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!

I got this toy and it was fun to build and to play with.At first my mom thought it was a waste of money but then she told me to buy it on my own money.So i bought it and i had a blast.Then she saw how much fun it was and payed me the money and told me it was her who payed for it ok.So get this toy and you might get something back!!!!!!!!!!!

I bought this for my 6 year old son. He has been able to put this together on his own and he enjoys it. It's the only toy he will abandon his game cube for to sit and play with. The theme is fun for this age since it focuses on knights, sword-fighting, etc. And since there's additional components and kingdom sets we can puchase, he will become more imaginative.
I'm very pleased with this lego set and would highly recommend it.

The castle rotates from the good knight castle to the bad knights castle, which I didn't realize when I purchased it. I got 2 in one !! My son and his brother (Ages 5 & 10) play with it all the time. I used it as a rainy day activity because it takes time to assemble. Although the whole thing doesn't need to be assembled to play. You can play with each section as you complete it.

It is good but you can break it to easily. Don't get me wrong! I love this set, but it is kind of boring. But overall, worth it.

Even though it took 6 years for me to complete it, it was very fun except for the time i fell asleep while i was building and crushed the entire thing with my parachute pants. If you have a lot of time on your hands, get this lego set...just don't fall asleep while you're building.
