  Of course, for armies, you don't need a lot of women (at least not in
medieval times).  In terms of money, your most expensive armies would
consist of the guys from 677/6077 (my favorites, I have about 40 of them!)
followed by Black Falcons, then Crusaders or Forestmen.

Good point-- in terms of specific castle figs, females are probably the rarest
by far... just look at how much the Maiden's carts and Forsest Wench's go for!
They probably released fewer of these than any other figs...

But as far as specific 'teams' or 'armies', I'd say probably the classic yellow
castle-style knights are the rarest nowadays... although seeing as Wolfpack
only released 2 sets, and there were only a few sets with them included (and
they only lasted a couple years), they might eventually turn into the rarest
genre... But for right now, I'd be tempted to agree... Of course, I'm terribly
flexible, but if I HAD to rank them:

- "classic" (yellow castle style)
- Black falcons
- Classic Forestmen
- Crusaders/Lionhearts
- Black Knights
- Wolfpack
- Dragon Masters
- Dark Forest
- Royal Knights
- Fright Knights
