the castillins are way better if you're into castles. I've got a set from
Long Ago (sorry, not for sale). I find that they don't hold together as well
as Legos, but the curves and crenelated tops are way better....
the lego castles re pretty poor in my opinion. They're limited to orthagonal
(right angle) construction. If you use a lot of hinges, you can make
octagons or such for "round" towers, but that gets expensive quick (and
leaves gaps in the tower walls)...
As a side not, I'm working on a large lego castle now... I'm still in the
early design stages, but I'll post sketches and piece counts as they
develop...
