Why in God's name would you be on an internet forum if a goofy looking piece of plastic was too scary?

And why on earth do we need to know?

This is a little off topic but...are people here familiar with the dacta hospital (# 9364)? IMO one of the best sets with minifigs ever, incredibly detailed...I saw one on ebay once but had already bankrupted myself by then, courtesy primarily of lego, so I had to let it go. If your'e not acquainted with this set, check it out on lugnet or brickshelf.

But, as for this dacta fright knights set...it don't impress me much!

I dunno... The Dacta Castle set seems kinda juniorized to me. I'm personally not a fan of wall pieces, but that's not the thing that bothers me about this set. I can't quite put my finger on it...

This is a really interesting find... and I think the whole DACTA thing could be a noteworthy place to do some searching... some of the deals are not that bad (while others seem quite high).

But in terms of this DACTA castle set... I would get drool all over my computer and credit card as I bought multiple sets... if it was 20-30 some dollars... but 60 some...?

Like others said... it does seem a little high... but then again I'm not really a MOC pro yet, so there could be some good pieces I'm missing out on.

I don't have the Dacta Castle set, but I DO have the Dacta Hospital
(the lego still in its plastic baggies). And not to brag, but I paid over
$200 for the Ultra Rare Lego set.

I can say from the Dacta hospital, the case is nice, and the cards included
are sharp and worth it, especially if you compare it to today's lego set
instruction standards.

The only real disappointment is lack of "Complete" instructions.

Though, I'm guessing that this is because they want the student to come up
with their own version by using imagination, rather than just building the
set by the instructions.

As I said before, I don't have the Dacta Castle, but I assume it is likewise
"missing" instructions..
