Am I the only one ready for a Black Knight counterpart castle?
In all seriousness though, this for me is the greatest Lego set of all time
-
It seems pretty clear to me that the overall winner will be a space, castle, or pirate set. For the definitive 90th anniversary set it only makes sense.
What was surprising to me was the passion of the Bionicle community as it is a theme that wasn't really on my radar. This vote has opened my eyes to it and I think Bionicle fans can take heart that this is showing TLG that there is demand for a reboot.
I'd predict there will some sort of Bionicle set in the next few years that comes from this market research....oh I mean "vote"

Had this set as a kid and I think it gets a little bit of a bad rap. Obviously it is no 6086, but nonetheless had great playability.
Sadly, I gave it to my little brother and it disappeared into the sands of time
-
Wow, great build! Would absolutely love if this inspired TLG to release something similar. Would be a first day purchase for me
-
As an adult I've been collecting the missed sets of my childhood and I have to agree with you. 6081 is ok, but it pales in comparison to many of the other castles and especially my all-time castle favorite of 6086

These two factions were right in my childhood heyday of lego and I absolutely had them battling each other and Wolfpack. I had one or two Crusaders and Black Falcons too, but not enough to matter.
I've never thought of ?? Italy and ?? France the same country, so it wasn't unreasonable in my mind for Black Knights and Dragon Knights to be different
But that is the beauty of Lego....to each their own
-
Forestmen, Black Knights, and Wolfpack for me.
An updated Forestmen set has the potential to be epic

Really like the captain's cabin interior

Yep, I am in Oregon and in the same boat here. I ordered mine March 31st 9:02pm PST and it is still in the warehouse. Trying my best to be patient.

If I could only use one word. Brilliant and breathtaking!

Thanks Medz,
That was exactly the info I was needing. I will do that and get some more pictures posted

Absolutely stunning lego set. I've never made a first day purchase before, but will for this.
Getting one for me and one for my 6yo son. I imagine this will be similar to those lucky kids who had original black seas barracuda as a child (finally got my own original BSB 2 years ago
)

Appreciate the comment. Yes, I have more pictures, but the system seems to be limiting how much content I can post.
Not sure if it is because I am new or if I am doing something wrong.
If someone could kindly direct me to a newbie posting thread (I tried searching for one, but wasn't able to find it) Thanks!

Hey everyone,
Lurked here for a while, but just recently joined and wanted to post my MOD/MOC using 70413 as a base and changing it to a Bluecoat ship.
I swapped out all the red for blue, new sails, and a few other changes including a throwback figurehead you may recognize

Practice post

Sabre Island for me
10305 Lion Knights' Castle 90th anniversary set
in LEGO Historic Themes

In regards to the obsession with goats I think it is just a rarity thing (unless there is some unknown correlation between being a goat rancher and an AFOL). This the only time I’ve wished a goat was in a set:

I might be in the minority here, but I would much rather see the castle budget go toward shields, barding, weapons, mini-figs, etc.
Edit: added barding
