0016 Castle Minifigures was a 6 piece Castle set with 3 minifigs released in 1979. This is one of the first Castle minifigure sets. The set includes three knight minifigures all with different symbols and different color pieces and each with a short sword. It was originally released by Samsonite in Canada.

It is a very rare set to be found new and in factory sealed condition. In fact, The LEGO Group does not even have one in their vault although LEGO does have copies of the town and space versions of 0016 in the vault.
Castle Minifigures (set 0016-1) is an extremely old and rare LEGO set. It has not been seen for sale online or in retail stores in good/new condition in over 2 years. Due to its rarity, the current estimated value of $2.99 may be much lower than its true value, assuming it can be found for sale. As this set was released in 1979, finding it sealed and in good condition is particularly challenging, likely driving its true value even higher.

“The first basic army building set (one of many in the future) this set was released in 1978, it’s a nice simple 3 figure set which was actually released fully assembled in a clear plastic box with a cardboard back, rather than the boxes we all know and love.”

“This pack of three minifigures was released by Samsonite in Canada, probably in 1981. It is extremely rare and includes two set 383 soldiers and one 677 soldier. The castle pack was released concurrently with 0016 Space and 0016 Town minifigure packs.”
