(...) Hagrid's Hut at Kmart this weekend at 20% off. I would say for $24, it had a nice variety of pieces. Again, taking cost into factor, it doesn't beat out the MTT. The plates are not very useful and the roof is *rap. The fact that you have to (...) (23 years ago, 26-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) the Guarded Inn is probably the best for your buck these days in terms of pieces for new castles. If you consider postage etc, you could get about three of these for the same money you would spend on just one King Leo's Castle. That's 15 grey (...) (23 years ago, 26-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)

A few to add: Slave I - TONS of green slopes, brown, etc., and coupled with the Landspeeder (also a good one) for $15, this is a great set. Also, I gotta give a nod to the Young Dinosaur series (7000-7003). These have a good bunch of grey and dk. (...) (23 years ago, 26-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I think you've got my two favorites pegged there; my most recent MOC (which admittedly is a boat, not a castle - but it's *for* castle!) would never have happened without many 7184's. For traditional castles Guarded Inn beats other current (...) (23 years ago, 26-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)

Hey, everybody. my View on the best set for castle out is the Hogwarts castle, hagrid's hut, and the no, brainer, guarded inn. Here is why: Hogwarts: It is a huge castle, you get great minifigs like Hagrid and Dumbledore, the body armor... Plus all (...) (23 years ago, 26-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)

I'd add 6094 Guarded Treasury - it has cool window, dungeon door, gray and blue slopes, the lion head sculptures, and a tower piece. Castaway Pirate "Pawel Nazarewicz" <verneer@utk.edu> wrote in message news:GnE9vH.7zy@lugnet.com... (...) (23 years ago, 27-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)

These are my choices for best castle theme sets out now: (Guarded Inn - does not really count, It would be very hard to out do most LegoLand Castle sets before the 1990's) Best small set: - Knight's catapult 4816 - it has decent peices and two nice (...) (23 years ago, 27-Nov-01, to lugnet.castle)
