Retro Rebuilds – The King’s Castle

My very first LEGO® set was bestowed upon me in the late 80s. Santa kindly bought me set 6080: King’s Castle set. The set was first released in 1984, but I received it a few years later. Almost 40 years on, I still own that set. Like many childhood toys, it’s been living in a storage box, along with other old LEGO sets. It’s been in the loft and for a short time even visited the shed. As today is the 90th Anniversary...

10305: Lion Knights’ Castle Set Review Part 1

Much like the Classic Space sets, LEGO® fans look upon the Castle sets with great fondness. The medieval-inspired sets debuted in the late 70s and have appeared in many forms since. Over the years, various factions were introduced and it’s those sets which are considered the golden age of LEGO Castle. With so many sets forming the various aspects of LEGO Castle, it’s a lot more difficult to pinpoint a singular set to...
