LEGO® Jayko (USA Version with 6 Cards, Target Promo)

Description

A knight from the second kingdom

Knights Kingdom II was a castle line that put named knights at the centre of its story. Jayko is one of them, offered as a small standalone set: 51 pieces are enough to build the figure and his equipment. According to the catalogue the set holds no minifigures in the usual sense, so the character is put together from the bricks themselves. It suits anyone who enjoys building a single character and then displaying it or playing on with it afterwards.

What makes this edition different

The number 8783-2 marks the American release with six cards, distributed as a promotional item at Target. The cards were part of the range's play concept and turn the set into more than a plain building kit. For collectors that detail matters, because the edition differs from other releases of the same character. The parts list on this page lets you check whether a second-hand copy is complete, even when cards and packaging are sold separately from the bricks.

Colours and part variety

Medium blue, white and light bluish grey dominate, supported by parts with no fixed colour assignment. With just 51 pieces, 25 different part types is a high figure. Almost every element therefore appears only once or twice, and many are specialist pieces for armour, weapons or decoration. That keeps the build varied, but it also means a missing part is harder to replace. A glance at the list is worth it before you buy a used copy or compare it with your own stock.

Building on with your own collection

The parts work well in castle scenes you assemble from other sets. If you add your copy to your collection on Bricoria, the “What can I build?” tool shows which further models your stock allows. That is particularly helpful for a set with so many specialist parts, since these often reappear in other knight sets. The parts list on this page then serves as your reference for what exactly came in the US edition.
