I hate Walmart. Except when I can get a big ass castle for $10. I picked up mine at the store tonight. It was a great deal but now the price is back up to $72.

Got a shipping notice for both of my castles... in two shipments. dunno, don't care :)

The boxes are pretty big. I'm fairly certain that they cost more to ship than the actual price that was paid for the castle.

The first wave I ordered came in last week. I had them shipped to me and each one came in a separate shipping order. The second wave I did the ship to store and picked those up last Friday.

Wave three is still in processing, i got a notice that they are working with the supplier to try to fill it. That one may end up getting canceled.

Holy shitsnax, you guys ain't kidding! I just got my first castle, and thought both were somehow in the same box, but nope. Yeah, you'd have to take pics as you peel back the layers for that to be any help! I don't have time to crack it open today, but I will tomorrow and I'll see if I can take some pics to help.

Man, you just know somebody at WM.com got fired for putting the decimal point over one too many places when they listed what likely was supposed to be a $99.99 sale price.

I built my Schleich Castle last night to take some up close pictures of all the pieces. I think I'm going to need a bigger table if I want to expand it with the other castles I got. I still have to wait a couple weeks to open any more so we can give our daughter hers for her birthday. I already gave her the 2 guys that came with this one though. I added my Wizard tower since it will be an integral part of the whole castle.

This one is from a line called Creepy Crawlers from Jakks Pacific







This one is the Creepy Crawlers Operation X-Ray set I got from Amazon for a little under $9.


They have some other great looking equipment in that line.

Some pretty cool stuff there!

This reminds me we have one of those bug maker toys...we need to get that thing out and use it. Stinks to high heaven when it's "baking".

I had the original incarnation from the T2 days, but this one looks like it would be more useful for our scale.

I had a great goodwill trip last week. Picked up the Loving Family Sweet sounds house for $5. It needs some renovations but I couldn't pass it up for $5. I also got another smaller house, a Scooby Doo haunted house, and a Playmobile pirate ship.

DioWarriors has the skeletons for $10.

Hey Drop, imagine what I could do with that dollhouse there, with all the 1:18 bric-a-brac I have in that Schelich thing.
