“This set was actually part of a value pack and as such it could not be bought on its own. The catapult is small but effective and comes with a weapon rack for the warrior’s spare flag and spear, a very nice little set.”

“Overall, it is very useful and the catapult works correctly, making the playability good for a small set, but it still being very small. It is nice for Castle fans, but due to the rarity, it is now a bit more expensive than it was.”
