Richard, I couldn't agree with you more.  I bought 12 of those Blacksmith Shop
sets back when they first came out (and I am not even into the castle theme) just
for those two glorious red steep sloped corners (and the 1x4 red arches).

We do need more steep slopes, especially corners (black, gray, and yellow!!!).

6040 & 6041 two-pack.  The Blacksmith & Armor Shop.  Two great complimentary
small sets(under $10, originally).  Each with rare elements, such as the
black sword and pitchfork.  Since you are not reissueing the packaging, you
could release them together in one box for one price! • <snip>
6066 - Forestmen.  Another great low-pricepoint set that features 6 of the
highly regarded original Forestmen.  Need I say more?

Man, those are all REALLY excellent choices.  Is it accidental that you
chose a set with the black feathers?

But anyway, those first two sets you mention are about as necessary as the
Guarded Inn.  Once you have some large castles, you really want those
smaller sets to fill out the theme.  I have several of one, none of the
other...it's those red steep corner slopes!

Must have more steep corner slopes...!
