I guess you mean before the 90's, Dir Avenger ?
Saddles were introduce in 1984.

In contrast of many peoples here, I never know there was 2 clips saddles until last year!!!(until my dark age last) :lol: Every horse I had before my dark age came from before 1990. I don't know which one I prefer, but I tend to be nostalgic too (like Ben) :) and prefer the one clip saddle. But it's...

Yes Ben, on carpet that doesn't make a big difference...

I always thank that the connection between 1/3 plate to baseplate wasn't intelligent. I prefer the 1/3 plate solution. To resolve my problem, I made a 6080 with green plates instead of baseplate. I'll try one day to make a 6085 with plate too. :)

This set is not as great as 6055 for me. I think there is too much horse in 6055 however, and not enough for 6042. 2 horse cart could have been good in both set 6042 and 6055.

The color are nice, and the design is original.
I like it.

It lack an archer.

It's a nice set, but far from a great one. Pieces in this set are useful, except that there is again another ghost. TLC put a ghost in almost every sets between 1990 and 1993. They are not very useful. This is fun to have at least one, but not in all set.

I agree with you Ben. Santis has the same bad face as the shadow knights. That's put confusion, but confusion is always a good reason to create your own story. :D Maybe Santis is a spy of the shadow knights... Just say to your brother that the line between good and bad is not so clear...In real life...

About the subject, I'm not agree that 1974 is the worste set before 1990. It's one of the nicier, but it's not very solid. That the weak point. Many people think that 6016 is the worst. I'm not agree again. It's not the more appealing but it's well done. The worste for me is 6017. I think it's an ug...

Thanks for the precision Architect. This is Lion Knights and not Crusaders. Crusader is not a faction name. Back to subject. 6022 is a good set. I like all the piece in this set. The round shield are really nice. I'd like to have more of these. A good assortiment of weapons. A nice selection of figu...

This is a great minifig. She is unique. She is alone too, as the pirate girl. I'd like to see more girl in Lego sets.

The green hat is really cool. Hope they would have make more like this.

The KK2 line remind me of a television serie name Xcalibur. It's actually playing here in Quebec. It's made by computer and it's kind of mix of castle and knight with futuristic inspiration castles. Maybe Xcalibur is playing in other country... Did someone know what I'm talking about ? :? Anyway, wh...

A mule or a donkey is something interesting too, but I don't think that the piece x578 could be use for a jester's hat. The shape doesn't look like a hat.

This set is far from a great design. There is no possibility to build something else with this set. I don't like the big green baseplate at all. They are too big. Ok, they can be useful for lanscaping, but as a set it's ugly. And they called it dunjeon !!! This is not a dunjeon. The main minifig is ...
