Description

A castle with its own faction

The knights' world of the early nineties was divided into factions, and the Black Knights were among the best known. Their castle is a classic stage for sieges and tournaments, with several sides pitted against each other. At 590 pieces, the set sits well above the small knight packs and offers enough walls, gates and rooms for proper play scenes. If you grew up with castle sets, you will spot the style of that era straight away, which looks quite different from today's fortresses.

Grey, black, brown and red

The main colours, light grey, black, brown and red, define the character of the model. Light grey stands for the stone walls, black for the grim faction colour, brown for the timber parts and red for accents such as flags or roofs. With 107 different parts, the mix includes lots of repeated wall bricks alongside a few special shapes. Collectors like it because the colour scheme is rather rare now, and on a shelf it looks unified and serious without becoming too gloomy.

Twelve minifigures for siege and defence

With 12 minifigures, the garrison is large. That is a clear plus, because a castle only comes alive with guards, knights and enemies. You can line up a defence along the walls, prepare an assault or stage a tournament in the courtyard. The number of figures also makes the set a good starting point for a bigger medieval landscape, where several castles and factions stand side by side and play against one another.

Rebuilding from an old collection

A set from 1992 usually reaches you second-hand, often with gaps along the battlements or among the small parts. The parts list on this page lets you check exactly what is missing. If you already have plenty of grey and black bricks at home, “What can I build?” shows how close you are to this castle and which other sets your stock could produce, without counting every brick by hand.
