Come to think of it, I may not have had it, only building detailed copies.
I've never found the instructions for it, and I always saved those. Drat!

I agree! I disliked the Fright Knights (hokey, IMHO), but I like the other
cultural themes. Vikings would be cool, as would some sort of Byzantine theme.
I'd also love to see ancient Greek or Roman sets, but that ain't agonna happen.
I've always suspected that LEGO has avoided Vikings as a theme because they are
associated quite strongly with looting and pillaging. Too violent.
