0. How many castle figs and charachter do you have?
200 plus but I will have to count them to be sure
> 1. What is the first character you remember creating?
Ruben my first battlemage.
> 2. Of your current characters, which did you build first? Last?
Still Ruben, Last is Lord Oaric, Commander of the Ghosts
> 3. Do you have clear “good” and “bad” characters, or is it all relative?
Not really but the charachters are definitlly more good or evil than my
factions of figs.
> 4. Have you ever built a MOC specifically for a pre-existing character?
Not yet
> 5. How many custom (non-standard assembly) castle figs do you have? How
> many have some bit of a background, or a personality?
if you mean altering TLC's arangement of parts that make up a fig [for
example using the wolfpack torso (w/ black arms) black helmet and dark grey
legs (w/black hips)] I have quite a few (I'll have to go home and count)
> 6. Which Castle subtheme has the best figs?
Uhhhh. . . . Well I like the light and dark grey torsos from frightknights
but overall design of standard, as they appear in the instructions, figs is
probablly . . . um . . . Black Falcons? or crusaders or . . . ack.
but then Knight's Kingdom (4811 defence archer knight)offers the best fig
customibality I have tons of factions some with grey arms some with blue and
some w/ red. (I have a ton of old town and other figs that now have red arms.
> 7. Is there a type of fig you find easy to make? A type you find difficult?
Archers are getting hard to make cause it is hard to get bows and arrows
anymore (sepecially brown) I have run out of brown bows. Spearmen are
pretty easy to make, I used to have a huge stockpile of spears (Which is
running out cause don't give figs crossbows or big scary axes and leave
those weapons for charachters) The standard 4811 archer with a brown spear.
> 8. Have you ever bought a set just for the figs?
All the time. I don't (generally) build the model on the box especially
with castle. starwars I did but took the figs and sacrificed them to the
castle theme. Ruben now has a imp guard torso and he look real cool
> 9. Which non-Castle theme is the best source of Castle compatible figs?
Starwars
> 10. Is making a background and/or personality for a fig something you find
> simple, or challenging?
well. a basic idea is pretty simple and slightly indepth isn't hard but
that is usually as far as I get, I don't make super indepth char stories
cause I change the chars too much. ex: originally the king's three sons
were going to be fighting when I started. The king;s men are knight
kingdom, Prince marcus' men were the royal knights (original design) and the
young twins Jigan and Jion are original crusaders grey helm, red torso,
blue arms, black hips Jigan's men have lion torso w/ blue shield and red
legs and Jion;s men have axe torso w/ yellow shield and blue legs. I ended
up changing Marcus's Royal knights so that they looked more like the
original crusaders (red royal knights torso, blue arms, grey helmet, blue
legs with black hips) they looked very similar so I made them allies again
and had to change my story

| Hi everybody. :-) I thought it would be fun to have a mini-fig survey. I had two different things in mind for this survey, so I used two different terms to better express what I was asking. A “character” is a fig that you have given a name, a (...) (23 years ago, 27-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)
