20240328: the History of LEGO Castle day 088. 6079 Dark Forest Fortress (1996, 469 pieces, 158 different parts) The Dark Forest Fortress is built on a raised 32x32 green canyon baseplate with printed rocks and path design. Two large brown trees built out of 3x3x6 corner panels with green foilage occupy two sides of the build. A blue, black, and red carriage pulled by a brown horse with a blue harness travels through the forest. The Dark Forest Fortress has seven minifigures. -The first minifigure appears to be modeled after Earl Flynn and has a green forest folk cap with a small red feather, a yellow minifigure head with a black handle bar mustache and spikey beard, a brown torso with yellow arms and printed black cross-chest belt with a yellow buckle and a black belt with three notches and a silver buckle, and plain green legs. -The second minifigure has a small blue feather in a brown forest folk cap, a yellow minifigure head with black bangs and mustache, a printed brown torso with a studded leather armor design and a cross-chest belt with a yellow buckle and a brown belt with black notches and a yellow buckle with blue arms, and plain light gray legs. -The next minifigure has a black hood, yellow minifigure head with brown bangs and longer side bangs, a brown quiver, a green torso with printed yellow v-neck, brown pouch on a black belt with a yellow buckle and green arms, a brown bow with notched arrow, and plain light gray legs. -Another minifigure has a brown hood, a yellow minifigure head with black bangs and mustache and facial scruff, a green forest person torso with printed maroon spikey collar and red arms, a cross-torso black belt, a black belt with yellow buckle, plain brown legs, a dark gray sword, and a brown forest person shield with a brown deer head with black antlers on a green background with a brown border. -The skeleton returns in this set, with a white minifigure head with black circular eyes, a black triangle nose, and a black tooth smile, a white skeleton body with thin shoulder pins, thin skeleton arms, and individual bone legs. -One of the dragon master knights uses a yellow minifigure head with wavy black eyebrows, mustache, and goatee, a red torso with blue arms, printed silver shoulder covers, and a standing yellow and black halved dragon on a black and red background with black legs and a red belt. -Another of the dragon master knights has a yellow minifigure head with black forehead tuft and mustache, a red torso with blue arms and a printed yellow dragon head on a red background with a printed black belt with yellow notches and circular hollow yellow belt buckle, and light gray legs with a black belt. This set has a number of unique and rare parts. -The green 32x32 raised canyon base plate is unique to this set. -The brown 3x3x6 corner panel was only found in one other set, 6020 Magic Shop. -The blue horse hitching harness was only found in two other sets (6010 Supply Wagon and 6359 Horse Trailer). -The light gray 5x5 modified facet brick is only found in six other sets. -The brown forest folk triangular shield is only found in seven other sets. -This is the only castle set with the black 2x6x.66 slope, though it does appear in seven other LEGO sets. -The black 3x1x3.33 slope with studs is used in eight other sets. -The brown 1x5x4 continuous arch bow is used in nine other sets. This is a Very Cool set. Even though I only picked it up several years ago and built it for the first time then, it's become one of my favorite designs. There are hidden areas and if you pull the pin, the tree actually falls and blocks the road through the forest. Also, I'm fairly certain this is my absolute FAVORITE carriage design in all the LEGO castle sets :) Parts inventory for this set can be found on BrickLink or Rebrickable and a free download of the instructions is available on ToysPeriod.

20240306: the History of LEGO Castle day 066. 6048 Majisto's Magical Workshop (1993, 188 pieces, 66 different parts) Majisto's Magical Workshop is built on two thin 8x16 baseplates attached by a hinge to close the building. The inside of the workshop contains a brown treasure chest with transparent red and green 1x1 circle plates (also known as studs), a white 2x2 printed magic scroll tile, a small cooking pot on a fire, and a light gray 2x4 brick functioning as a table with two transparent clear goblets. The bulk of the set is built on top of two dark gray 4x10x6 rectangular Big Ugly Rock Panels (BURPs) with light gray and black highlights. When closed, the workshop has no doors or other way into the workshop, but there are two blue 1x2x2 window shutters on display in the front. The roof is composed of large red plates with black highlights. This set includes two minifigures. The first minifigure is Majisto with a blue wizard hat with a white beard, black plastic cape, blue torso with blue arms and a yellow v-neck with a black belt and yellow buckle and a small brown pouch, plain blue legs, and a glow-in-the-dark wand. The second minifigure has a black dragon helmet with just the right and left blue dragon plumes, a yellow minifigure head with wavy black eyebrows, mustache, and goatee, a red torso with blue arms, printed silver shoulder covers, and a standing yellow and black halved dragon on a black and red background with black legs and a red belt. This is one of only six castle sets to use the black 3x1x3.33 slope with studs (6048 Majisto's Magical Workshop, 6075-1 Wolfpack Tower, 6078 Royal Drawbridge, 6079 Dark Forest Fortress, 6082 Fire Breathing Fortress, 6090 Royal Knight's Castle), and while it's one of my favorite pieces, it's not very common. Majisto's Magical Workshop also uses two of the blue dragon plumes as front decoration for the building, which are only found in this set, 6086 Black Knight's Castle, and 6105 Medieval Knights. This is one of only four total sets to use the 4x8x2.33 dark gray castle turret top (6046 Hemlock Stronghold, 6048 Majisto's Magical Workshop, 6094 Guarded Treasury, 6097 Night Lord's Castle) and the ovoid green dragon shield is only found in 12 sets. I've now arrived at the sets that I have owned for some time but never built, so this is my first time building them. This set was interesting to me because of the recent gift with purchase remake, which caused a big stir in the LEGO Castle fandoms. (I still haven't built that one, either). So some of this set is really neat, like the actual inside of the workshop with the ladder to the second floor and the fire with the pot and the table. It's a cozy workshop and if you think about it being actually underground, maybe in a cave or something, it's pretty neat, minus the open air roof situation. But on the other hand, I felt like there were some really fragile parts while building that didn't feel as stable while I was building them but definitely locked in place once the turret pieces were added. I also think I'm still pretty annoyed at how this entire subtheme is clearly intended for a male-only audience and there are no women in this subtheme. Overall, it is pretty fun, though. Parts inventory for this set can be found on BrickLink or Rebrickable and a free download of the instructions can be found on ToysPeriod.

20240312: the History of LEGO Castle day 072. 1906 Majisto's Tower (1994, 196 pieces, 90 different parts) Majisto's Tower is a black and light gray building on a 16x24 green plate with large brown wood double doors and a two story black tower in front and a black tower with a red sloped roof in the back corner. The archway over the door and the front-facing tower wall are both black with printed yellow fire breathing dragons facing each other. A blue robed wizard rides in a black and blue chariot pulled by a brown horse in a blue harness with a red horse helmet and red dragon wings on the back. A dark gray Large Ugly Rock Panel (LURP) is on one side and a Big Ugly Rock Panel (BURP) is on the other side. There are three minifigures in this set. -The first minifigure is Majisto with a blue wizard hat with a white beard, black plastic cape, blue torso with blue arms and a yellow v-neck with a black belt and yellow buckle and a small brown pouch, plain blue legs, a glow-in-the-dark wand, and a white 2x2 printed spell scroll tile. -The second minifigure has a black dragon helmet with all three red dragon plumes, a dark gray halberd, a yellow minifigure head with wavy black eyebrows, mustache, and goatee, a red torso with blue arms, printed silver shoulder covers, and a standing yellow and black halved dragon on a black and red background with black legs and a red belt. -The third minifigure has a a yellow minifigure head with black forehead tuft and mustache, a red torso with blue arms and a printed yellow dragon head on a red background with a printed black belt with yellow notches and circular hollow yellow belt buckle, and light gray legs with a black belt. Accessories include a black axe wielder helmet, a brown spear, and an ovoid shield with a green dragon with red wings on a yellow background with a red border. This set has several new and unique parts: -There are two (VERY COOL) black pieces with printed yellow dragons facing each other. One is a black 1x8x2 arch and the other is a black 2x5x6 wall panel. Both are only found in this set and 6082 Fire Breathing Fortress. -The brown 1x4x8 curved top door is only found in one other set, 6082 Fire Breathing Fortress. -The red 4x8x6 tower roof is only found in two other sets (1906 Majisto's Tower and 9367 Castle Set from Education and Dacta). -The black 6x6x9.33 large black enclosed staircase is only found in two other sets (6076 Dark Dragon's Den and 6497 Twisted Time Train). -The yellow and green cloth 8x5 dragon banner only appears in three other sets (6056 Dragon Wagon, 6076 Dark Dragon's Den, 6082 Fire Breathing Fortress). -This is one of only six castle sets to use the black 3x1x3.33 slope with studs (6048 Majisto's Magical Workshop, 6075-1 Wolfpack Tower, 6078 Royal Drawbridge, 6079 Dark Forest Fortress, 6082 Fire Breathing Fortress, 6090 Royal Knight's Castle). -The ovoid shield with a print of a green dragon with red wings on a yellow background with a red outline is only found in twelve sets. This set is a lot of fun and it's been great to see play elements included so the minifigures can actually get from the bottom floor of the castles into the towers. This might be my favorite of the Dragon Master sets in this subtheme and I think it would be really interesting to build two of these back-to-back, as I think that would really flush this out into a most stable castle. Maybe I can add that idea to my growing list of things to try when I have time :) Parts inventory for this set can be found at BrickLink or Rebrickable and a free download of the instructions is available on ToysPeriod.

20240309: the History of LEGO Castle day 069. 6082 Fire Breathing Fortress (1993, 406 pieces, 152 different parts) The Fire Breathing Fortress is a black and light gray fortress with red roofs built on a green raised 32x32 baseplate with ramp and a brick-built black dragon head over the ramp with yellow eyes, small red wings, a moveable red tongue, and flames from its nostrils. This set includes six minifigures. -The first minifigure is Majisto with a blue wizard hat with a white beard, black plastic cape, blue torso with blue arms and a yellow v-neck with a black belt and yellow buckle and a small brown pouch, plain blue legs, a glow-in-the-dark wand, and a white 2x2 printed spell scroll tile. -The second minifigure has a black dragon helmet with all three yellow dragon plumes, a yellow minifigure head with red bangs, sideburns, eyebrows, and mustache, a yellow cloth cape with a green dragon breathing red flame with a red border around the cape, a red torso with one blue arm and one black arm, printed silver shoulder covers, and a yellow and black halved dragon head spouting yellow flames on a black and red background with one black leg and one blue leg and a red belt. -Three of the minifigures have a yellow minifigure head with black forehead tuft and mustache, a red torso with blue arms and a printed yellow dragon head on a red background with a printed black belt with yellow notches and circular hollow yellow belt buckle, and light gray legs with a black belt. Accessories include two black axe wielder helmets, a black archer helmet, a brown bow and quiver, a dark gray crossbow, a dark gray sword, and an ovoid shield with a green dragon with red wings on a yellow background with a red border. -The last minifigure is a Wolfpack person with a brown torso and brown arms with a silver wolfhead on a black triangular pattern with a red border, black legs with a red belt, and a yellow minifigure head with black bangs, beard stubble, and a patch over one eye with a black hood. This set has several new and unique parts: -This is the only set to use this green 32x32 raised baseplate with ramp, pit, and dark gray rock patterns. -There are two (VERY COOL) black pieces with printed yellow dragons facing each other. One is a black 1x8x2 arch and the other is a black 2x5x6 wall panel. Both are only found in this set and 1906 Majisto's Tower. -The light gray 7x7 castle turret top corner is only found in one other set (6097 Night Lord's Castle). -The black 4x7x9.33 straight enclosed staircase is only found in this set and a 1991 space set, 6988 Alpha Centauri Outpost. -The yellow and green cloth 8x5 dragon banner only appears in three other sets (1906 Majisto's Tower, 6056 Dragon Wagon, and 6076 Dark Dragon's Den). -Only three other castle sets have the light gray 1x12x3 arch (6090 Royal Knight's Castle, 6097 Night Lord's Castle, and 9367 Castle Set from Education and Dacta). -The red 4x8x6 tower roof is only found in two other sets (1906 Majisto's Tower and 9367 Castle Set from Education and Dacta. -The brown 9x13 grille is only found in four other sets (6076 Dark Dragon's Den, 6091 / 6098 King Leo's Castle, 6097 Night Lord's Castle, and 6279 Skull Island). -This green dragon was only found in six sets (6037 Witch's Windship, 6056 Dragon Wagon, 6076 Dark Dragon's Den, 6082 Fire Breathing Fortress, 6087 Witch's Magic Manor, and 9376 Castle Set from Education and Dacta). -This is one of only six castle sets to use the black 3x1x3.33 slope with studs (6048 Majisto's Magical Workshop, 6075-1 Wolfpack Tower, 6078 Royal Drawbridge, 6079 Dark Forest Fortress, 6082 Fire Breathing Fortress, 6090 Royal Knight's Castle). -The ovoid shield with a print of a green dragon with red wings on a yellow background with a red outline is only found in twelve sets.

20240304: the History of LEGO Castle day 064. 6020 Magic Shop (1993, 47 pieces, 27 different parts) The Magic Shop is a small set with brown 3x3x6 corner panels on a 6x6 green plate with green foilage. A brown ladder comes down the front and covers a 2x2 light gray brick with a printed 2x2 white spell scroll while a brown 2x2x2 barrel with lid has a dark gray sword and a dark gray parrot sits on top. Two transparent neon orange flames are on either side of the panels. The one minifigure in this set is brand new, and the first time one of the minifigures is named. Majisto has a blue wizard hat with a white beard, black plastic cape, blue torso with blue arms and a yellow v-neck with a black belt and yellow buckle and a small brown pouch, plain blue legs, and a glow-in-the-dark wand. New and unique parts for this set include the brown 3x3x6 corner panel, which is the first set with the brown panel and also one of only two sets to use the brown 3x3x6 corner panel (the other is 6079 Dark Forest Fortress). This is also the first use of the glow-in-the-dark wand and the white 2x2 printed magic scroll tile, though both those can be found in later sets. This is also the introduction of part 6126, the castle flame / seaweed / water). The Magic Shop introduces us to the next LEGO Castle theme, the Dragon Masters or Dragon Knights. In the original catalogues, this theme was listed as Dragon Masters but every online system including BrickLink, Rebrickable, and BrickSet refer to this theme as Dragon Knights. Parts inventory for this set can be found on BrickLink or Rebrickable with a free download of the instructions available at ToysPeriod.

20240417: the History of LEGO Castle day 108. 2586 Chess King (1998, 26 pieces, 13 different parts) The Chess King is a red throne built on two black 1x4 arches with a red 4x4 double inverted slope base, red 2x1x1.33 curved slopes forming the back sides of the throne around a light gray back. The top of the throne has a chrome silver 1x1 five point crystal cluster and the king sitting on the thone holds an upsidedown white 4L antenna pole with a trans red and trans green stud on top. The one minifigure for this set is the Chess King, with a chrome gold crown, a yellow minifigure head with a curly mustache and spikey beard, a red plastic cape, a dark gray torso with silver scale mail print and a red necklace with red arms, and plain white legs. The yellow minifigure head (3626bpx23) only appeared in four sets (6046 Hemlock Stronghold, 6079 Dark Forest Fortress, 6706 Frontier Patrol, and 6762 / 6769 Fort Legorado), and two vintage minifigure collections (852697 Vintage Minifigure Collection Volume 3 and 5000439 Vintage Minifigure Collection Volume 3 2012 Edition), and the dark gray torso with printed silver scale mail and a red necklace with red arms was unique to this set, though the same torso with black arms was found in four other sets (3739 Blacksmith Shop, 4817 Dungeon, 6091 / 6098 King Leo's Castle, and 6096 Bull's Attack). This set is a stand alone, castle-adjacent set, and also the last LEGO castle set until the Knights Kingdom launch in 2000, though LEGO did run a Ninja theme, taking place in Feudal Japan, from 1998-1999 with 29 sets in the series. The Chess King also appears in 5702 Personal Computer Chess. Parts inventory for this set can be found on BrickLink and Rebrickable and a free download of the instructions is available on ToysPeriod.

20240330: the History of LEGO Castle day 090. Dark Forest minifigures Since this is such a small theme and the Dark Forest minifigure torsos don't show up much outside of this LEGO Castle subtheme, I decided to just show all the minifigures used in the three Dark Forest sets (6024 Bandit Ambush, 6046 Hemlock Stronghold, and 6079 Dark Forest Fortress). -The skeleton shows up in two of the three Dark Forest sets, with a white minifigure head with black circular eyes, a black triangle nose, and a black tooth smile, a white skeleton body with thin shoulder pins, thin skeleton arms, and individual bone legs. This continues to be my favorite minifigure skeleton :) -The second minifigure has a small blue feather in a brown forest folk cap, a yellow minifigure head with black bangs and mustache, a printed brown torso with a studded leather armor design and a cross-chest belt with a yellow buckle and a brown belt with black notches and a yellow buckle with blue arms, and plain light gray legs. -The next minifigure appears to be modeled after Earl Flynn and has a green forest folk cap with a small red feather, a yellow minifigure head with a black handle bar mustache and spikey beard, a brown torso with yellow arms and printed black cross-chest belt with a yellow buckle and a black belt with three notches and a silver buckle, and plain green legs. -Another forest folk minifigure has a brown hood, a yellow minifigure head with black bangs and mustache and facial scruff, a green forest person torso with printed maroon spikey collar and red arms, a cross-torso black belt, a black belt with yellow buckle, and plain brown legs. This torso also appears in 6087 Witch's Magic Manor. -The next forest folk minifigure has a black hood, yellow minifigure head with brown bangs and longer side bangs, a brown quiver, a green torso with printed yellow v-neck, brown pouch on a black belt with a yellow buckle and green arms, and plain light gray legs. Other than the plain yellow smiley face minifigure head on the Royal Knight crossbow wielder, this is the only non-male capable minifigure in this series. This torso also appears in eight other non-Dark Forest sets. -The first Royal Knight minifigure has a yellow minifigure head with a blocked open stud and black bangs with a black mustache and facial scruff, a red torso with white arms and a yellow lion head with a yellow crown and a black mane on a red and white triangular background with a blue border, and black legs with a red belt. This torso is found in eight sets. -The second Royal Knight minifigure has a plain yellow minifigure head with a blocked open stud, a white torso with blue arms and a yellow lion head with a yellow crown and a black mane on a halved red and white triangular background with a blue border, and red legs with a black belt. This torso is found in three sets. -The first Dragon Master / Knight uses a yellow minifigure head with wavy black eyebrows, mustache, and goatee, a red torso with blue arms, printed silver shoulder covers, and a standing yellow and black halved dragon on a black and red background with black legs and a red belt. This torso is found in eight sets. -The second Dragon Master / Knight has a yellow minifigure head with black forehead tuft and mustache, a red torso with blue arms and a printed yellow dragon head on a red background with a printed black belt with yellow notches and circular hollow yellow belt buckle, and light gray legs with a black belt. This torso is found in eight sets.

20240329: the History of LEGO Castle day 089. The Dark Forest This LEGO Castle subtheme only has three sets. -6024 Bandit Ambush -6046 Hemlock Stronghold -6079 Dark Forest Fortress The Dark Forest castle subtheme is tied with the Wolfpack for the smallest amount of sets within the theme and the minifigure torsos from this subtheme show up less in other themes and sets than the Wolfpack torsos. Even as such a small subtheme, though, this series has a LOT of really fun features, mostly found in the Dark Forest Fortress, the largest of the Dark Forest sets. The subtheme was released in 1996 with most of the sets still available for purchase through 1998. BrickLink, BrickSet, and Rebrickable all have the same set listing and more detailed information is available on Brickipedia.
