(...) I agree that the appeal of this set is undeniable =8^) I almost said 3053...After building a couple of these, there is alot of detail and the Tan+blue color scheme seems to really work. I have more elements in white, red, + black than Blue+tan (...) (23 years ago, 6-Mar-01, to lugnet.castle.ninja)

(...) True. It is fairly close to the hairstyle of Japanese women at that time. Maybe I'll have to get me an islander or three now. I'm gonna need a Tomoe Gozen minifig for a project and that would look better than the standard long hair. Chris (23 years ago, 7-Mar-01, to lugnet.castle.ninja)

(...) I'm not really a Ninja fan, yet I own a ton of Ninja sets, go figure... Actually, I probably will make some Ninja MOCs, I'm just not a real student of Japanese culture, so my MOCs will be more based on what looks cool to me. I must complement (...)

The armor, helmets, and other accoutrements were all welcome, but to be expected. The walls were something very (...) (23 years ago, 7-Mar-01, to lugnet.castle.ninja)
