Ok, I've been wondering about this for a while, but there's something right in
the center of the picture on page 16 of the 2000 catalog that's been bugging
me.  It's a model/set (?) of a horse-drawn treasure chest.  It has the same
wheel theme as the Moo Men (4x4 round brown peices) and it's got the blue
flags and knight of the Knight's Kingdom men.  Is this a set for sale?!  It's
not listed anywhere and I'm pretty sure it doesn't come with the 6094 castle.
Is this just something they threw into the picture or is it a set that will be
coming out sometime in the near future?

:) There was a bit of discussion on that issue when the 2000 catalog came
out... It's certainly not a currently available set, nor does it appear that
this set will be available in 2000. The only Knight's Kingdom set not listed in
the catalog (that I think anyone's aware of) is 4801/4811 Defense Archer
(Boxed/Polybagged). My guess is that it's either just a random model thrown
together for the picture, an alternate model for one of the available sets, or
it's a set that never made the production line, but was originally scheduled
to, and was photographed (just never removed from the picture). At any rate, it
is not a currently available set. :(

And while I'm on the subject (sort
of), I was just at the official LEGO Castle page, watching the little
shockwave movie thing, and it mentioned that the Lion Guys and the Moo Men
live in/near the Dark Forest.  If the Dark Forest guys don't return, how about
similar forest sets for the Moo Men?  I mean, they have to live *somewhere*...
they can't just be all about catapults... =)

Yeah, Dark Forest was probably the shortest lived castle theme-- I'd love it if
something similar returned for 2001... I don't have nearly enough forest-type
guys. :)

(...) Actually, the European catalog had a tiny polybag-size set with a Cowpack fig. I want to say it was #4807, and it had some kind of name like 'fire attack'. This might be on the LEGO website - it was for a while, then it was removed. It's (...) (25 years ago, 7-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)
