Joseph Svec III, a good friend and fellow collector I know is thinning out his collection.  These fantasy playsets are just a small faction of Joseph's collection of toy castles and knights.  He is the author of "Toy Castles and Knights: A Guide to Toy Castles & Knights from all Around the World," which is the best guide book for toy knights, castles and medieval playsets I have seen.  There is an excellent chapter on Swords and Sorcery playsets.  I began corresponding with him after I purchased a copy of his book.  He is a real gentleman, and knows his stuff.  I believe that he is the original owner of most, if not all, of the figures and playsets he is offering.   I have purchased from him myself and I can vouch that what I received was of the highest quality and very well packaged.  
If you are interested in any of these sets, or would like a list of dozens of other outstanding medieval and historical playsets he has available, you can email Joseph at Joseph.svec@earthlink.net.  You can buy a copy of his book at Toy Knights. 
This is great stuff at fair prices.  Get them while you can.

Miner Dragon Crest Fantasy Adventure Boxed playset. $50.00 
This set is missing the playmat, and all the green spooky figures.  It has 100 knights in black and red, 9 horses, 4 horses blankets,  the ladder, mantlet,  catapult, siege tower and two sets of boulders still on the sprue. It has a dragon, but it is different than the one in the box picture. Note:the castle drawbridge is not shown but is present.

Wow, I am happy you posted this up for us! I shot him an email, and hopefully I will be able to snag a few of these sets. Great prices and a great chance for me to snag a few of the old sets I don't have...we will see!
ReplyDeleteHey! I actually found a copy of Miner Dragon Crest at my local salvation army and can't find much info on it. Did you end up selling this copy?
