I understand it. Unless an unboxing of still sealed set 30 years later, there
is no evidence that would be more valuable than the instructions.
I agree that this is personal memory, but also the initial recording of the minifig
in this db (which has probably been corrected based on the instructions). With
the 2nd set, incomplete but including this part in addition .. In short, it gives
me 3 coincidences which corroborate each other.
This is why, for lack of anything better, I simply testify to it.

cas185 (Inv) Breastplate - Blue with Black Arms, Red Legs with Black Hips, Dark Gray Grille Helmet, Red Plume
Minifigures: Castle: Black Knights

* Add 1 Part 4524 Blue Minifigure, Cape Plastic

Comments from Submitter:
Unfortunately I have no source, but a very special memory for the set 6085. I confirm that in instructions (pictures and photos) that knight has no cape, but I am convinced that there were in the set that I bought at the time (2 of the 4 knights had a cape). Lately I bought this set again from ebay (95% complete) and then the minifigure also wore a blue cape.
I imagine it may be an inventory variation. I bought this set in France in the last year of its production (it was no longer in the following catalog). The one I bought on ebay also comes from France.
I don't know how to confirm this. I noticed that in the inventory history, the minifigure had been recorded with a blue cape, and that it was remove in 2008.

This request will not be accepted. Without better proof than recollection and
a used/incomplete set, we must rely on what is available (the instructions and
set photos).

Cheers,
Randy
