| (...) James - Sure! They're castles, they're just not "European" castles. Different uses for different cultures and all that, but I do consider them a part of "Castle". Just not one that I got into very deeply. I have 3-4 of the smaller sets but (...) (24 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.castle)

| (...) The Ninja Theme was what got me into the Castle Theme and I am still a die-hard ninja fan. Certainly I am not impressed with the offerings in the Ninja Theme and the structures but I can say the minifigs are very well done and the specialized (...)

| (...) I consider them to be real Castle Lego. If fantasy-oriented sets like Fire Breathing Fortress and Fright Knights is considered Castle, then there's plenty of room for Ninjas.
