LEGO Set - 6098 - Castle - King's Castle

Here is a piece of history from the LEGO Castle theme: the majestic King Leo's Castle (set 6098) from the year 2000.

This lot isn’t the classic loose set, but a complete “Collector Grade” configuration, ideal for those who want to relive the thrill of the original opening or for a long-term collecting investment.

Lot Highlights:
- Completeness: Verified and complete with all structural components and the rare light gray pieces (Old Light Gray) typical of the era.
- Original Minifigures (8/8): Includes all 8 iconic minifigures from Knights' Kingdom I: King Leo, Queen Leonora, Princess Storm (knight version), Richard the Strong, John of Mayne, the villain Cedric the Bull, Gilbert the Bad, and the Skeleton (jointed arms included).
- Rare Packaging: The original front-flap box is present. The yellow interior is clean and the graphics under the flap are vivid and free from significant discoloration.
- Documentation: Includes the original instruction manual (code 6098/6091), essential for the correct reconstruction of the castle and the alternate models.

Conditions:
The set has been well preserved. The prints on the torsos of the minifigures and on the shields of the “Leo” and “Bull” factions are sharp. The box shows normal and light signs of aging around the edges, which attest to its originality without compromising display aesthetics.
