Fisher Price's castle was on my wishlist when I was a wee tot type person. I had a few characters from it, picked out of thrift store sets, and the pink dragon I found in a field...but the whole set has always eluded me, and prolly always will. But it was a brilliant toy design, secret doors and stairs, great graphics, knights and dragons...first rate!
Bodiam, Is one of my favorite real castles. Someone gave me a tour guide book by English Heritage when I was a kid, with plan drawings and detailed explanations. I'd love to build this model...but the price ... I dunno, it is now on my dividend wish list.
a great way to jazz up a gaming space and give it some atmosphere to set the tone...
party supplies, if you will... backdrops, plastic tablecloths with stone pattern, 3d cardboard torch sconces, led candles...some tankards and goblets and you'll feel like storming the castle.
Smurfs, small 1inch ones from france, Bmc has reissued from Marx molds the robinhood, and king arthur accessories, 54mm feasting, etc. Safari has this tube of gnomes now. From Hughton Mifflin comes this king, possibly a marx involved item? This new bucket playset focuses on "monsters" really venomous critters with a few fantasy ones tossed in. And Technolog of Russia is pumping out figures from all eras, 54mm but in a distinctive, almost "games workshop" inspired style.
