  1. I had these as a kid. I loved them.

    I had both little castles and a few of the figures. I think they had small glow-in-the-dark weapons.

    I wonder if they had anything to do with the Albert Pyun film that came out around the same time? (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sword_and_the_Sorcerer)

    Love the site by the way!

    yr pal,

    1. Thanks! Glad you enjoy the site. I think I read that there was some tie-in with the movie, but I'm not sure how much of one beyond the name.
