Thank you for posting these.  I'm glad we have some new castle sets and new
parts, but what could have been their motivation for designing these sets?
They're ugly and probably the most unrealistic castle sets ever.  I say this
because if someone is looking to get into castle, I doubt these sets will
attract them to the theme.  Blue and green visors?  I don't know ...

8777 - Nice small set to stock up on horse covers.  I'll buy a few.
8778 - Are those spikes underneath the bridge?  How violent.
8779 - Vroom, vroom?  I do like the giant coats of arms.  More of that would be
nice.
8780 - Curved windows - good.  Are those 2x2x3 bricks though?
8781 - How much are they paying people to design this?  That's something that
comes out of a speed building contest - not the end result of professional
designers with unlimited supply of bricks.

Something is better than nothing though:)  I can't wait to get a closer look at
them.
