Castle toys that will bring your drab castle playset to life

Some good castle toys can go a long to spice up a drab castle playset. Some castle playsets are so bland, they’re little more than four walls and a couple of parapets. Blah! Blah! A good castle playset can be a captivating toy though for young girls and young boys alike, so what’s missing from your castle playset? The answer is easy some good quality and affordable castle toys. Let’s have a look at some of the more popular ones that will add that much needed realism, that bit of spark to get your little prince or princess playing contentedly again.

Castle toys; Evil Characters and Scary Monsters

The number one castle toy that will attract your little ones attention is a good scary monster and for really scary you can’t beat an evil looking dragon, there are some nasty looking two-headed dragon toys on the market like one I saw recently that was a vivid copper colour. He would be perfect to bring a bit of realism back to your castle playset.
Evil knights are definitely a necessity for your castle playset as well. Black armoured toy knights are terrifically wicked if you get what I mean. A good battle can always be had by a good and bad knight, after all a black knight and his evil army are the perfect characters to siege your castle.

Castle toys; Siege equipment

And what would a castle siege be without the right equipment? A good battering ram to batter the portcullis and drawbridge to pieces a siege tower for your evil army to climb to try to breach the castle walls. Maybe a canon or two to blast the attackers to smithereens and of course some catapults wouldn’t go astray as well.

Castle toys; Good Characters

You’ll also need some good characters to defend the castle. Primary are a few toy knights, perhaps one in a good fighting stance and another atop a valiant, rearing steed would do nicely.
A king and a queen are kind of a necessity, they’re the ones who throw the banquet when the heroic knights come home from defeating the evil dragon toys and rescuing the beautiful princess. A royal prince is always a popular one too, especially with the girls! A jester is usually present at the banquet and some of them are quite amusing.
Next you’ll need some militia, a few soldiers with swords and crossbows and maybe even a commander to whip the troops into shape!



Use your imagination, what castle toys work well with your castle playset? Remember also to get the correctly sized characters and equipment otherwise it will all look a bit out of kilter. Whatever you choose though with a bit of searching and some common sense a few good castle toys will add that much needed realism to your castle playset.
