(...) Its just a great set. I had it for a birthday way back (look on the bright side, loads of sets come out stateside now you cant get elsewhere) well designed, like the blacksmith and armour shop its an accessory piece to the castles and adds (...) (24 years ago, 14-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Not necessarily. They may have run off an estimated 6 years worth of that pack in 1977 (or whenever it was released) with that being the last good shots the mold had left, and junked the mold. Then it sold a bit slower than expected so you got (...) (24 years ago, 14-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)
