There has been at least one occasion in the past where no new castle sets were issued in a year. I know for a fact that it happened in 1991-- exactly 10 years ago. (btw, 1476 does not count as a castle set). And while I too am disappointed and can't wait to see the Harry Potter line (has it been definitively confirmed that Lego will put one out?), I will be spending my castle money on some of the (WARNING! BLASPHEMY!) Bestlock sets seen here: http://www.best-lock.com/new/ They are 100% Lego-compatible and have some wonderful unique pieces for EXTREMELY low prices. Check out the Castle and Pirate themes!!! I will always love Lego Castle best, but I am also always looking for ways to improve my own collection and create my vision. Waiting around for Lego to finally start making decent castles again just takes too long. :) Aaron West wrote: > Now, is 2001 the first time since the intro of CASTLE that the theme will > have NO new catalog item?

As far as I know, Best-Lock Castles are not sold in the US... So that won't help any of us that might be interested. Paul (...) (24 years ago, 13-Nov-00, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands)

(...) True! As of today S@H had all but 4819, the computers showed none in stock with no description further as to when or where. Rumors abound of KB having them in stock, but unless you work there or have a connection, it is a needle in a KB (...) (24 years ago, 11-Nov-00, to lugnet.castle)
