I bought these for my two sons. Like the other reviewer, we have the Imaginext castle. These figures actually go with a previous "King Arthur" castle made by Fisher-Price. That's why they aren't a perfect match for the updated Imaginext castle. That doesn't get in the way of my boys' imaginations. They love the King Arthur tales, and they are familiar with Sir Gawain and the Green Knight. The figures are plus to their already active imaginations, and they love staging battles. I wish Fisher-Price hadn't officially discontinued them. I love the fact that the kids can play with "literary" figures.

we bought the Imaginext Castle Christmas 2006 and ever since then my sons been asking for more things to go with it. But when I got these I was so disappointed.They don't really go with the castle because the feet are to small and can't work the platforms.The figures are made out of a cheaper plastic and the swords are easily bend, the helmets don't fit right at all, and the detailes on the figures are a very poor paint job.Not at all like the figures that came with the castle or the other additional packages we bought.Of cause my boys still play with them, but I can tell they sure prefer the original figures. The difference sure surprised me since all of them are imaginext and fisher price, but I didn't get a chance to call about it yet. Maybe there are two different production lines out and the difference can be told by the UPC or somehow else.Overall, I am extremely disappointed and wouldn't buy them again if I had the choice
