Knights From The Past
« on: April 02, 2012, 20:14:56 »
I was having a look on Ebay a couple of weeks ago and happened to spot these 2 little fellas who I won  :knight:



I was very excited as the fella with the black hair is just like the Knight well Prince technically that I had as a kid all be it the helmets are not the same (he would have come with a golden crown with a triangle on the front originally) and one of the swords is different but, it's a darn sight good enough for me. He was one of my favourite figures as a kid but, I lost him somewhere and the only part I have left is his hair piece which the Eagle Eyed amongst you will notice my Mechanic is now wearing, looking at these figures now I can totally understand why I loved them so much.



Of course my Knight was eager to meet the new guys even if he doesn't know that they're technically Princes  ;D ;)

     

He wanted to try on some of the helmets I'd still like to get him a shield, helmet, spurs and black dog like he wold have originally come with and poossibly a beard but, he looks cool for now ...

 

... all be it a bit like a shark

Those are some cool knights. Unfortunately, I don't have any of that style though. Nice buys, DrDalek6! ;)

Thanks here's his details says he was first released in 1994 till 1997 which sounds about right to me I would have been about 3 when he was first released and the first photos I have of him which I'll try to upload at some point were taken when we were celebrating my sisters birthday which would have been about July 1996

That's nice that you got back some figures that you used to have. And your knight is getting more equipment. :lol:

You're makin' me feel old...   :P

That was the best era for knights figures (1990's).

Good find, by the way.

Well it#s not hard after all I'm only about 20  ;) ;D I'm used to it most of the staff and thinking about it volunteers I work with at the Botanics, City Centre and BTCV are in their 40's, 50's some of the F.O.B.S. older still, anyway I can only speak really of my era and afterwards I'll always view it from a biased stand point it's such a cool theme  :)

That seems like a very unique crown though. You ought to see if you can order one from DS; you never know what they might have lying around. :lol:
