Description

Why the crew matters

Nine minifigures for fewer than 500 pieces is a generous ratio, and it tells you what this set is for. The deck is meant to be busy, with trolls rowing, fighting and defending the vessel against a rival kingdom. As a display model it still looks the part, but the real fun is in playing with it. Opening the bags, you notice how much of the box is given over to the figures and their gear rather than to the hull itself.

A palette of timber and iron

Reddish brown and dark red lead the colour mix, supported by light and dark bluish grey. The result is a rough, hand-built look: warm brown planking, red touches for sails and decoration, and grey pieces standing in for metal fittings and stonework. Across 124 different parts you will find plenty of curved elements, plates and connectors that make up the hull. These dark reds are popular in castle and pirate builds, so they are easy to reuse in later projects.

Where it sits in the Castle range

Fantasy Era ran from 2007 to 2009 and pitted a kingdom against trolls and other creatures. This warship gives the trolls a vehicle of their own, which makes the fight feel more even. Being a 2008 release, it comes from the middle of that period. If you collect sets from those years, it is a natural companion to the fortresses and knights, and it gives the troll side something solid to put on the shelf.

Using the parts list

The full parts list, colour by colour, is further down this page. Use it to track down missing bricks or to check what you already own. The “What can I build?” tool shows which other models are possible with your collection plus the pieces in this set. With so many brown and red elements, a village, a tavern or a second ship are all realistic ideas, and the grey parts help with walls and weapons.
