(...) Nitpick! You forgot 6073 Knight's Castle! 6073 and 6074 connect well together, too. :) On top of that, 6080 King's Castle and 6085, when opened, can both accept wall pieces, although they are on baseplates. Anyway, I'd love to see TLC return (...) (25 years ago, 23-May-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Yeah, it struck me as odd on that set-- as well as on 6081. The even odder thing being that even 6081 and 6034 aren't on the same level height-wise... (of course 6081 only had ONE peg... kinda useless, I thought. Not to mention harder to (...) (25 years ago, 24-May-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) All I can respond with is, expanding a castle, such as 6073 with the other Lego wall components is an ungainly and an unpleasent site. Because of the actual castle set's very nature (6073) you end up with 2 sides of a walled city or keep that (...) (24 years ago, 30-May-00, to lugnet.castle)
