I'd agree on the strong points idea... I kind of picture them as being raised
up several levels, and sticking out of the walls slightly, in the middle of a
solid wall... I'm not so sure I want to use them for towers though... They're a
bit too small for my tastes...

I'd say either soldier 'fig would sell easily, but the plate mail-wearing guy
would go for a lot cheaper since he'll be in 4811 and 6026 for about $2 and $5
respectively. Even the bulls will sell pretty well too, I'd bet (well... sell
easily, not necessarily for a lot of money). There's also that great big brown
plate they use for the drawbridge, in addition to the smattering of tan
throughout the set, and the lion carvings.
