    This is another nice small castle set that is useful for army building. Below are the details.

    Price: RM29.90
    Pieces: 54 (around 55sen/piece)
    Minifigs: 3
    Year released: 2007

    Box art:
    Front:


    Side:
    We got a skeleton to estimate the size of the minifig.


    Back:
    The back is just another shot of those to guy fighting no alternate model or so.


    Content:
    There are 2 packet of bricks and a instruction booklet.


    Instruction booklet:
    As always, there will be a bricks checklist, other than just building steps.

    Weapons:
    We got crossbows, shield, sword and axe.


    Minifigs:
    We got three minifigs here, two human soldier and a white skeleton. The human minifigs got their front torso printed only.




    White Skeleton Horse:
    Skeleton horse are all dead horse, so the head can't move as well.


    Crossbow:
    This is the main course of the set. I can't comment much about it but it seems to be ok for me.
    Random shot:


    Front:


    Side:


    Rear:


    Top:


    Just pull this trigger and let go, and it will fire the arrow.


    Extra part:
    We got the skeleton arm as a spare part.


    Completion:

    This set is a good set to build your army too and the good news is that it is cheap and affordable for a great amount of minifig and a skeleton horse. The crossbow itself is not bad too.

    Functions:
    -firing mecahnism
    -moving crossbow wheel

    Pros:
    -lots of minifig
    -extra ammo for crossbow

    Cons:
    -few weapons


    Final verdict:
    Playability: 9/10 . At least there are playability like pull back fire  Shocked.
    Design : 9/10 The design is quite nice, not sure if it's real or not, but I just like it.
    Price : 9/10 Nice pricing for this set as we get 3 minifigs and a skeleton horse!
    Overall: 9/10 This is the cheapest to build army and you got everything included for you both side, skeleton horse and crossbow.

    Great small set!

    Not only do you get 2 heavily armed guys with a large crossbow, you all get a skeleton on a skeleton horse to use as target practice!

    Then if the imperial flagship need more cannons, can improvise and use this crossbow instead.  Wink
