i loved the new wolfpack marauder (and i do hope that signals more sets that include this wonderful faction) but i must say that the tax collector is my favourite. it's just so detailed and, as you said, matches the story behind him so well

The upgraded version, while a bit different, seriously looks way more like a rogue / bandit indeed. The tax collector is almost perfect as is. It is a bit strange to me, that they went all out on those 2 characters by adding cloaks, while they were clearly the best and most interesting figures already.

I think the Tax collector fig would actually be great to army build and make into a faction. Not a full kingdom in my eyes, but more of a noble house that has sworn fealty to the Lion Knights, but they would still have their own goals and aspirations. I think the torso and legs would look fantastic with some simple flat silver armor pieces to denote guards, men-at-arms, etc.

@@Goldfyre A griffin is a great sigil for a medieval faction! I think, assuming the parts are on pick-a-brick, I’m going to get maybe 8-12 of the torsos and legs to outfit in different armors. Maybe one to be the lord of the house, and this tax collector would be his son. Kind of House Lannister vibes. Loyal but also a bit mischievous. The arrogant expression in the tax collector, plus purple being historically seen as a royal color, lends well to the house having a high standing/outlook on themselves

Nice! I think the old battle ready lucy legs would work even better for the Wolfpack dude.

I love this new Wolf Pack torso, but that shouldn't be surprising ;) Tax Collector is brilliant too

I think the Goat Herd could be the Cheese maker as the Cheese maker's daughter is in the set but not him. Also he comes with another goat and goat Cheese so it makes sense that he is the cheese maker

Not to nitpick too much but the wolfpack maurader might as well get a musket because pants pockets werent really a thing until the 17th century. Great vid as always!

Keep it up! Im loving your videos rn cant wait for more

The tax collector and the Wolfpack are the best in the set! But the other figs are still good, even if you don’t like them they are still good for parts.

Huge upgrades! Love this!

Great upgrades. Wolfpack is back. Love the new torso.

You did an amazing job with these upgrades, cant wait to try them when I eventually pick this set up.

awsome upgrades as always! cant wait for these parts to hit pab and start army building

The Wolfpack is back!

Love the upgrades! I actually just finished my black falcon, lion knight, and dragon knight armies. I’m excited to make more!

really cool upgrades !

Very thoughtful mods, I dig it.

I used these old printed bull knight’s legs I still had lying around for the marauder. They’re black with a printed brown leather and brown leather straps.

Wolf pack is my favorite

You really nailed it with the Wolfpack and Weaver figures! Now you’re making me regret not having one of those sand blue Mando legs…

I think the gray legs on the Wolfpack fig were chosen because the OG gray legs Wolfpack variant appeared in the most sets. While I agree printed or dual molded legs are a big improvement, I don't think they have to be black/brown.

Good choice

The adventurer girl is great, I need that BTS hair piece. I'm sad that her torso print has yellow because I use realistic skin tones, buuuut this body works for my tieflings that use the horns from the Faun CMF

The hood of that red dress lady is one of the best pieces. I'm glad Lego is bringing back head covers for females (also different one in lion knights castle), which were almost mandatory in medieval times. It would be great to see some head covers for male figures as well, but fot the ladies it's way better than random weird hair pieces.

@ClassicStudStudios

I like the headress’ son soem figures ( inn keeper is a good example ) but I think I personally just prefer hairpieces ( as long as their nothing too fancy ). But to each their own!.

Cool vid. I think a purple faction could work. It would just be a bit tricky to find purple parts.

Thoghts on the tax collector: use the legs on a viking lamellar torso with either purple or light blue gray arms and black, brown, or light blue gray hands (lbg only if you use purple arms). Add black or lbg armor accessories. Now you have an alternate medieval Roman soldier to compliment or to oppose the dark red version (gotta love civil wars). The torsos can be used for light troops or as a bambakion (gambeson) under a breastplate for extra heavy elites.

If I ever decide to buy this set, the Tax collector will be the Emperor of the Castle land. With some custom loros (tunic, robe) it will look a lot like a Byzantine Emperor.

Despite the price increases on Minifig torsos for PAB, I also plan on getting a ton of them from this set. Absolutely plan on making a small Wolfpack gang as well, probably 10-12 guys. I'm still very torn between this and the A-Frame to get for my b-day.

very nice! It has been fun playing around with some of the new CMF 25 minis and doing swaps... the barbarian with the bat helmet... ooo I liek this..... then use goar herders head with the purple hair on the bat knight. I deceided they are going to be vegetarians... fruit bats... and throw a wrench in the expectations list. A scary but peaceful loving group.

Lego has to start putting the slimmer mandalorian cape in more medieval sets

Bro is underted asf!

Goldfyre, I'm not sure if you know this already, but the helm with nasal piece fits with a bandanna. I have used it in a few custom figs, I think it could look really cool for a soldier in cold weather or a bandit.

Nice video 🎉❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤😆😁😁😁😁

I had actually expected a review of the village, and part of me still wants you to do one. But that’s turned out great!, my favourites are the Wolfpack, adventurer, and wannabe Wolfpack, all 3 have some great personality!, when you’re able to get more Wolfpack torsos maybe try the wolf mask head ( the one you used in your berserker ) on the new torso!, should transition well because of the scarf! 🐺🗡️. My least favourite of the customs is the tapestry maker, for some reason I just think the mando legs didn’t work too well, but I think the rest turned out great!. Have a good day man😌

"Like many businesses, we’ve continued to see increased raw material and operating costs. For some time now, we absorbed this impact in an effort to keep our pricing stable and consistent. However, in recent months these costs have rapidly increased, so we have made the difficult decision to increase the recommended retail price (RRP) and wholesale prices across some of our global portfolio of products.    Finding the right price for a product isn’t easy and depends on a lot of factors.

The Wolfpack torso looks really good under that hood and cape. I thought it was much simpler. I will be getting those from PaB once they're out.

@Goldfyre

You've commented on my other videos though lol what are you talking about

Aside from the bandit, which clearly looks better and more menacing, I think it is more a sidegrade video than an upgrade video. They have become largely different minifigs for the most part, or were ignored as they were either boring or already good. Having more animals in de set definitely is needed. I like the goat and there are a bunch of smaller animals like a kitten, a squirrel, 2 birds, a bat and a snail. However, I would have forgone any of them except the goat and the nesting bird, to get some extra farm animals like a cow (for the cart that currently has nothing), a bunch of pigs or sheep (or both) would have also worked. Also, any larger medieval set really needs horses, as it is the primary way for people to get around in those times. Having two, or at the very least one horse in the set would have helped make it more lively and less stale. Overall, while I'm fine with the minifigs that came with the set, they aren't spectacular and there are a bit too few for what the set costs and how busy a town square should look. For 10-20 bucks more, they could have added at least some farm animals and 2-3 extra villagers, even if tbey weren't including new prints. That would have made the set much better, even though the value in this set comes from the buildings and the ton of detailing parts that have been included for those. Compared to the Lion Knight's Castle and the Viking Village, this is probably the least value for money, but it is still well designed overall and a ton of fun to build and display. Out of all of them, this is also the one that is easiest to upgrade yourself, by adding the animals and minifigs and maybe some more market stalls to fill up the town square.
