6. Which Castle subtheme has the best figs?

Just out of curiousity, I noticed that a couple of people felt that the
Fright Knights was the best subtheme.  Now, personally, I *hated* the Fright
Knights.  They almost singlehandly put me in my Lego Dark Ages while they
were out (with Ninja bringing me back into the fold).  I basically disliked
them because they were the most cartoonish Castle subtheme Lego ever put
out.  Although it was really cool getting black dragons for cheap, I didn't
much care for the witches, bat helms, shield logos, etc.

So I'm wondering - what about Fright Knights did you like?

(This message is not a flame in any way - just curious to see what other
people saw in it.  Perhaps it would make me better appreciate the Fright
Knights that I own.)

Thanks,

Jimmy

(...) I won't say that I thought it was the best, but it wasn't .bad. Lots of 2x2x?? black columns, the arches as others have said, the crystal ball, black dragons (as you said), I even like the large green plates to a degree - though actual base (...) (23 years ago, 2-Mar-01, to lugnet.castle)

Hi everybody. :-) I thought it would be fun to have a mini-fig survey. I had two different things in mind for this survey, so I used two different terms to better express what I was asking. A “character” is a fig that you have given a name, a (...) (23 years ago, 27-Feb-01, to lugnet.castle)
