Am I the only one who is confused about Disney production of this movie?

Shouldn't it be some studio that'll throw in 80,000 sex scenes and cover the camera lens with blood over and over again?

Yes.
Prince of pr0n is some dodgy mobile phone game where you run Playboy. Someone sent it to me.

Looking very promising.

I may be wrong but I think Pvt Expendable may be onto something. The Crusader Helm with the cylindrical helm and slit looks resin casted to me and a bit rough for Lego. :? (Look at the dude on the drawbridge).

The other sets don't look all that special and a bit bland so they could indeed be real Lego Castle sets. :D

Look at the edges, this appears to have been stuck onto a box, also it has a watermark on it, which should surely be added to the picture not the box.

This is usually what Lego sets look like when they hit February Toy Fair - lots of resin prototypes, stickers where there should be print, the big "CONFIDENTIAL" stamps on the boxcovers, and non-final set designs. Toy Fair models are just to give retailers a general idea of the concepts and price points, so they can decide how many orders to put in, and then Lego can set their production numbers to fill those orders. The mockups aren't always very accurate representations of the final products. In fact I think sometimes the designs can change just based on how many orders come in; more sales means more budget for fancier pieces and so forth.

Hrm. I kinda figured that was how it worked, but that makes a lot more sense. Thanks Stubby.

It doesn't look like there are any really cool bricks in these sets though. I dunno, the Dark Tower might be worth picking up.

Who cares for fancy bricks when you can get an awesome old-school caste?

the helmet kinda reminds me of:Image

Also, the king looks a little vulnerable up in that tower. The enemy army set needs to come with a catapult

The design of these sets is very nice, though. Looks like the LEGO castle line is really going back to its roots, minimizing the amount of POOPs and level of juniorization.
