Sea serpents little brother. I like it, though mostly for nostagia The whole shield "problem" never bothered me, i got a shield, great! but that was it. i don't the design is too bad, though it looks a bit heavy for its size. At the time this was a great source for crossbows, now ofcourse ...

a good source of those heavy wheels (good for realy heavy siege engines), and a lot of extra weapons, if you need crossbows and hallbarts wich i do not, and the fig is nice, the helmet though is crap. A great army builder... I dit not buy any of these and as a result i only have one of those bull ba...

After years with only Fright Knights and Ninja, KK1 was most welcome, and this set being the cheapest way of getting my hands on those great helmets and at the time I thought those torsoes were quite cool, so i bought about ten of these, later on however i lost interest in those torsoes and gave the...

I do not remember my first set, Nor am I perfectly sure wich was the the first castle set 6012 siege cart or 6039 twin arm launcher, but most likely it was the siege cart, anyway both set sets are very special to me, and now I have a few of each assembled.

you are right of course, I meant no offence.
my point bieng only that more kings do not have to be a bad thing.
As for me,I only have one king and he does wear a crown, I loathe the bloody thing and the silly oversized crome sword :)

apart from the crown and the the crome sword, I kind of like this set. he makes a great cavalryman if you replace the crown with something else, or a herold. as to the quetion of how many kings you need, there is many possebillities, how about this- King Canute is a Danish king but he also rules Dan...

My first large castle set, greatly loved and played with. in my mind the best forestmen set. That it can be opened for play rather than just being hollow in the back is great, and the that you can enter (or escape) it from the river by boat or by swimming is exellent, makes for great play, this Lion...

I for one have long wished for a viking theme, and though it is far from perfect (Poor design and the horned helmet cliché) it is only to be expectet, the myth of hornet helmets and oversized weapons are not easily killed, guess it. buy a great merrit this theme however are the shields, well at leas...

The biggest i have seen this far is the black knights ship and that has nothing to rival it. this is not a verry good set, but I guess i...
