Crusaders (1984-1992)

The initial release of the Crusaders theme began in 1984 with King's Castle. This castle was one of the largest Lego Castle sets produced. Twelve Knights and four horses were included. The walls of the castle could be opened to play inside the castle. The castle itself had unusual architecture. The Crusaders were released the same year as the Black Falcons in 1984. They were the enemies of the Black Falcons. Over the years, Crusaders were included in many sets along with the Black Falcons, Forestmen, and Black Knights. Examples include the Guarded Inn in 1986, Castle Mini Figures in 1988, and Knights' Challenge, a set that was the successor after the 1979 Knights' Tournament, in 1989 (ten years later). A unusual set was the Armor Shop in 1986, which was the only set to have the rare black short sword and a Crusader Flag.


The last Crusader castle released was King's Mountain Fortress in 1990. This was one of the first sets to feature the newly invented knight helmet visor and armor pieces. Crossbows and glow in the dark ghost were also new pieces introduced. King's Mountain Fortress was also the first Lego castle to be mounted on a raised baseplate. Two exclusive elements the set included was the only Crusader queen, and a black colored bird. A small Crusader set, King's Catapult appears to be the only Lego castle set to be released in 1991. Finally, the last Crusader set produced was Treasure Cart released in 1992, another small Crusader set that included a knight pulling a treasure chest cart. After that, the Crusader series was put to a halt. It was not until 2001, when Lego re-released the well known Guarded Inn re-numbered (#10000) as a Lego Legend, under popular demand. The set consisted of two Crusader knights, a mounted Black Falcon Knight, and an inn keeper, staying over at an inn. This set was the only set to include red Tudor walls. One change in the reissue was the horse saddle had two clips instead of one. Lego Castle had horse saddles with a single clip (except the horse barding saddles) at one side until 1992 when that was changed to two clips.

Forestmen (1987-1990)

The Forestmen theme was introduced in 1987 when Lego Castle released the first Forestmen set Camouflaged Outpost. This set was a hideout that featured a large tree adjacent to a cave where the Forestmen lived. The interior of the set could be opened to see inside the cave and enabled more play. The set included six Forestmen minifigures, the most Forestmen minifigures in a single set. This set was also one of the first sets to have a brown colored horse. In 1988, the Forestmen's Hideout was released; it was a small hideout that housed two Forestmen. The following year, the Forestmen's River Fortress, which was the largest Forestmen set, was released. This hideout was an abandoned castle covered with trees, vines and leaves, where it was surrounded by a moat. It included five Forestmen, and a Crusader paddling a raft. In 1990, the last original Forestmen hideout set, Forestmen's Crossing, was released. This set had a unique baseplate of a small stream printed on it with white dots marked on the studs to indicate where to place the pieces. The set featured an old tower and a large tree which were connected by a rope bridge that ran across the stream. This was the only set to include a Forestwoman minifigure. A few forestmen were included in other small non-Forestmen Castle sets, such as Castle Mini Figures. After 1990, the series was discontinued. In 1996, a new Forestmen sub theme was released, called Dark Forest.

Black Knights (1988-1994)

The first well known Black Knights set released was the Black Monarch's Castle in 1988. This set marked the beginning of the Black Knights series. The enormous black castle was guarded by twelve knights, four of them mounted on horses. This was one of the first sets to include the horse armor piece. Also, the triangular dragon shields were invented that stood for the Black Knights. An interesting feature for the castle was it could be opened and closed using the special "hinge" pieces for more play in the interior. In 1989, three Black Knights were included in the Knights' Challenge set. Two more Black Knights sets were released in 1990, which were Knights Stronghold a town gate set that featured five knights along with a big catapult, and Black Monarch's Ghost. These two sets were the last sets to carry the Legoland banner. The same two sets were re-released in 1992 with the Lego System banner on the boxes, but the instruction booklets of the sets, still had the Legoland banner. The only changes that were made to the 1992 re-release of the two sets, were the horse saddles. The saddles were changed from one clip to two clips since 1992 was the year that introduced the altered Lego horse saddle.


In 1992, Lego introduced the Black Knights Castle which was originally called Dungeon Master's Castle until 1994, when the name was changed. The castle was mounted on a baseplate. This particular set was considered one of the best Black Knights castles ever released. This magnificent set included ten knights, a Wolfpack renegade prisoner, and a glow in the dark ghost. Like Black Monarch's Castle, it included the horse armor piece and two mounted knights had helmet visors, armor pieces and new dragon plumes available in four different colors just like the feather plumes. The oval shield with a red and blue dragon printed, was also one of the new pieces introduced. The older dragon triangular shield was still used in the set. This set was the first major castle to have minifigures with facial hair, mustache and beard faces beside the usual plain, Lego smilie face.


Two other main Black Knights sets were released the same year as the Black Knights Castle in 1992. They were the Sea Serpent (the biggest Lego Castle boat ever released and was also the last set to include Black Falcon figures) and Black Knight, a small set that included a single, full armored knight, along with accessories. The Black Knights series continued until 1994 when they were replaced by the Royal Knights in 1995. One of the last Black Knights sets released was King's Catapult in 1993, a miniset that included a knight who manned a tiny catapult. It was re-released in 1998.

Wolfpack Renegades (1992-1993)

The Wolfpack Renegades were a group of bandits in the LEGO Castle world. Only three sets were made, making it and Dark Forest the smallest Castle sub-themes. Their hideout was 6075 Wolfpack Tower.

Dragon Masters (1993-1995)

The Dragon Masters collection was released in August 1993. Majisto the Wizard and his glow in the dark wand were introduced to the Castle series. This was the first time for Lego Castle to have a magic theme. The powerful wizard controlled the fearsome fire breathing dragons that could fly with red wings. The green dragons were another new element to the series. Majisto also commanded his own army of Dragon Master knights. These knights had newly designed faces. The Dragon Masters consisted of magic and mythical themes. The largest Dragon Masters set was Fire Breathing Fortress. Other main sets were Majisto's Magical Workshop and Dark Dragon's Den. The total number of Dragons included in the Dragon Masters sets were only three.


In Europe and Asia, a total of seven Dragon Masters sets were released in 1993. But in North America, only four sets were released that same year. The remaining three sets, Magic Shop,Dragon Defender, and Medieval Knights were released in 1994. One possible reason why this occurred was because in 1994, no new castle sets were planned to be released. So it was decided that these sets would fill in the gap. Other smaller Dragon Masters sets were released in 1994, such as Majisto's Tower and Dragon Master Chariot but they were only mini castle sets. The last Dragon Masters set was Wizard's Cart that featured Majisto carrying his favorite wand and traveling with a cart (loaded with a treasure chest), in 1995. Since then, this marked the end of the Dragon Masters reign. But the Dragon Masters sets inspired other castle sets to have magic and fantasy themes such as the Fright Knights.

Knights' Kingdom (2000)

Knights' Kingdom centered around a conflict involving the Lions, led by King Leo, and the Bulls, led by outlaw Cedric The Bull.

The Lions castle was 6098 King Leo's Castle, while the Bulls did not have a castle.

Knights' Kingdom II (2004–2006)

Knights' Kingdom II, aimed at six to twelve year-olds, was first officially announced in November 2003, in the British version of the LEGO magazine. In spring 2004, the large action figures were released in Europe, whilst America received them several months later. Both continents obtained the playsets in the summer. Knights' Kingdom chronicles the legends of the Kingdom of Morcia, a fantasy world, and the adventures that take place within it. The main characters are the knights of the opposing factions. It is a revamped version of an earlier Knights' Kingdom LEGO theme, featuring larger, action-figure like characters as well as more colourfully attired mini-figures in the traditional sets. While officially titled Knights' Kingdom on its packaging, it is popularly known as Knights' Kingdom II in order to differentiate it from the original theme which only included LEGO mini-figures and featured different knight, king, and villain characters. It was also made into a trading card game and book series. 10176 King's Castle is part of this line, but is not in the official storyline. With the emergence of a new Castle line next year, and no emergence of sets for next year, the line has been discontinued. Year 2004 (MMIV) was a leap year starting on Thursday of the Gregorian calendar. ...

Storyline

Long ago, a great sorcerer from another dimension invaded the peaceful lands of Ankoria, using his magic powers to conquer the land and its people and turning the animals of the land into monsters. He was only defeated when Orlan, a powerful Knight of the Knights of the Citadel created the Shield of Ages, and used it to banish the Great Sorcerer. He then founded the Kingdom of Morcia, becoming its first King, and established the order of the Hero Knights, a group of men dedicated to protecting the land and people. The silver Anglia knight, commissioned as a trophy in 1850, intended to represent the Black Prince. ... For other uses, see Monarch (disambiguation). ...


Generations later, the aging but wise King Mathias was the current ruler of the Kingdom, and Morcia prospered under his rule. However, his close advisor, Lord Vladek, was furious that years ago, he had lost the throne to Mathias in the Great Tournament, and he had been plotting revenge on the King ever since his defeat. Soon, he secretly captured the King and took control of the land with an army of magically corrupted Knights, commonly known as Shadow Knights, due to their dark armor. The people of Morcia could do nothing to break Vladek's hold on the land. But four remaining Knights, still loyal to King Mathias, Sir Jayko the Quick, Sir Rascus the Joker, Sir Santis the Strong and Sir Danju the Wise, joined together to investigate the King's disappearance. Sir Jayko found the King imprisoned deep within the dungeons under the Castle, where the Knights battled and defeated the Shadow Knights guarding him, and freed King Mathias. They had hoped that freeing him would stop Lord Vladek's rule, but Mathias told them that Vladek was using magical powers from the Great Sorcerer to defeat anyone who challenged him. The Knights' only hope was to recover the Shield of Ages from the Citadel of Orlan, deep within the Moorlands a land corrupted by the Great Sorcerers magic. The Knights hid the injured King Mathias in the forests, and then vowed to find the Shield of Ages.


Led by Sir Danju, the four Knights left Morcia and entered the Moorlands. At the Border Outpost, Sir Santis took the key to the Citadel from the Shadow Knights guarding it. They pressed onwards, with Danju and Jayko charting the way, and Rascus and Santis gathering food. After many adventures, fighting Shadow Knights and Moorlands beasts, they reached the Citadel of Orlan. At the entrance, they met an old man, who told them that only the best Knights could enter. The Knights challenged his proclamation, but he vanished into the air. Santis raised the drawbridge, allowing the Knights in. Danju showed them the way through the corridors of the Citadel. Together, Jayko and Santis overpowered a giant serpent, whilst Rascus climbed the tower and opened the way in with the key. The other Knights entered. When they reached the top of the tower, they were about to take the Shield of Ages, but Orlan himself, clad in mighty armour, stopped them. Jayko was about to attack him, but Danju instead asked the Orlan kindly for the Shield, claiming that they needed it to stop Vladek. Orlan, moved by compassion, gave the Knights the Shield. The Knights rejoiced, and began the journey back to Morcia.


On the way back to Morcia, the Knights encountered Vladek himself, mounted on a horse. Danju stayed behind and used a catapult to hold him back, whilst Jayko, Santis, and Rascus hurried to Castle Talonjay. There, they stopped a force of Shadow Knights from taking the Castle with siege towers. After that, the three younger Knights regrouped with Danju, and continued onwards towards the Castle of Morcia and the Grand Tournament. Along the way, they met up with King Mathias, who was by now fully healed. There, they learned that Lord Vladek was about to become King, as he had already defeated the other contestants for the crown with his magic. The four Knights and their King rushed to the Grand Tournament, to stop Lord Vladek from winning the Tournament and becoming the un-rightful King of Morcia. As King Mathias, Danju, Santis and Rascus held back the Shadow Knights, Jayko battled Vladek for the fate of Morcia. In a joust, Vladek knocked the young Knight off his horse, and started shooting magic lightning at Jayko, but Jayko grabbed the Shield of Ages, and used it to reflect the lightning back at Vladek who was thrown to the ground by the power of his own lightning, defeating him. The Shadow Knights were freed from Vladek's curse, King Mathias was restored to the throne, and the Knights were given high honors for their deeds. But soon, Lord Vladek escaped from his prison and fled far away. Everyone in the Kingdom knew that he would be back someday.


The four Knights stopped Vladek and Mathias stripped him of his armor, sword, and shield, then locked him in the Dungeons. But Vladek fled to Ankoria, built a Dark Fortress, and created more Shadow Knights. Mathias used the Heart of the Shield on the Knights, giving them new armor, swords, and shields.


Vladek claimed the castle of Ankornia, and gathered an army to stop the knights. He got his power from a mask. The Shadow Knights were defeated by the Knights, and the king asked for them to open a gate, before they gather an army. However, they failed and opened the gate at the last second. Danju was captured, so Jayko came to save him.


Jayko fought Vladek on the top of the fortress, and soon enough, Jayko destroyed the mask. Sapped of his power, Vladek disappeared again. Later, Jayko was appointed the new king by Mathais.


Characters

This is a list of the characters in the Knights’ Kingdom line.

  • Lord Vladek: (Spring 2004-Fall 2004, 2005-2006) He was the adviser to King Mathias, but he put him in a dungeon and claimed the King had gone missing, and that a tournament would be held to determine the new king. He entered, and planned to use the power of the Book of Morcia to win and become king. However, the four Hero Knights found Mathias and defeated Vladek. Some time after, Vladek fled, and found himself in the lost kingdom of Ankoria, where he regained power by creating the Vladmask, and took over the kingdom. It was here he adopted the title of “Lord Vladek”. He threated to use the Vladmask to destroy Morcia, but Sir Jayko destroyed the Vladmask and stopped him. Vladek has a dark visage, with burning embers for eyes and a mouth set in a permanent grimace. When his Vladmask is not on, he can cause fear in even the most stalwart of the Hero Knights. His emblem is the scorpion, and it is set into his shield for all to know. Vladek's sword is of the darkest coal, sinister and deadly. Vladek is an oddity among the Knights’ Kingdom series kits, in that he is the one of the very few figures to have only one movable arm via a dial on their back. This is supposedly because of his skill with the sword, and disdain of the shield. Vladek's sword is perfectly capable of deflecting all arms that can be brought to bear, and it is rumored he can split an arrow in mid air.now Vladek has a new black and silver armor,red cape,and Sorcerers Sword which is capable of deflecting boulders,and creating things out of ruins.

Story: Lord Vladek has returned seeking the power of the Mistlands Tower, so that he can take over Morcia. This time he has hired an army of Rogue Knights instead of his usual Shadow Knights. The Rogue Knights are led by Dracus and his lieutenant, Weapons Master Karzon. In Morcia, Jayko, now King after defeating Vladek, hears about Vladek's return and his army of rogue knights, and how he's after the power of the Mistlands Tower. After hearing this, King Jayko teams up with two newly trained knights, Sir Kentis and Sir Adric, who must help King Jayko defend the tower from Lord Vladek and his army of Rogue Knights. In the end, "The Shield of Ages" is reforged by the mysterious Blacksmith (who is hinted as being the first king of Morcia, Orlan), the Shield is used to imprison Lord Vladek in an orb on top of the tower, the Rogue Knights get trapped in a dungeon, and Morcia is saved.

Their color scheme consists of dark red and black. For other uses, see Skeleton (disambiguation). ...

  • 852007 Knight's Shield

The continuation of this theme in 2008 appears to remove the skeleton faction, replacing them with orcs (or goblins) with troll allies/slaves. These orcs have sand green skin, and new weapons. The trolls wield large clubs. Their emblem is an orc or troll skull, suggesting an alliance with the 2007 skeleton faction. Another faction is introduced; dwarfs, who are allied to the 'Crown Knights' as evidenced by their same color scheme and the emblem of a crown, and the fact that they fight the same enemy. However, a rumored storyline is that the Necromancer is behind these attacks, somehow influencing the mind of the Goblin King, and forcing him to do battle with the Humans and Dwarfs. This has yet to be confirmed by the LEGO Group. Lego Group is a family-owned company, based in Billund, Denmark and best known for the manufacture of Lego-brand toys. ...
