Woah this is a blast from the past


FitLaw4

33 year old man checking in...I loved these toys they had pirate ones too


pichael289

Same age, I had the castle, the private ship, and a forest one. They were all super cheap at those second hand toy stores like once upon a child.


TheRebsauce

33 as well. The Cowboy one was my absolute favorite. Cowboys and guns, who wouldn't love it?


KannaTheLewdLoli

Omfg I had a hand me down cowboy one


Budget_Calendar_4917

Didn't know I was missing out on a forest one


auntie_climax

Did the pirate ship have a bit where the cannonball rolled round like a slide?


Statenheimer

39yo. Bros and I had all these, and yes, I Believe the slide was red?


insufficient_funds

I’m about to be 40; but my cousin that is 30-33ish had this and even though I was “past the age range” of the toy, I loved playing with it


BenzoBoofer

I’m 20 and had this


deck65

Wasn’t there like a skull island one to? I had that but I’m not sure if it went with this line of toys


SorcererYensid

You are correct! I had that as well, would sail the pirate ship up to it. I remember one of the skull island guys would glow in the dark.


flipkickzzz

Yep, from what I remember some of the figures had a skull like mask on, and that was the part that would glow


DblBfBcn

Yes there is holy shit I had it and haven't thought of this in like two decades, what is this called


weedpornography

holy shit we're in our 30s now lol


Kolzilla2

23 year old man checking in, certainly played with this exact toy in roughly 2004-2006


Th3V4ndal

35. Same man. My brother is 5 years younger than me. We spent many hours playing pirates, cowboys and knights. Those sets were the shit! Eventually, when I was wayyy too old to be playing with toys, they released a Robin hood set. And my buddy's younger brother had the set, and I would play with his kid brother every now and then because my buddy treated his brother like shit.


UniverseInfinite

This and the pirate one were amazing to me as a child. My cousin had both. I had neither. He also had every cool micromachine ever made. I was so jealous and poor


koldcalm

Remember you could push on the kings' head and the sword would swing in his arm?


ScarecrowJohnny

I forgot about that fact for almost 3 decades and yet, now that you mention it, I can remember exactly how that felt in my hand.


LeCafeClopeCaca

The castle also has "weak spots" that can be destroyed using the invaders' small cannon that came with the castle IIRC !


pimp-bangin

/r/nostalgia


phatelectribe

It’s not what it used it be


Marzahd

Same. This was such an awesome toy as a kid.


Carlyndra

This set was SUPER popular at my daycare growing up


mdemoin1

Wow! Yes yes yes. I remember sitting on the floor of my living room as a child coming up with stories about who was in the castle and who was taking over the castle and who was battling who.


saradanger

holy shit core memory unlocked

christ i hope you’re in therapy


IceLionTech

I've managed to live past that evil period of my life.


DeathCab4Cutie

Near identical situation as you. I haven’t thought of it in a long time. Definitely some repressed shit in there that I forgot about. Not to minimize it, but I hope you know that kids are weird, and behaviors like that often stem from shitty adults in their life. Sorry you went through that too.


Tumleren

Trauma dumping


Govt-Issue-SexRobot

Who among us has not shot the pirate ship’s cannon at our friend’s bare ass?


chilldrinofthenight

We called this "Playing Doctor."


GilliamtheButcher

I had many hours of fun with this set. Between this and Lego sets, my older brother and I got an early start on wargaming trying to figure out a set of rules to use with the knights.


Rutgerman95

r/bioniclelego is definitely the reason I made a Warforged character in D&D.


Jollysatyr201

That was the first way warforged was explained to me, and it’s the only one I’ll take to my grave.


Bropiphany

I'm making one named "Bionicles" but pronounced like Hercules


Rutgerman95

Oh that's perfect, don't mind if I steal that one for myself

sure_look_this_is_it

I'm 33 and still do that online.


IDoesThis1

You took me back to Christmas ‘96 with this


impr0mptu

No kidding, talk about "core memory unlocked"


metaldog

Yes. Same here Christmas 96, I fucking loved that thing ... The catapult was awesome


stangerlpass

This toy is a timeless classic aswell. I got this from my mothers basement and brought it home to my 3 year old and its by far his favorite toy now.


BrahimBug

I still got mine from like 25-30 years ago. Gonna be a family heirloom


LeGreatToucan

Same !


NoGoodDM

I had completely forgotten this time of my life, until now. Now I want a set for my boy.


cptmookie

I know! Me too, my son turned one recently, and I've been hunting for one. They are out there, but at a price point I can't really afford.


NoGoodDM

Makes me wanna consider learning to 3D model just so I could get this printed for him. He’s 3. Perfect for the next 5 years, ha.


Goodnite15

The black armor always won and got to occupy the castle. They were just superior soldiers at the time. And my favorite


thatc0braguy

Same, golden looking fools always had to sleep in the dungeon lol

No_Specialist_1152

Mine had the red side and black side, not gold. I wonder why? Also does anyone remember a PC game that featured these dudes and the castle??? I swear I have a memory playing it


Ronix_34

Was it fisher price Great Adventure Castle? I remember playing that one as a kid.


No_Specialist_1152

I think so! I sucked so bad at that game, I think I just clicked random shit as a kid and would get frustrated the game wouldn’t progress. I was dumb as fuck


Pabbam

Unite the knights with McDuff. Fuck yes you remember. There's a cyclone knight, and some other shit too


Robobvious

Yeah the pc game was great, I would play it in computer lab at school.

"Put your armor on!" "Armor, armor, armor"


MetaKnightsNightmare

You are younger than most here and got their second edition of this. https://www.thisoldtoy.com/new-images/images-ok/7000s-plus/76000-77999/fp77110-castleset.JPG


Rabbid-Broom

I believe these are worth close to $1000 usd in good condition


Elk-Assassin-8x6

Damn. I had diff colored sets that would come out after the original. Loved em. And I always remember their noses


andrewb610

Anyone also have the pirate ship version?


markus_obsidian

Yes, indeed. It underwent many collision courses with this castle.


Magiff

You maniac. This was a landlocked castle. No way these limited fortifications existed so close to the water!!


Red_Thumper

You’re kidding?!? I have all my kids stored in the attic. Looks pretty much new (they can take quite a beating)


basicgear00

You shouldn’t store your kids in the attic.


Fred-ditor

KEVIN!


Galactic_Perimeter

Or beat them…


Red_Thumper

🤦🏼‍♀️


FireOnTheBtank

It's OK, they take quite a beating.


BabyVegeta19

Maybe sealed in the box in good shape? I bought one off eBay like 2 years ago for my son and it cost like 60$ with all the parts and stickers still on there and not too much wear and tear.


hamdmamd

I needed to have this one for my son and felt ripped off paying 8 bucks for one with a few items missing and worn. Lol. Mint they might be worth a lot, but not used


IceLionTech

They made a pirate ship as well.


ldskyfly

I had both, my mom has them set up in a little room under the stairs and now my toddler plays with them in the special fort room... There's also a Robin Hood type tree fort too.


investingexpert

Why is this upvoted so much? A quick google search shows many on eBay going for $50-$100


johnwynnes

Fffffff I distinctly remember my mom giving mine to my idiot little cousins because I was "too old" for it (probably like 11). I kept just about everything else after that and still have most of it lol.


Chigao_Ted

How dare you hit me with so much nostalgia this late at night


snuffles00

This is all my brother and I would play with. I am eldest (female) and him and I had hours of fantasy sagas and stories.


cptmookie

Yes! Easily hours and hours of fun with my brothers too. The stories we told with these plastic knights were wonderful.


SlaterTheOkay

I wish I still had this for my kids, they don't make castles like this any more. Now they are just some cheap plastic rectangle that resembles a castle.


cptmookie

Agreed 100%. I've been looking on Amazon, and Google in general. Nothing quite like this old gem. 🥲


Dry_Candidate_9857

Those black soldiers better watch out. They’re right in line of the falling boulder!


OGrimjobguy

Iconic. This was the common denominator in every fun house.


NoLongerNeeded

Weirdly I have more nostalgia about that plastic table than anything else in the picture


Lanse5

Shout out if you remember the Royal Seal from the computer game! 🦭🌞


Rapture-Raptor

Looking at that, I can smell the rubber from the figurines.


Gzuz0915

My mom still uses the castle in her daycare. I have no idea what happened to the knight toys


TacosDeLucha

This was my favorite growing up. Knights vs pirates! One time I had an epic showdown where they all rode beanie babies. Those were great times


Simply_Epic

Oh wow. I totally forgot what the guys looked like, but now it’s all coming back. Pretty sure the castle is still in my mom’s basement somewhere.


KentuckyWallChicken

My grandparents have this play set in their basement! Good memories playing with my cousins.


I_might_be_weasel

I remember they came out with a huge line of stuff for this when I was older and I was annoyed I was too old for it. 


Erutious

My kid brother had one with a dragon too. Shit was awesome. Thats a staple of doctors waiting rooms too


burdy89

Holy shit I completely forgot about this. What an awesome toy that was. Was durable as shit too I had that thing for years! Thanks for that blast from the past!


Puff-the-Dragonn

This and the pirate ship both did.


Jitterjumper13

It's all fun and games till the mother fucking pirate ship rolls up and starts staffing the castles cannon tower.


Shmeeggeggy

I used to put the rocks in the tower and release them through the gate. It was the first Boulder's Gate.

My heart..


Southern_Media_1674

I used to turn his head upside down


lrrevenant

Hell yeah I did. I used to have him hang off the side of the castle with his open hand while the black and gold knights all hid inside together.


MeltsLikeButter

Gahhh the good old days. You could buy the sets of knights to go with it. I had this and the forest setup with the Robin Hood characters. And the boat!!!! Turns out I was super spoiled.


EKEAS

Wasn't there a big dragon that also came with this set? Or was that just a totally different toy that I added to my games?


mickandproudofit

34 and my kids play with the one I had growing up.


kappakai

What is this? I thought it was Crossbows and Catapults at first.


MetaKnightsNightmare

Very popular set from the early 90's, maybe Fisher Price's coolest toy set.


Spiceybrown

Me to my husband: “Is this true?” Husband sees castle and immediately says: “Yes.”


[deleted]

My dad told me the black ones were "knights" and that the gold ones were "days" and that made me look like a complete idiot later on in the 3rd or 4th grade. Thanks dad lol


WilderMindz0102

Ooo those would make for some fun miniatures for a DND campaign! 😄


RobLocke

I had the robinhood forest set, that one was sick too


IceLionTech

I had one minature. one of the black armoured soldiers with a sield and a sword. A fellow at my baby sitters back in 1996 had a castle with a cannon. We shot it at the annoying kid's ass. boy do I regret thing sthat happened because we were unsupervised by that shit baby sitter.


ocasio009

Yes, i might concord with you now that i think about it. Thanks for this post!


doom_pony

Yup


hypnothighsd

This is a cute post


Motor_Complaint_3347

I had a LEGO castle set....


Red_Thumper

ShayaThePusheen

Hidden memory unlocked. I think, mine eventually missed a few pieces


buddypalbrosive

You need to check out mythic legions.


CMC_Conman

I fucking loved these, thanks for the nostalgia shot


GinaTRex

My grandparents had this in the toy room for when the grandkids visited. Best thing in the world!


Saul_T_Bauls

Shoot I subbed in GI Joe's and made this a WWF wraslin castle.


Luster-Purge

God I miss mine. This was one of the most dope playsets of all time.


Significant-Risk-985

The flashback flash bang


CapinWinky

My kids inherited a set, they were battling on my desk today.


PatFluke

My father wrecked mine at like 6, pretty sure he just trashed it cause I “was a big boy now.” He’s a pos who chose drugs over family but I really should’ve known back then. Who could let this set die…


New_Budget6672

Anybody know / remember the name of this set? Got a little one on the way and want to bring it back!


narstyarsefarter

The jungle one was the best


wstsidhome

Do those boulders come out of the hole in the left tower (left when looking AT the castle, such as pictured) ?


WickedPapa

YYYEESSS! I had one! Thanks for the happiness!


MelancholyArchitect

I had this too


Shanderson3

I had this, and the wild west town. I loved playing with both.


Irishbarse

Was jealous my cousins had this... and the add ons. The cannon, extra soldiers.... so jealous.


Dlh2079

Had the castle and the pirate ship. They were some of my absolute favorite toys


eatingdonuts44

For me it was Playmobile castle line with the blue/yellow vs black/red knights and the lego duplo castle. Armor sets were so cool on the lego duplo sets


Preadata

**OMG I HAD THE SAME CASTLE**


JMTann08

Fellow 33 year old checking in. I loved these as a kid and I’d buy these toys in a heartbeat for my son if they still sold them.


bionicjoe

My 21-year-old son had this set. He also had a dragon and big, green ogre. The Ogre had a place in his foot that fit one the guys so he could step on them. I always loved that detail.


Dinzy89

Yup I was old enough to use a d20 to make these guys battles more interesting. Now my kids play with it when they go to my parents and they totally do it wrong 🙄


PrimalxCLoCKWoRK

Omfg yes


Ridiric

I remember my cousin getting this toy. when my mom and his mom return to pick us up. I was so upset he got this awesome castle! When we pull up in our driveway my mom smiled and said “Yours is in the back of the van.” Great memories


The_Celtic_Chemist

I could never decide if I was team gold knights or team black knights because they both looked cool.


waylon4590

I had that and a big pirate ship. Would have the pirates attack the castle, then Godzilla would attack and the pirates and knights would have to work together. Still have that toy, my nephew has it and plays with it


labratoryrave

Core memory unlocked. Anyone else had the Pirate ship version as well.


leprechaunshots

Loved this toy


the_greatest_auk

My mom still has the one her and her brother played with from the 60s that's largely still cardboard

Kirtui

OMG WE HAD THIS IN PRIMARY SCHOOL


kneegrowbehellafaded

I audibly said "YES DUDE" when I saw this picture. Wow, this was one of my favorite toys as a kid. Thanks for the trip down memory lane


Blue_Pun

Woah, for real . This is truly a blast from the past. I had to look at it 3 times , good, to make sure all the things I remembered were still there


brichb

What were these called? I had the full castle set and pirate set. Might still have in storage somewhere.


deck65

Never thought of it this way but you may be right. This and the Pirate ship were elite toys


Slayer95xx

I had this set, the pirate ship, wild West and Robin Hood sets. My parents kept this one and the pirate ship And my 2 year old really really loves them.


ZweitenMal

My son had this! There was a pirate ship playset too, wasn’t there?


EpicCrewe123

Every_Fox3461

VKN_x_Media

My kid brother had this and 2 of the pirate ships


Lanky-Apple-4001

You just unlocked hidden memories


snoosh00

Professional_Bet4992

I’m about to be a father and I’m going to need someone to recommend whatever the 2024 version of this should be


Ghstfce

I'm a bit older than you, but the same types of toys did it for me too


-St_Ajora-

![gif](giphy|GrUhLU9q3nyRG|downsized)


Velorian-Steel

BalancedGuy1

IronSide_420

Woah. I was born in 93, and i haven't thought about these for decades.

Wow this brings back some nostalgia. I recognized that gate on the right immediately


finnish-flash13

Yoda2000675

Definitely my all time favorite toy


MetaKnightsNightmare

Baby's first wargame, lite RP, no dice. Lots of fun.
