I agree with Aaron. These will draw a lot of my Lego money away. I bought a
couple of the Battle Chests (9861 Bronze Knights & 9862 Silver Knights) and a
9871 Dragon Slayer this week. The dragons are a little awkward, but the rest of
the stuff offers tons of options (a castle builder's dream!!!).
31 different knights (well OK, 31 different heads, 2 body styles)
19 different weapons
2 different shields with each having at least 2 colors
2 different colored horses
5 different banners (I think)
3 different siege weapons (I am still thinking about these)
I don't know how many different burps there are, but I plan to use them all!
These might be the coolest castle sets I've ever seen!!! I hope they inspire
Lego to better stuff.
