I always loved the first playmobil castle, 3450! Spend so many happy hours with my cousin's castle but a couple of years ago, when I asked him if he still had it and if he could give it to me, he said he did not know where it was, he had to look for it and of course, finally that he could not find it anywhere....two possibilities... he could not care enough to look or m aunt probably threw it, or gave it, away... After that 3666 came along but I was not very interested in playmobil anymore...

Today I have 12 3666 castles and I love them!!! So many pieces to use in expanding and customising a bigger catle...even if you use all the wall sections, you still have a medieval house to use by its own!!!

I am in the process of reconstructing a 3450, but the 3666 offers more possibilities!!!

Oops!  I accidentally voted for 3667 when I meant to vote for 3666! :omg:

Although I don't own 3666, it looks good with the round tower.

Maybe when I see 4865 in person it will change my mind, although I don't think I'll like the tab building system.

I voted for 3667,
It was my first castle, and since I don't have a 3666
I can't compare them well. :)

3666 provides the best domestic setup in any of the castles, a factor that has been missing in almost every other castle set. It's easy to add more fighters to any castle, but difficult to get hold of civilians. It is also infinitely customisable and expandable, and the round tower adds a touch of class.

I've collected several 5725 sets, though you can't build a complete castle with one or even two of this set. It was a nice variation of color, but didn't provide all the steck pieces in the dark color, so building options are still slightly limited.

You missed out 5783 which was a small System X castle, and 5803 which is a take along castle.

I almost voted fo 3666, because its such a classic, but I had to go with 4866, the new one, because i think it's really cool. I like the general shape of it, with the "curved" front wall. Lots of features, very imposing looking, and I love the great new colors.

Hi

 The 3666 has the most parts, is the largest castle and is one of the most complete castles available. Being stecks it gives easy expansion possibilities such as the 3445 bell tower or basically any stecks set. It has a living quarters, realistic look as far as walls/colors and it is relatively easy to build . It also came with some peasants which seem to be lacking in so many playmobil sets these days.

My vote is 3666

If you hear the sound of the bell which will tell you that Grigori has been killed, if it was your relations who have wrought my death, then no one in the family will remain alive. They will be killed by the Russian people. :prays:

One of my favourite polls  :)

I voted for 3450! 3666 would come right behind it. To me, the ultimate castle would be a 3666 and its accessories but with 3450's green bull's eye glass windows in it instead of the heraldic tower windows, and with the balcony included.
