I'm glad one of us PFs got it! It was a good price. I was going back and forth about it, I have done so about that set for years. Thanks for the photos of your purchase!

Now the question we all really want to know: what are you going to use the swan mat as? Doormat or blanket?  ???

I always assumed it was meant to be a floor rug as the base of the tent is flat plastic and kind of boring looking. The larger tent has a big mat but this smaller tent has this little one.
Nice finds there, it's another of those sets that made the 90s era such a great one for the Knights theme.

Blanket surely. Fits the bed perfectly. I doubt they ever considered floor mats with insignias in the medieval ages.. not to mention knights wiping their boot on the insginia of a knight !!!!!   :o :o :o

I've never seen that swan doormat before either, Macruran, and I live on eBay!

After living on eBay a bit more, I now have a Swan bedspread. And a spare. Anyone want one?
At that moment the ship suddenly stopped rocking and swaying, the engine pitch settled down to a gentle hum. 'Hey Ford.' said Zaphod, 'that sounds good. Have you worked out the controls on this boat?' 'No,' said Ford, 'I just stopped fiddling with them.' (With thanks to Douglas Adams)

These sets represent the golden era of medieval playmobil. Never again were so many diverse and complex sets available with a great use of colors and parts..... best medieval sets even supwrceded tge late 70s boom of steck medieval houses and nuremberg guards.... magic !!!
