“This was the also included in the all castle value pack (1597) and I really like it, you get a printed archery target, a shrub and a reasonably well equipped minifigs. A nice compact set, have a couple of these in your castle courtyard and your really onto something.”

“Despite my fond memories of this little set, I have to admit that it's one of the weaker Castle sets that I owned. As a whole, there's almost no way to do much in terms of an alternate build. Furthermore, with only one figure you can't even have a mini battle. And, of... More course, a lot of imagination is required to see if your little archer ever hits his target!”
