All of the shields that are basically just new versions of old ones are fine. The one with the dual background colours, aka, the queens shield, is a new design, so we will allow all but that one.

Thank you very much!

Hello again! I have another question regarding the “before 1996” category: Are modern versions of the same shield designed allowed? I’m specifically asking about the shields included with set 10305, Lion Knight’s Castle (2022). Several of the designs are reprints of classic designs, but they have se...

Thank you for the additional information!

1) Fleshies are fine except for the parts before 1995 category. 2) Yes, Vikings are fine. 3) Dragons are dragons..so sure use friends ones. 4) No to the custom pieces. Thank you so much for your prompt response! Now I just need to wait for BrickLink to come back online, so I can get the pieces I ne...

Apologies if these questions have already been discussed somewhere. I did search, but it can be difficult to find the exact information needed. 1. Aside from the Truly Classic Castle category, are skin tone minifigures allowed in this contest? If so, is there any penalty for using them? 2. Are Vikin...

Wow! I love all of the incredible details you put into this!

The goal of this category is to make a creation with parts available to builders in the mid-nineties. I'll give list resources below, but looking at official sets before 1996 is a good place to start (MOCs too, but finding these on the internet is hard). Thank you for the clarification and all of t...

For those of us new to the Castle theme, where do we find a list of parts acceptable for the Truly Classic Castle category?

I guess what I’m really asking is which list are the judges using?

That’s really well done! I especially love the spider under the Sorting Hat.

Congrats on having your idea turned into an official Lego set! I’m looking forward to building this, and I’m probably going to buy a second set just for the parts. :) The Ideas submission was by Florian, aka BrickHammer, but I had the pleasure of being the LEGO Designer who got to to work on transl...

The Colossal Castle Contest is back for its 21st year! Categories will be posted on November 1st and the contest will run through January 3rd, 2024. http://www.classic-castle.com/events/contest/cccontest21/images/cccxxi_announce.png This will be my first year participating in this event, and I’m re...

I had a blast designing it, hope those of you who get one really enjoy the build process! It felt super surreal to work on an official LEGO Castle product more than 10 years after joining this forum as a young castle fan :D I also tried to make sure it's a great general medieval building parts pack...
