I am wanting to expand my Lenfald army but have been unable to find any dragon knights in bulk that have a cheap freight. Being in New Zealand the freight tends to kill the price of any bargains I have found on ebay or bricklink. I am wondering where you guys in Lenfald get your figs and if you know any sellers that have a cheep freight.

Maybe not as cheap as the older dragon knights, but you might be able to get some of the newer CMF figs locally to save on freight. I'm talking about the rogue (which from your sig-fig you're obviously familiar with) as well as the dark green knight with the bear shield and mace.
If you order just the figs without accessories, you might be able to get a handful of each for a semi-decent price (I already have a bunch of weapons and generic shields, so that worked well for me).

Thanks for the advice. Its a shame that the dragon knights have become so expensive but TLG have put out some get figures recently that can be used for Lenfald.

I don't know if you are interested ... but I have a significant amount of the Kingdom Dragon figs. Since I'm Loreesi I don't use them all that often! Do you have any of the Lion knights from the same series? We may be able to work out a trade that helps us both.

Unfortunately I have very little Lion knights and the ones I do have I would like to keep at the moment. Thanks for the offer though, If I somehow come across loads of Lion knights I will let you know

It's all good ... I am having the same issues with tracking down figs from the same series at decent prices in quantities I am looking for.
Best of luck to you!

To us all. I still kick myself for not purchasing two of the Kingdoms chess sets when I purchased one. Best army building addition ever! Except now, I have to deconstruct my chess set for Lenfel builds, or I have to deconstruct my builds for a game of chess, drat

Yeah the chess set was a terrific deal, especially if you got one while they were on sale.

I still kick myself for being in my dark ages throughout the whole Kingdoms line!! Best castle line since the original Crusaders, Black Falcons, Forestmen etc of my childhood and I missed the entire thing!

Im looking at bricklink, with an overhead for how much to spend this time, and a part of me says "they aren't making these any more, get them now while they are still available!" And then another part of me says "I am not going into debt for Lego. Its not a bad idea, but no!"

Best castle line since the original Crusaders, Black Falcons, Forestmen etc of my childhood and I missed the entire thing! I almost did. I finally bought 4 sets right at the end before they were no longer available, and have bought everything else via bricklink since. Next time a good castle line comes around, I am buying up as many as I can!

That's a little on the pessimistic side though. It's possible we get a new castle line in just a year... maybe .

I think your best bet is many purchases of small quantities and lots of patience. Hopefully we'll get a nice castle line in a year or two. CMFs will have to keep us going until then methinks.
