    Twins brother will have some fight for throne.

    I don't mind you do some giveaways.  Tongue

    Actually, I think triplets (not counting the chess sets). The carriage set got another king minifig, with an odd plume. So weird having a crown with a plume on it.

    Oh, I think the crown is on fire.  Cheesy

    Lego set number :7097
    Name of set : Troll's Mountain Fotress
    Theme : Castle (Fantasy Era)
    Year released : 2009
    Number of pieces: 844
    Price : RM649.90

    Front view of box
    ============
    Strangely, this set does not have a flap. I was expecting the box size to be as big as the King's Castle Siege, but suprisingly, its quite compact.


    Side View
    ======


    Contents
    =======
    Packs are labled with numbers so the building process is modularized.


    Instructions

    Minifigs
    =====
    Here are the minifigs line up. 4 baddies and 4 good guys (I don't consider the ogres as minifigs simply because they are not MINI..duh~~).
    I think the king's armour is a bit unnecessary, considering the nice baju he is wearing.


    OK... I FINALLY confirmed this minifig here is meant to be of female gender! Look at the green lipstick!


    Creatures
    =======
    The ogres are relatively much cooler , having tatoos on their arms. Who said TLG is all goodie two shoes stuff?

    Minifig Weapons
    ===========
    Noticed that the default weapon of the knight is no longer a large chrome sword? Its a mace! Which reminds me of the game, warcraft (version 1).
    The clubs and spears have unique brown color. I don't recall other castle sets having weapons with this shade of brown Smiley.

    Other interesting parts
    ================
    Constant warfare has drained the troll king's coffers dry. That explains why his witch and himself have to resort to wearing tattered cloaks Tongue.
    Interesting. I think these are similar to those worn by the magnaguard minifigs/assembly.


    To be continued....

    The set is broken up into 6 modules:

    a) Main Entrance
    b) Left turret
    c) Right turret
    d) Left wall
    e) Right wall
    f) Citadel


    The walls are as shown, with mini turrets.


    The main turrents, with enough space to house ogres! On top of each turret are catapults.

    The finished Fotress!


    Extras.

    Knight: Hey dude, have you seen our messenger? We sent him few hours ago to secure the release of our king who accidentally tress-passed your territory when he was catching butterflies on Saturday evening.   Smiley

    Troll King: Oh.. that guy, he didn't bother to knock. Errm.. what happen was he tripped on one of our anti-theft mechanism. You knowlar, lately, many of our cloaks were stoen.  Grin

    Kinght: Argh!! You killed the messenger!! This means WARRRRR!!!!!!  Angry. We have 2 ultra canggih Submarines! My pet hamster starved to death due to the heavy taxes imposed on me and the rest of us to buy those 2 super weapons! Knowing the wisdom of our beloved leader, I am sure its (my hamster) sacrifice is worth it! Now, surrender before I order them to torpedo your Fotress!

    Troll King: Ehem! Unfortunately, submarines can't crawl up to this area. My fotress 7097 is called "Troll's MOUNTAIN Fotress" for some reason. You were saying...??

    Knight: Holy mama (esxclamation copyright Lion-kun)!

    Moral of the story:
    ------------------------
    a) Do not trust a leader that goes out catching butterflies on Saturdays
    b) Have the courtesy to knock first
    c) [add to list]

    Ok seriously:

    Pros
    -----
    a) Trolls finally have a place to bunk! No need to tumpang the Skeleton Tower
    b) There is a troll king and troll witch minifig!
    c) Fotress is Modular in design, can be taken apart and pieced together in different combinations
    d) You have two ogres!

    Cons
    -------
    a) Build is rather simple and repitative. Not much enjoyment in the building process.
    b) Knights do not have plumes! How sinfull!!!!!

    Hahhaha! Fantastic Review! =D. The set looked rather simple to Lion-kun. Thought it would've been more stuff for that kind of price! But Lion-kun's guesses are that the minifigs that came with them are pretty unique, 2 huge trolls, witch and king. So with no princess, Lion-kun wonders whats their motivation... LOL

    *Imagine the troll witch flaunting a kiss from the top of the tower and raises part of her skirt*

    Knight: BLUEGGGGGHH!

    Big Troll: Looks eekier than troll army food me had! O_O!

    Last but not least, ..... thats a crazy army there....... *Imperial March (Belongs to Lucas film) playing in the background*
