Can anyone who actually owns <set:4817> the Chrome Kinght's Kingdom Dungeon tell me if the treasure chest contains gems or colored 1x1 round plates? If they are gems (which they probably aren't), what colors? BEN GATRELLE (24 years ago, 16-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.castle)

(...) (URL) tells me you confirm that these are diamonds, 1x neon-green, 1x dark-green, 1x red and 1x blue transparent. This looks like a pretty cheap source for these then. (Your link to 701.jpg doesn't work.) Thanks, BEN (24 years ago, 16-Oct-00, to lugnet.castle)
