(...) Wow! That's probably the cheapest you'll be able to get castle babes nowadays! Seeing as how the Maiden's cart goes for like $80, the Guarded Inn goes for around $150, and King's Mountain Fortress goes for about $100.... so paying $90 for TWO (...) (25 years ago, 15-Dec-99, to lugnet.castle)

Very nice indeed Thomas! I have to say that this, the first major attempt by TLC at the Castle series (1982), was in many ways better than the later grey/black castle sets.

From what I know of it 2000 castle sucks overall. It has several poops like that arch piece. The new castle tower pieces are also crap. Castle has become juniorised. -- Jonathan Wilson wilsonj@xoommail.com (URL) (25 years ago, 16-Dec-99, to lugnet.castle)
