Euro Dream Castle

Complete Dream Castle with red felt banners (also known as the Euro Dream Castle). This particular set in the picture included Spike very similar to the regular Dream Castle Spike.

Note: All the items in these pictures are original from the complete set with red felt banners. Picture of the complete set is on the right. This set includes the darker color shades of blues and yellows and the goblets are a little bit green, but these color differences could be just a coincidence.

Lavender Dream Castle

"Colors of product are different from those shown."

This set was released in 1989 ( Year 7). The major difference with this release is that the castle is now a lavender colour and the colour of the accessories has changed. Also spike has changed to a different shade or purple with this release.

The box the Lavender Castle came in was very similar to the box the pink castle was came in. This box had the same image (ie of the pink castle, rather then the lavender one it actually contained), but with small text "Colors of product are different from those shown.". Also, the box was slightly smaller.

It came with:
