5757 = 3269 is the same colour (but a different building system).

I think 5979 is a different shade of grey, but haven’t checked.

Hi Andi!
As I have a few of these sets myself, I can confirm that the 5725 Knight's Castle is all black (except for windows and floor pieces) unlike any other Steck castles, as far as I am aware.  5738 Catapult Castle has regular gray Steck walls with black buttresses, a black gate (with blue trim), and black trim pieces on the towers.  :)

Sorry for not being clear enough, Customizer.

I wanted to say that 5725 is of the exact same colour as 5757. I added the information that 5757 and 3269 are basically the same castle, but that is really beside the point. Their common colour is generic dark grey, also known in German as Anthrazit; I would not want to call it black, as Indianna does.

5979 is also dark grey but slightly different from the rest. It is darker still.

I can provide a daylight comparison picture, if that is helpful.

. . . . I can provide a daylight comparison picture, if that is helpful.

That would be really useful, I think, StJohn!   I don't have any of the System X castles to compare to 5725 so I, too, would like to know if those Systems X sets are the same color.   :)

Anthrazit is anthracite in English. It's also a stone used in jewellery. It might be the same colour as 'gun metal' but might be darker too.

Isn't anthracite a type of coal? I'm pretty sure that our boiler was fuelled by anthracite when I was a child  :lol:
