Description

A short knightly adventure

The name gives it away: a knight comes across something he did not expect. Instead of a big fortress, the set tells one short scene. Two minifigures are enough to set hero against opponent. Small sets like this are popular because they build quickly, can be played with at once and fit anywhere, even beside the larger castles of the Royal Knights series to which it belongs in theme. Even with little space you still get a small story of its own, with a beginning, a climax and a mild fright.

Light grey, black and neon orange

The colours carry the mood: light grey and black look grim and stony, yellow adds accents, and transparent neon orange gives an eye-catching glow. Neon parts like this were a hallmark of many nineties sets and are popular with collectors today. With 38 different part types among 74 pieces, the selection is fairly varied, so the box holds a few single parts that can find use in other builds later. The parts list on this page shows exactly which ones they are and how often they appear.

To play with or to display

The model fits on a small shelf. It works for play as well as for display, particularly for collectors who like nineties Castle sets. If you own several sets from the line, you can place the scene in a larger landscape and carry the story on. Two or three small neighbours side by side quickly make a diorama, without needing much space or budget.

Parts list and ideas

You will find the complete parts list on this page. It is useful when you want to check a second-hand set or track down individual parts, such as the neon pieces. The “What can I build?” tool shows which other models your bricks could make. The mix of grey and black in particular suits walls, ruins and other medieval-style builds of your own.
