waiting for my another 2 parcel to come.. After that i will start to build another fortress

Hmm....Texchem sale cheaper Save money and wait for December Texchem sale

Was at brickboytoys yesterday....New stocks havent arrive. Was told by Alan that new stocks will be ready in a few more days...

Get ready to visit his new shop at Midvalley!!!

Hmm...Yesterday I went to TRU Subang Parade and spotted some new Lego sets such as Star Wars' Sith Infiltrator and Naboo N1 Starfighter, surprisingly it's cheaper than expected.

However, I did not see them replenishing the Castle sets so I guess got to visit Brickboy really soon. I wonder if these toy stores purchaser really do any inventory analysis. So many places out of Castle small sets such as Crossbow Attack and Final Joust which I bought 11 and 10 sets respectively

Hehe..Anyway Brickboy is opening at Mid Valley tomorrow (26/9/07).

Any of you guys going to Brickboys tomorrow ?

Hmm..I guess I will not be going because I've got whatever I wanted from Parkson and TRU for the past few days. Initially I wanted to buy the huge castle but I seriously ran out of place in my display cabinet while hate to keep my Lego in open air. Now I need to fork out money to buy a huge display cabinet first that might cost more than the castle

Anyway you guys have fun there.

Found this on the website about how diehard castle fans were asked to give feedback on creation of new Castle theme. Interesting to see Lego conduct their test and their willingness to listen.

Hehe..Seems like all of us are drooling over the Castle theme now but based on the leak, these sets will only be coming out in April 2008. If April 2008 in Europe/US then we are gonna wait like crazy before it's in Malaysia But the good point is our wallet could breath for awhile

Lately can't sleep thinking of the huge castle that I have yet to get....

Huge castle? This one


Come come lets compare army size

Man, I can't imagine how you are going to dust all your collection. That's what I don't want to, dusting...........So tomorrow I'll be going to Ikea to get their biggest display cabinet possible, if it's big enough I actually asked around for customization but it will cost me at least RM3000 for the size that I want and it will cost more than the huge castle alot

Hmmm.........Love for Lego is a headache when it grows too big.

nah... me even worst then u all.

the worst case, i rent a room only. That's mean if i want to move my stuff, i have to move my whole battallion of army and fortress. In addition, i dont have car also.
