The Wolfpack are awesome but this is hardly a tower. If a building inspector came over, this building would be deemed unfit to habit. This is just like the Wolfpack, they have a great thing going with Wolfpack Renegades but when it comes to a hideout, they cheap out. Its not realistic and it needs t...

I was inspired by The Secret of Monkey Island™ as for my Pirate creations,and by many books and movies for Castle creations. For example Erol Flynn's Adventures of Robin Hood, Kevin Costner's King of Thieves, Sir Walter Scott's Ivanhoe and so on. I absolutely forgot about the influence on books on ...

When I was growing up, My lego castle theme was heavily influence by the game Final Fantasy and Dungeon and Dragons. Both games helped break up those boring school days and more importantly got me more serious into the Lego Castle Theme than the other themes. Other games that also influenced me were...

If lego had a list of the 7 Lego Wonders of the Castle theme, this item, in my book, this piece would be in it. What it lacked in minifigs it made up in design.

The absolutely greatest sets of all time involve the Black Falcons, so why is a poll even needed to prove that. The only thing that ever bothered me is that in some Black Falcon sets they show a Black Falcon infantryman with a spear and a shield. In history, spearmen and pikemen never carried shield...

There is much to be said about how great the big castle sets are such as the 6085 and the 6080, but I would also like to put my endorsement on some of the mid-size sets such as the 6054 Forestmen's Hideout. I love this set because relatively old and no other mid-size set currently compares to it's s...

My want is not necessarily for a remake of a castle, but for the reissue of the triangular shields. The Black Falcon shield has to be one of the greatest items ever made in the castle series with its gold trim and blue trim variations. Lego should abandon those oval inferiorities and return to the c...
