The new lego knights kingdom sub-theme (rather sub-themes, we have the knights and the bull raiders) is absolute crap. Of all the good guy minifigs, we have exactly one mounted non-king, minifig. The big $100 castle has only 8 minifigs. Where are (...) (25 years ago, 16-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)

Hi Nan, (...) ^^^^^^^^ I wouldn't neccessarily agree. There are some things I dislike about it, but others that I do like. (...) Actually there's another one. A brown mustached knight appears in the two biggest sets. (...) Loooong gone... 6090 had (...) (25 years ago, 16-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)

Ravi, (...) Indeed. I have bought a few small ones of the new castle, but parted them out. The last range I built fully is the SW sets, but they will be destroyed soon as well! Scott S. ___...___ Scott E. Sanburn-> ssanburn@cleanweb.net Systems (...) (25 years ago, 16-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) And so does the 4.5v train that I have. And no, I'm not going to dig up the set number cause the honda website is eating enough resources as it is. Stupid honda website. (25 years ago, 16-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Well like some of the others have mentioned I don't really care about the sets. I don't think I have a single 2000 set still built. I do build all Star Wars and Castle sets at least once before I dismantal them and sort them in my parts bins. (...) (25 years ago, 16-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I remember, thats one reason I went into my short "Dark Ages" (...) I think it is obvious that the new sets are aimed for smaller kids. My favorite set, the 6085 Black Monarchs Castle, came with twelve minifgs and no special pieces except for (...) (25 years ago, 16-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Well... this is no excuse for them, (I don't like them) but they *can't* be made out of other pieces, unlike the definition of POOP (Piece [that could/should be made] Of Other Pieces). OTOH, the wall pieces are DEFINITELY SPUDs (Single Purpose (...) (25 years ago, 17-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I like the Knights Kingdom overall, there always seems to parts of things that every person doesn't like, but that's personal taste mostly. Some things are bad, stupid or just unpopular (i.e. timmy). I think the figs are very good in this (...) (25 years ago, 20-Mar-00, to lugnet.castle)
