I have it, it was my first real castle as a child, even if the first set when I was very little was 1596, but I still have this one today next to other castles.
Ah yes. 2000s. Lego went wild with big blocks. I really prefer the older castle sets from 1984 till 1994. And of course the last years, the 40th anniversary and upcoming bricklink Castle. So thrilled i went for that one this year! You had the chance to get one?
I picked up Medieval town square but missed the new Bricklink Castle. I think I saw a Bricklink Forestmen castle being thought about… if that is released will do my best to order that! It is great to see Lego releasing these new sets…. Although running out of room! Which set did you get?
@@vintagebricks that is awesome news for us that you got the village! I was fortunate enough to order 1 bricklink Castle. 15 minutes later it was sold out! Really thrilled to see that arriving. Now waiting for a double vip point weekend to order the village. Got to talk the Miss first to get approval lol.
Those two Lion knights do have names. First one is Richard the Strong, second one is John of Mayne Wow thats the first time i've heard somebody call Cedric iconic. Oh don't get me wrong he's one of my favourite Castle characters and Lego villains in general but I don't know if he's considered iconic. Since I feel he's fallen under the radar to most people and he's often overshadowed by other Castle villains like Vladek from Knights Kingdom 2, Basil the Bat Lord and Willa the Witch from Fright Knights, the trolls and evil wizard from 2007 Castle. Not to also mention he's overshadowed by none Castle Lego villains in general. Like I barely hear anyone talking about Cedric the Bull.
Hey thanks for the update to these guys! Always more to learn for me and comment …. So helpful. Of the bad guys of this era my fav was Vladek too. As we know, a couple years later, During the fantasy era sets Lego went “all in” on the villains and their castles and fortresses and ships…
Yes Nexo Knights definitely are a great theme. I think theme went from 2016-18 with about 100 sets!!!! I have the castle but still looking for time to put it together. Maybe 🤔 will add in future videos…. Always amazed at number of themes and set that Lego releases!
this was my one and only castle theme as a kid, always wanted that one! Now I'm started to collect these old sets new.
Wow! That’s great. Every used old set has a few missing pieces and faded ones too so good hunting finding new old sets!!!
Agreed! Guessing your born 93-91
@ yep! 93
Princess Storm is so cool, nice video James.
Thanks!! I do love the Black red color combination and dramatic visor on her. Classic

I like it. Definetely not the worst castle in my opinion.
It sure displays nicely in my downstairs Lair!
Nexo Knights don’t count?
