I just purchased 4776 from Toys R Us, and it has the same problem - the shields
are simply black rather then printed like it shows on the box. I did buy the
smaller Knight and Squire set at the same time. The shield in that set is
printed.
Thus, I’d conclude the unprinted shields in 4776 is some sort of production
error. I plan on contacting consumer affairs for replacements.
btw: I really the new duplo castle sets. The duplo figures can hold a variety
of weapons, armor shields and still stand up. The dragon is very cool. I
especially like the detail put into the choice of materials. The tail and wings
are a more rubbery plastic and better suited for young builders.
I like how the big castle walls click together and it should be possible to
build at various angles. Looking forward to getting the bigger castle set.

Here is the ‘problem’. The picture of the set very clearly shows the shields
have a design on them (either via sticker or direct printing). This can be
seen in the set picture on S@H here
and the box art shows the same both in the set picture and the parts included
picture on the top of the box. My set had no design printed on the shields
and no stickers at all in the box. The other decorated elements (2 1x2x2
bricks) are both printed with the design and are as shown in the set art.
Does anybody else have this set and can confirm the status of these shields
either way? And Lego - you may want to look into this as it appears to be
some sort of error.

| I picked up the 'Dragon Tower' Duplo Castle set (4776) today at LLCA and it is a very nice set. I was worried that I would not like them, that they would be "to MBish". While they do have a hint of "MBish" to it - it is still a very cool set and the (...) (20 years ago, 22-Nov-04, to lugnet.duplo, lugnet.castle, lugnet.lego, FTX)
