Product Description

Editorial Review

The Castle of Morcia was a nice enough place when it was presided over by a kind and benevolent king but it just hasnt been the same since Vladek, the evil scorpion emblazoned villain of LEGOs medieval storyline, took over the place. Now its up to the assortment of good knights to recapture the castle. This set of building bricks from LEGO features numerous tunnels, secret passages, and traps. Also included are small figures of the King of Morcia and all five knights. Of course since this is a LEGO set, the pieces are infinitely interchangeable, so long after youve followed the prescribed illustrated step-by-step plan to construct the castle, youre free to imagine and build an infinite variety of new configurations. --Charlie Williams

Product Description

The Castle of Morcia is the King's home and, unfortunately, the castle that Vladek, the Dark Knight, overtakes and transforms from good to evil. Here, the good Knights must search through tunnels, caves and traps for the Book of Morcia to break the magical link that gives Vladek his powers. Set includes mini figures of all five Knights and the King of Morcia, plus 520 LEGO pieces. Requires 2 "AA" batteries. (included)

4.0 out of 5 stars Minifigures in Shining Armor, Rejoice!, April 9, 2005

To all those Lego Castle-series afficianados out there - who aren't six years old :) - Lego has been savvy enough to bring back the old yellow minifigures-in-shining armor. The Castle Morcia is the creme-de-la-creme of all the available sets. Not only do you get a mildly ingenious, modular castle that can switch alliegences on the fly, but you get seven unique minifigures to populate it (not to mention scorpions, a frog, a day-glo spider and a skeleton!). From the ostensibly good King Mathias and his multi-colored Round Table (each of his four knights not only has a name, but a unique face and personalized sword, shield and facemask!) to the evil Morgoth - Melkor - Vladek, yes, that's it, each minifigure is armed to the teeth and looks the part, enough to intimidate any other medieval Lego minifigures you might have laying around. The set even includes a freaky-looking robotic scorpion/catapult! How can you resist the allure? You cannot, lego-maniac.
If you're a kid at heart, and there's an $80 void in your life that could be filled by little plastic knights in shiny armor and their awesome castle, the Castle Morcia will do it in spades. Or, if you actually have a kid and want to see him doing something non-video game related, the ever-useful trait of building can be fostered with this set. Whatever your age group, enjoy.

My 6 yr old son rec'd this as a gift, and he and my husband put it together over a couple of days. Although it isn't as big as I expected, my son and my 8 yr old daughter play with it for hours on end. His greatest wish is to now have the remaining sets in the Knight's Kingdom group. They even choose to play with this over the Gamecube! Lots of figures make this a great toy. Definitely recommended!
