If you want to get an idea of what LEGO has done in castle before,
take some time and search the Lugnet/Pause Database for "Castle"
it'll take a bit of time to load but should return all the different
known sets... errrmmm actually for the older series try the
"Fibblesnork LEGO Guide" available from the "new" www.Lugnet.com
page, just scroll down. About the only things that
Fibblesnork/Lugnet/Pause databases may be some of the promotional or
overseas sets (these would be mostly the newer ones if any are
missing).
