Well, This is my second attempt at bridging the gap between castle and mecha(an unlikely combination, i know!) and i hope that i have done better this time. With my last castle-mecha i was told that it seemed too mechish for castle, so i tried to (...) (20 years ago, 2-Jun-04, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.castle, lugnet.announce.moc)

(URL) you go.> I don't know the seller, and I won't be bidding. Coko has a few sets very similar to this. I own one of them, but I'm not sure if it's this one. In any case, elements of note are a bunch of 1x4 and 1x2x8 arch bricks, as well as a (...) (20 years ago, 1-Jun-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.castle, FTX)

(...) They don't really look like spraypaint to me. Perhaps someone has an irregular source for parts. I've heard of some people getting random stuff from the floors of the LEGO studios for stuff like brown antenaes etc. But I dunno. -Lenny (20 years ago, 1-Jun-04, to lugnet.castle)

There are enough obviously real Duplo pieces in there (horse, pot, 2*2 and 4*2 bricks, various plates, sloped bricks, ladder, ball) for me to think this is probably real, and as Mark pointed out the figs in the picture do compare well with the new (...)

(...) It wouldn't shock me. But, if you look at the castle front, it is 32 studs (regular) across the front of the tan baseplate. That'd make it something like 48 studs across the whole front. That seems quite big to me. (mind you, it is a $130-150 (...) (20 years ago, 31-May-04, to lugnet.castle)

Awesome! Terrific details there. I guess I might have preferred the highlights/details in black rather than white, but that's a matter of personal taste rather than building skill. Would love to see more pic of course, is there an interior? Magnus (20 years ago, 31-May-04, to lugnet.castle)
