what castle set to get?

Post by Barbapple »

I am waiting for the winter lego shop-at-home catalog, but i know what is in it. Of all the castle things in it which should i get? The blacksmith shop, Black Falcon Fortress, gaurded inn or Castle accessories? Keep in mind, the less money I spend the better...

Well, the Castle accessories are the cheapest set. So get them!

Just to let you know, the Blacksmith Shop is sold out. So if these become available I would get that. All of the sets are pretty good though.

No,

The Castle Accessories 10066 set is the one with the weapons that sadly was made with no armor :cry: . The set you are referring to is the 3732 Castle Expander pack. That one has been around a long time, I'm surprised it hasn't been blown out yet.

Hope they add a new set to make a new castle collection with the Blacksmith being sold out. I was wondering when it would finish its run. Perhaps it will give way to a new My Own Creation set. Or a new castle Legend... Still waiting on that banner year! :wink:

It is currently 1.314, but depending on your credit card company, they may hose you at around 1.33. That works out to .759 or somewhere near. Shouls have looked in to it a few weeks ago it was up around .781. Seems like a small amount, but it adds up when you do bigger purchases.

Exchange rate are approximate, I saw them earlier today when I was watching the news.

Really depends on what you can afford and what you are really looking for.

If you got none of the above, I guess the Guarded Inn is a must.
