About Castle Classic
The Classic Castle minifigures are among the first LEGO knights, from the years the minifigure was new. The knights of the 1978 yellow castle have plain torsos with vests made from stickers in their faction's colour, red, blue, black or white. Later figures from the Knights' Tournament sets have printed tunics and helmets with visors, along with a prince and a princess.
