"Kinda bothers" you?  It extremelly bothers me!  Castle was always my
favorite theme, and a favorite among lego collectors over the world.  I have
no idea why they would discontinue the theme.

reference: http://www.fbtb.net has a copy of the 2002 brochure.
note: there is NO mention of anything castle, knights kingsdom or
otherwise.. i
think this mean discontinued.. but my real question is why? because of hp,
or
new castle for later 2002? (somehow i think hp is what's behind it)

also of note:
*pictures of the ewoks, using the chewbacca style minifig.
*another hp set using something that looks like a troll or something
(hagrid
style- special molded body and minifig head).

i was never a big fan of kk, actually i hated it.. but there was something
reassuring about lego continuing to sell castle sets, and now it seems
castle
has gone the way of pirates.. never to return!

this really kinda bothers me.

It doesn't necessarily mean the Knights aren't being manufactured • anymore.
It may just be the shops gearing up to shift as much Harry Potter stuff • as
possible.  It's selling from Legoland Windsor faster than they can stock • it,
and this is before the movie release.
