Re: Your latest acquisition
After realising I didn't have a Castle Class, I went on the hunt. Ebay wasn't very helpful, either pricey or rough, or much older versions than I wanted. I found this on a website of a bricks and mortar shop, and it looked a nice deal. Missing the accessory pack, but that was mentioned, I can live w...
