Hi, I have been following the regional news and the rail news but just noticed Castle ( which is my first love in Lego). I have been enjoying some of the creations on various websites and noticed the Castle World info. I read it all and was (...) (24 years ago, 11-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle)

The thing that strikes me as odd about 4807 is that it is the only Knights' Kingdom set with the spoked cart wheels, all the others (that have wheels at all) have the big chunky "barbarians making do with what they can hack out of the woods" type. (...) (24 years ago, 11-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle)

There's also a very cool quasi-armor piece from the UFO space line, kind of like football pads, but wicked looking. I found these after buying a UFO clearance set from Zany Brainy for the big saucer sections (making a rotunda). After some careful (...) (24 years ago, 11-Aug-00, to lugnet.castle)
