(...) Wow! Good catch, Richard. I'm pretty positive those are the same element. I don't think they've ever been used except in the Yellow Castle. Cool... so either the mold for this part still existed (and was still usable after 20+ years), or LEGO (...) (23 years ago, 24-Apr-01, to lugnet.castle)

Richard, I've never seen the yellow jersey's. I've seen the light grey ones with a black & yellow chevron sticker (possibly from on an early train? set). Thanks for the heads up! I'll be adding yellow armour to my collection. Clark (...) (23 years ago, 24-Apr-01, to lugnet.castle)

The entire set tends to go for around £100 so someone was desperate. It is odd though as the only items you really can't get elsewhere are the visors, as had been said the bodys are plain, the helamtes and weapons are light grey which is avaliable (...) (23 years ago, 25-Apr-01, to lugnet.castle)
