Description

A fortress with an adventure backstory

The Orient Expedition line sends adventurers to distant lands in search of treasure and secrets. The Dragon Fortress is a setting with a gloomy character: a castle guarded by dragons and sentries offers plenty of material for chases and fights. For children who invent stories, that makes a rich backdrop, and the story is easy to keep spinning even if you do not know the line. For collectors of older adventure sets, it is a typical example of the design style of the early 2000s.

Nine figures, many scenes

With 9 minifigures the fortress is well populated, because heroes, opponents and guards can be spread across several sides. That makes it interesting for play: one group can defend the walls while another tries to break in. Those who prefer to display it benefit as well, since a scene with several figures looks livelier than an empty castle, and the extra figures make it easy to stage bigger battles. You will find individual figure names in the catalogue data, and we deliberately avoid guessing them here.

Dark colours, many part types

Black, red, tan and dark grey set the colour scheme. The mix looks menacing and suits a fortress that is not meant to be cosy. With 187 different parts among 781 pieces the variety is high, which points to many specialist shapes for the roof, the gate, the dragon elements and the accessories. The build therefore asks for a little more attention than a plain brick box, but rewards you with a detailed result, particularly around the roof and gate, where it pays to follow the instructions carefully.

Parts list and new ideas

The complete parts list on this page shows all 187 part types with colours and quantities. That is useful for checking a used set or replacing lost parts, as minifigure accessories go missing easily. The “What can I build?” tool also shows which other sets you could build from these bricks, fully or in part. Black and dark grey are well suited to castles and ruins of your own design. The minifigures also fit into other adventure or castle scenes, which widens your stock nicely.
