(...) Well, most of those similarities aren't just to BFF, but to all (large) Legoland Castle sets, so it may be a style knock-off rather than 1 specific set. I'm also curious as to how old this is - it may be just my read, but the auction listing (...) (25 years ago, 31-Dec-99, to lugnet.castle)

Should I get the "King Leo's Castle" (6091) set or 18 of the "King Leo" (6026) set?? The castle set has the King, Queen, Princess, both Soldiers, but the structure doesn't look good. If I get a bunch of the small set I get a small army. Either way (...) (25 years ago, 31-Dec-99, to lugnet.castle)
