EDIT: I have turned this topic into a place where we, as Historical fans, can efficiently gather and support projects in these themes in Lego Ideas; so please feel free to add any that you find and I will amend this original post.

If you like any of the projects listed, please consider supporting them over on Lego Ideas.

Have you all seen these? Thoughts?

I'm not into the BBBs (brick-built beasts), but these are hilarious in the most positive way possible! :laugh:
Amazing idea, and brilliantly done!

It is a nice MOC, but I wouldn't pay £300 for it. I doubt it is very playable, as large four legged creations like that are notoriously unstable unless you pose the legs just right. I think I prefer the molded animal ones, but they are not really suitable for Ideas.

Someone asked about price in the comments, and although he can't know for sure, the creator compared it to Assembly Square in terms of weight, which cost $280. But Assembly Square had 1000 pieces more than this moc.

I reckon it'd be stable enough, although the overall size would need to come down just a tad.

I’m digging it! The Brachiosaur is neatly built.

love all the little features it has!

supported on LEGO Ideas aswell! ?

Great, I hoped that by sharing, somebody would support it like I have.

Maybe we should start a master thread of all Castle related Ideas projects so that we can efficiently add our support to new projects and increase the liklihood of one being made.

Excellent idea! :thumbup: :smug:

The Embassy subforum has a topic of its own just like that, as do the Sci-Fi and Train Tech subforums; so, perhaps you could just edit the title of this already established topic to Castle/Historical Projects on LEGO Ideas - Discussion and Advice. :shrug_oh_well:

Done. I'll look for some others to be entered into the thread when I get more time.

P.S. Perhaps you should add a disclaimer to the main post requesting users promote others' projects rather than their own. That is, unless you wouldn't mind. :shrug_confused:

It's something I hadn't considered, but I think I'll see how it goes first.

Here's an Idea that's been around for a while and could use support. Medieval Blacksmith by Namirob:

LEGO Ideas - Black Falcon's Fortress

I love it, sadly, that's the only actual Castle set over 1000 votes right now.

Only 3 "medieval" sets have made it ever to 10.000 and none were Castles :sad:

Mesadon Gatehouse is about to expire.

Classic Castle is a newer upcoming Castle project however.

I do love many of  the smaller Castle projects as well, but small sets have a hard time sticking around IDEAS for long :def_shrug:

I wanted to comment on the entries, but I'm overwhelmed by their sheer awesomness! :pir-oh:
Those are insane MOCs, really epic!

All you need to do is vote for the ones you would like to see made :classic:

Any support is appreciated for any of these projects.

The Oraculum Temple by @Elysiumfountain

Is this one considered historic by most people? I love the moc and have already supported it, but is it historic in nature?

It's supposed to be based upon/inspired after Greek mythology, something I presume is best at home within this subforum, hence here too. :shrug_confused:

I wonder if LEGO would ever do something that wonky / unaligned/ whatever you want to call it. I know the Old Fishing Store had a few tiles not quite aligned  and especially some random alignment of tiles on the roof, but was still pretty much a straight up and down build otherwise.
