    6085 Black Monarch's Castle compared with 6091 King Leo's Castle —Kerry Raymond
   I just finished building the 6085 Black Monarch's Castle and I was most impressed. This is an older set (1988) that I got on ebay and was definitely worth getting. I'm surprised it doesn't get more rave reviews in the notes on lugnet: (URL) also (...) (23 years ago, 1-Oct-01, to lugnet.reviews)
   
        Re: 6085 Black Monarch's Castle compared with 6091 King Leo's Castle —Bruce Schlickbernd
   Thanks for the review and comparison. I've been considering getting a 6085, and I've also been keeping a wary eye on 6091 if I can find it at extreme discount.

     (...) no need to wish, just make it bigger, isn't that what makes lego's so much fun? (22 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.reviews)
   
        Re: 6085 Black Monarch's Castle compared with 6080 King's Castle —David Kohrman
   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 (...) (22 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.reviews)
