Other General's Castles Speculation.
As the Castle expansion is now being found by most in local Wally worlds and targets, the exitement for it is finally starting to simmer down a bit. With Wave 5 in stores also, Wave 6 coming to stores soon, flag-bearers, and Marvelscape, there's alot to speculate about, almost too much, so I thought I'd add another. How would you feel about 4 more castles themed for the remaning generals? I know that if hasbro did indeed do this, we would be out another couple hundred dollars, but how many among us would actually welcome these possible sets? I would! *says in high pitched singing voice*

I would probably turn my pants into a canolie, if they came out with a buildable Marro Hive. Something really Dark and evil looking. OMG, I have a boner just thinking about it.

I'm not sure if i'd want to pay for 5 different castles but just Jandar and Utgar Castles!!! Seeing as they are the major players in this BOAT!

I have always thought there would be a castle set for each general. Most of what I pictured was the same castle with 5 color changes.
I do really hope to see about 3 unique designs. And then they could do a color/paint change to them. 2 clasic castles (current light, and then brown or black?) Future castles, looking more like steel construction. Hive? or possibly natural wood? Lots of ideas. Not sure how well they will fit together. |

I'm in complete agreement about a Marro Hive. Now that Jandar has a castle Utgar needs one too. I mean how cool would it be to be able to build a Marro Hive as a stand alone piece OR also build it on to a normal castle?! I am picturing a regular castle infested by the Marro with pieces of hive all over it, like you often see in movies when bugs/aliens take over buildings.
If they wanted the could also build some sort of tree-type structure to serve as Ullar's castle (ewok village!), some high tech skyscraper building for Vydar, and maybe a Roman type structure for Einar. I dunno.. just some dieas. What I do know is I want me a Marro Hive |

I can't see 5 castles being profitable. Is easier to sell more if only one type exists, other thing would be loosing money. Think it is kid targeted game, they don't spend the money we do.

Maybe they will just supply different General Flags, such as the Jandar flag included in the castle set, some other way? then people can customise their castles....who knows?!

well there are two different marketing campaigns. one is targeted at the younger crowd. And the other is targeted at us. Totally Different castles for each General, would definately be for us, and they know we'd buy multiples of each. Would be brilliant.
I'm thinking some kind of Borg ship looking tower for Vydar would be awesome. Or Rivendell treelike structures for Ullar. OMG...my boner just came back. I'm thinking Chinese temple like structure for Einer. Maybe a mongolian Buddist temple? |

I don't think that if hasbro at least put out an utgar fortress that they would loose money. What kid wouldn't want 2 castles(good and bad) to duke it out. you would be surprised at how many kids are going to buy 2 FOTA. It would be the same price(hopefully) to buy jandar and Utgar castles as buying 2 jandar. And anyway, Hasbro has already proven that they can make products for the adult players with the flag-bearers.

Well, yes. Just two castles could be. But never 5

Unfortunately you may be right, but my optimism is what gives me my edge!
