Edit, added info: There were indeed 10 basic figures, 4 mounted and 6 of foot, but with all the shield, colour, crest and other variations a 'complete collection' would consist of many more figures, and cost a lot of money to buy.
There were 9 different shields, each in yellow, orange, sky blue, and black (other colours have been seen, but may have been Hongkong pirate copies), which could, of course have red or white rose centres.
There were 6 different hangings below the helmet crests in 4 regular colours and 18 different crests, each in red or white. (also different colours have been seen, but possibly Hongkong copies)
Then there were also different colours and types of horse blankets and saddles. lance pennants, some of which are mega rare. A mounted knight with a YELLOW horse blanket recent sold for UK£370 on Ebay! And a knight on the charging (not rearing) horse in WHITE sold for UK£350!
Britains had a branch (franchise?) in France which made Swoppet knights, some in unusual colours, and these sell for ridiculous prices on the few occasions they come up for auction as well.
Have I bought any? No! I'm an obsessive collector, but not that obsessive ;-)

How were knights trained?
Young Noble boys who showed promise started knight training around 7 or 8 years old. As they approached their teens they were made Squires to a knight. Some stayed and others would leave the "program". A young man became at knight at 21. An interesting bit of trivia about knights is that they were not allowed by law to wear rings. Many of the early knights were little more than thugs for the local Nobility and were more like the mafia than the shiny knight in armour that we think of from stories. It wasn't until the Church stepped in and made the knights vow before relics of Saints that they would no long harm or kill widows, children or the elderly that some order was brought to the knighthood.

Were there many knights in medieval times?
Yes. Knights at that time were considered vassals to a Lord. The vassal provided military aid, a portion of the food farmed on their land, and loyalty to their Lord. In return they got land, which was equal to money, and protection when needed. Knights were no longer used after the Hundred Years War between France and England. they were found to be ineffective, not helpful, against new military tactics. hope this helps
