Description

A castle of two moods

The model mixes pale stone walls in white and tan with gilded battlements and dark grey Light Bluish Gray details, giving the build a lived-in, slightly sinister look. Builders work through pointed towers, tight staircases and hidden chambers rather than one flat facade, which keeps the assembly varied from box to shelf. With 471 unique parts, the set draws on a wide range of specialised pieces and colours that are just as useful for your own fantasy builds. The parts list on this page breaks down exactly which bricks and colours make up the set.

Eleven minifigures, two sides of the story

Eleven minifigures make this one of the more populated sets in the theme, split between young heroes from the dream world and opponents loyal to the Nightmare King, plus matching weapons and creature accessories. That mix works well for open-ended roleplay on its own, separate from the finished build. Viewers familiar with the show will spot plenty of story details; anyone new to it still gets a coherent fantasy castle with a strong light-and-shadow palette, suited to display on a shelf or as a diorama centrepiece.

Who it's built for

At 1,742 pieces, Castle Nocturnia is a project for confident builders and families willing to spread the build across more than one sitting. Its scale and the many small build stages, from spiral stairs to a hidden dungeon, make the process itself part of the appeal rather than just the finished model. Once built, the castle works as a display piece and as a stage for free play, since several sections open up or can be rearranged. That makes it suited both to collectors who care about detail and to children already following the series.

Colours and parts worth knowing

The white, tan, pearl gold and Light Bluish Gray colour scheme runs through the whole set, which also makes it a useful parts bin for other projects. The gold and grey tones in particular work well as trim on other castles, towers or fantasy builds beyond Nocturnia itself. With 471 unique parts, there's enough variety of shapes to support unusual building ideas too. The full parts list, with every colour and quantity, is further down this page.
