If you refer to building only castle but own multiple themes, then I can
help you. If not, I think you can collect as much as your disposable income

I personally build a lot of different themes: space, castle, ninja, Alpha

And in building these various things, I find myself using pieces from all

Diver Theme Harpoons as Architectural detail:

Star Wars wings and pylons as sails on a ship:

Castle Lance as a lamp post, Space thrusters as pier pylons:

promotional opportunity. Can you blame me???
