Well I just got one thing to say. THANK YOU! The Black Falcon's Fortress is probably the best castle that Lego has come out with, certainly in terms of bricks for your buck (or in this case, your pound), and those Black Falcons figs are just the (...)

(...) As far as I recall, the original 6074 set had some spare parts including (as far as I know the only LEGO castle set that really had spare parts). My theory is that the new LEGEND don't include those spares. My two cents Yaron "Webrain" Dori (22 years ago, 3-Oct-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.castle)
