  6074: Black Monarch's Castle is a Legend!
 
I don't know German, but I'm as suprised as they are! I can't give a direct link but go to... (URL) read: "6073 als Legende - hab ich was verpasst???" Translation at Alta Vista doesn't really help much. The text says, "On Trettys pictures of the (...) (22 years ago, 1-Oct-02, to lugnet.announce, lugnet.castle) !! 
 
  Re: Black Monarch's Castle is a Legend!
 
Who cares! How about a space legend! Flame away, Greg P.S. Although I enjoy my castle projects very much I sure would like to see Lego acknowledge that there are other fans of Legends out there besides Train and Castle! With the BSB and now this, (...)

(...) Heh-- I was *REALLY* confused for a second there, between all the set numbers and names :) 6073 als Legende - hab ich was verpasst??? - zany® 01.10.2002 21:06 (1) Re: 6074 als Legende - hab ich was verpasst??? - Jojo 01.10.2002 21:18 (0) And (...) (22 years ago, 1-Oct-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: 6074: Black Monarch's Castle is a Legend!
 
(...) Hi Felix, I too don't understand German, but a quick translation of Jojo's followup says something like "then that online toy-shop header was correct after all". Given the correction he makes on the title to 6074, I assume there is a valid (...) (22 years ago, 1-Oct-02, to lugnet.castle)

  Re: 6074: Black Monarch's Castle is a Legend!
 
(...) Sorry, I mistyped the setnumber - It IS 6074. (...) Today there was the opening of a new LEGO-Store in Cologne, and an other reader of 1000steine.de (Tretty) was there. (...) The setnumber of the Legend seems to be 10029. (...) (22 years ago, 1-Oct-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: 6074: Black Monarch's Castle is a Legend!
 
(...) Thanks for the update! Did you have any more info for us? TLC has had really good communication with Lugnet. Why did we see this in a Kmart add and now at a new store before an official announcement? Felix (22 years ago, 1-Oct-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: [6074] is a Legend!
 
(...) No need to flame. I think the answer is that the Legends line is driven by what kids will buy, not AFOLs. With SW kits out, I don't think TLC can put out classic space. And if they could, the logical thing to do would be to wait until the SW (...) (22 years ago, 1-Oct-02, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Black Monarch's Castle is a Legend!
 
(...) Most likely due to Star Wars, but perhaps due to how well Battrax did in the vote? (not that we need to start on whether or not Battrax was a fair choice again). Might also be just the "market trend" at the moment-- IE that test groups of kids (...) (22 years ago, 1-Oct-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: 6074: Black Monarch's Castle is a Legend!
 
(...) As was I. (...) Well, we can always hope, but 10036 and 10037 came in color boxes and were S@H exclusives. Now, if 6074 will be 10029, then what will 10027&10028 be? (...) -Kevin (22 years ago, 1-Oct-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: 6074: Black Monarch's Castle is a Legend!
 
Hello! (...) Hehe! In fact, in Germany the names of the sets do not have the importance as they may have in the US. The names of the sets are only shown in the catalogue and not printed on the boxes as well. Furthermore: The names vary between the (...) (22 years ago, 1-Oct-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: 6074: Black Monarch's Castle is a Legend!
 
Hello! (...) I'm affraid we are as surprised as you are. When the Legend-poll at www.lego.com was over I thought that the 6285 Black Seas Barracuda had made it. But then there was this confusing header on the Kmart (was it Kmart? I don't know (...) (22 years ago, 2-Oct-02, to lugnet.castle)

  Re: 6074: Black Falcon's Fortrees is a Legend!(corrected the name)
 
(...) Maybe the Main Lego Company took this from the Lego Direct 'drawing board' and rushed a production run through. The insane rate that the Mega Bloks Dragons sets are selling would definitely be a good reason why they would do that. -Mike (...) (22 years ago, 2-Oct-02, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: 6074: Black Falcon's Fortrees is a Legend!(corrected the name)
 
(...) I'd have to agree with you there. My loyalty has been tested, and I hate to say, it failed. The MB Dragon sets have wonderful shields and weapons, the bricks are getting better even. The figs of course still suck... those Tin's are nice (...) (22 years ago, 2-Oct-02, to lugnet.castle)

  Correction: 6074: Black Falcon's Fortress is a Legend!
 
(...) Ooohhhh, I am psyched! A pair of these 20 years ago is what got me hooked on the castle theme, and the Black Falcons are still my nostalgic favorite. Baby needs a few 10039's! John #388 (22 years ago, 2-Oct-02, to lugnet.castle)
