MOC: Castle Joust

Posted on by

Hear-ee, hear-ee!

In honor of the 40th anniversary of the establishment of his esteemed castle, the King of the Purple Crown has called for a joust and celebration!

His best knight, and three of the greatest knights from afar, have come hither to recreate the celebrated jousts from days of yore. Each one accompanied by their own trusty squire. Who will win this time? You decide!

  • The castle comes in at just around 1000 pieces, perfect for a $100 set (And could easily be knocked down a notch or two)
  • Features 4 knights, 4 squires, a guard, and an archer, each with alternate faces and alternate armor and weapons for the knights (and don’t forget the horses, too!)
  • Raise and lower the castle drawbridge using the winch on the side of the battlements! (String for the drawbridge not shown)
  • Modeled lovingly after castles of antiquity, but using modern construction materials!
  • The inside of the castle features a path, a well, weapon and armor racks, and a tilt barrier for the joust!
  • Click here for a gif animation of the castle (WARNING: Large file)

MOC: Sorahk

Posted on by

“Sorahk was a custom Bionicle I created for a Glatorian Series contest back in 2008. It combines parts from multiple Bionicle series: the Matoran blue body part, the Phantoka torso, the Skrall shield and Thorax launcher from the Glatorian series, the blue and orange Bohrok eye pieces (and blue Bohrok weapon), the Toa Inika Hahli arms and legs, and the Toa Mahri Nuparu shield with a Toa Mahri Matoro mask.” – Brickster_Tim

MOC: Village Defense

Posted on by

Along with a few extra minifigures, makeshift houses, and slightly altered Knights’ Kingdom II and Kingdoms sets, the horse-driven catapult rumbles into battle as the Lion Knights give weapons to the villagers and chase the frightened Dragon Knights out of town.

“This giant catapult was created for a Lego contest several years ago in which I was required to build (can you guess?) something to defend a village. You also might notice a clever use of slope bricks to simulate the female minifigure running in a dress.” – Brickster_Tim
