The story
The elder people among us remember that long ago there was the powerful Black Brick Knights.
They were a powerful force in the kingdom. They didn't back down from any conflict.
But the time passed and they took down their swords, the new Lion Knights arrived, and tried to rule the kingdom.
So the kingdom was confused again, and nobody managed to bring peace to villagers.
Furthermore, in the confusion, the Orcs and the Undead turned the country to ruins.
The kingdom has fallen into adversity, but I believe the Black Brick Knights will not easily submit.
They returned to reestablish the kingdom and their old glory! They are back!
The castle
This set is inspired by "black knights" sets that came out 30 years ago. I combined them into one big set.
The shape of the castle basically resembles the stronghold that protects the village.
However, when the Sea Serpent appears, it transforms into a port.
Also, when enemies invade, it transforms into the powerful castle reminiscent of the "Black Knight's Castle" to protect the villagers.
The parts
This MOC has 2,988 parts including mini-figures, the ship, the horse cart and the accessories.
I first designed it with stud.io. After that, I made it with real parts to check its playability and mechanisms.
And the mini-figures were made by mixing existing mini-figure parts without new printing.
The play functions
Basically, it looks like the stronghold with knights and villagers.
But the main castle is made up of individual parts connected by clips, so it can be reassembled into the desired shape.
So, normally, the castle could be maintained peacefully as "Knight's Stronghold Village".
And sometimes when "Sea Serpent" comes, it transforms into the port and can welcome the ship.
Then, when powerful enemies appear, the village can transform into the castle like "Black Knight's Castle" and stand strong against them. And the ballista on the tower can be combined with a "Horse Cart" and used as a "Siege Cart".
I think you will be able to feel the various sensibilities of the old Lego Castle with this one set.
