Re: How Much Fantasy Do You Want in the Next Castle Theme?

Re: What is the first LEGO set you remember?

My first set was 455 Learjet: http://www.peeron.com/inv/sets/455-1 Before we had our own sets we were building with family Lego sets from the 1960s. My first castle sets were 6010 Supply Wagon and 6030 Catapult. Later I received 6080 King's Castle, a personal favorite of mine. http://www.classic-cas...

Great categories; I'm looking forward to entering. One question: Must borders be within baseplate size requirements or can we have for example a border into which fits a 32x32 baseplate? Thanks! 8.

Re: Collecting vintage misb castle sets

I actually do not know much about that polybag in question. The lion printing does look accurate for a circa 1984 figure. Quite a few rare items do not always make it into set databases.
