As a kid I remember trawling through Lego booklets counting the different sets I REALLY wanted. There were always these big big castles that I wished I had, but I never actually got. I remember the Christmas when I simply couldn't decide if I wanted (...) (23 years ago, 28-Jan-02, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.castle, lugnet.dear-lego)

IMHO 6080 is the better of the two sets. Here are my reasons. 6080 is built on a larger baseplate. The two plates in the back of the 6085 are 16x16 while those of 6080 are 16x24 I believe. The castles cover the same area but 6080 has more plate in (...) (23 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.reviews)

I'd agree that 6085 is more aesthetically attractive that 6080, but doesn't it bother anyone else that 6085 is essentially a remake of an old set? I mean, even the dungeons are in the same corner on both castles. You would have thought they could (...) (23 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.reviews)

In lugnet.loc.au, Richie Dulin writes in praise of RBRs and rightly so. Its a lemon of a ship, a sodden, gap jointed, high riding, under-gunned, badly strung tub, destined for Davey Jones' Locker on her first encounter with anything more (...)

Ahoy! I noticed TRU Chatswood still had a few of these left at the pre-Christmas price of $A109, and after umming and ahhing for a while I decided to purchase one. I knew its reputation as the worst of the large ships, its dinky battle damage (...) (23 years ago, 20-Jan-02, to lugnet.loc.au, lugnet.pirates, lugnet.reviews)

It's a good contrast with the two other 4561 reviews we have: (URL) by Mark Herzburg and (URL) by Bradley Dale It is always fascinating to see how different folks like and dislike different things.
