    Details:
    Price: RM59.90
    Pieces: 123 (around 49sen/piece)
    Minifigs: 4
    Year released: 2007

    Box art:


    Content:
    Inside the box is two packet of bricks (which is really packed for the small one) and an instruction book.

    Instruction book:
    The instruction books not only include the building steps, but also brick checklist as usual and some castle advertisement at the very last page of it.

    Weapons:
    Talking about the weapons, this set include us with even more weapons although some are attach to the barricade. On the right is the boulder for the use of the catapult.

    Minifigs:
    So who's in this set? A black skeleton (which used to be very rare before the chess set is release), a white skeleton with shiny helmet, and two footman. As you can see, footman only got the front torso printed.

    Barricade:
    The barricade is actually quite simple, although it is small and thin, it do looks nice. Maybe because of the shield and spears. However, the skeleton have to stand on the platform to fire it's crossbow.



    Catapult:
    The catapult is quite flexible actually, as there is no front or back here. The catapult can rotate 360 degree and fire any you feel like to fire at. Also it carries two small shield for the footman.



    The two pictures below shows the rotating function of the catapult:

    Extra parts:
    In this set, we get a little more extra piece to spare just in case you lost them and/or broke them.

    Completion:
    I would say this is a nice set too as the catapult looks good so do the barricade. While from the point of view of minifigs, I don't like it that much, maybe there is no horses.

    Functions:
    -rotatable catapult
    -firing catapult
    -moving wheels

    Pros:
    -a lot of weapons

    Cons:
    -skeletons

    Final verdict:
    Playability: 7/10 Is quite a function that this set has to be play with.
    Design: 9/10 The design for both of the things looks nice.
    Price: 7/10 Reasonable.
    Overall: 8/10 Nice to play with.
