Don't forget to check out Holly and Sands videos to let us know who you think won the challenge! Feel free to ignore the fact that I might not have used the required number of minifigures in my build 😅
I think it was a maximum number of minifigures, from what I think I heared during the group call. Besides, the dragon probably ate a few as well.
Your orc army turned out so good! I really need to buy that chima big fig for mine.
Thanks! Yeah you definitely should. It's great!
This turned out so well! I especially love the inclusion of the Ninjago dragon for the vampire knights. Glad we were able to hook you up with some awesome figs 😊
Thanks man! Couldn't have done all this without BAM, that's for sure haha
Thank you for the Huck-up, most appreciated ❤️
7:13 Tahu peekin over the shoulder 👀
Always lol
Seriously a fun challenge between the 3 of you. Out of all the designs, I think yours was the most clean and the most professional. You also managed a more uniform look for the armies, while still keeping very individualized minifigs and some of them were really good. The castle wall was also way more polished and even the groundwork, while basic, just had a more realistic look which I like. For all those things, I think you won the challenge, despite cutting some corners like adding a complete dragon from an existing set, or a tree from the Horizon Zero Dawn set. The stuff that you did fully built for yourself was great though and just a bit better than what the others came up with.
Having said that, I think all 3 of you had a superfun video and made excellent armies and mocs. I wish I could have seen a little more of all the extra stuff that Firebird and Sands had made but didn't use. There was so much fun stuff in those armies, probably some good stuff to use in future builds.
Thanks for making these videos, I subbed to this channel as well. This wasn't my first Firebird video, but I'm looking forward to some more now.
i love how he used cole's face and kai's face for the minifigures & the egalt set and modified it!
7:38 That dagger is from Prince of Persia! I only point it out because everyone forgets about that LEGO line 😂 (Unless of course LEGO double dipped, but I’m pretty sure that dagger is the McGuffin from the movie)
When you said the lioj knight prince didn't have a weapon I was like "Oh, is he going to be a lazy prince that doesn't want to do anything ever."
Wow, this was a great collaboration challenge! I love castle and army building so it was very interesting to see how you all built your factions up. Yours is definitely the standout Firebird! Really enjoy your walkthrough of the factions and each have a good consistent structure of leaders, support unit and beast pairing. Plus the minifies were unique with good armour and weapons! Your castle build and and landscaping was also the best! I'd say you win this challenge over Sands and Holly by a fair margin!
Thanks so much! It was a lot of fun and I love how we all took different approaches. Makes it much more interesting!
I think you clearly and precisely explained what I liked about the armies too. Each have a unique look, but feel like a uniform army. This is something I loved from putting together a Warhammer 40K / Fantasy army and that clearly works well with lego factions too.
You do great work. It’s crazy how small your channel is considering it’s by far the best Lego channel of its kind ive seen. Keep it up man
A skeleton army would be a nice addition as theyre my favorite faction
I was going to include skeletons but I ran out of time, unfortunately... I had the parts ready and everything!
@@firebirdbricks mayby next time👍
The Tower and wall Moc was great and I loved the variety of Orcs and Dragon knights!
Thanks! I think those ended up being my favorite factions as well, but they were all fun to make!
Black Falcon superiority, except for when the green dragon faction shows up, then they are my favorites
Phenomenal video I loved the Dragon leaders, just wanted to point out that the swords you called longswords are arming swords, longswords are two-handed.
Normally the dragon Knights are Evil so this was a nice breath of fresh air😀
Definitely an awesome challenge, love seeing more medieval and pirate themed videos and challenges. Definitely makes me want to build a full castle watching this lmao
Thanks man! Castle building is fun. You should definitely give it a shot. I am sure you would kill it!
So many great factions! I think the Orcs turned out so great because of the diversity of pieces. Seriously well done.
You didn’t get any basil figs in that half box because the three are on the top right row, back three. Meanwhile the goat herders are in the bottom right row, middle three
I’m impressed, you made the red dragon knights look cool instead of childish.
Really like the size of the armies you built, seems reasonable and obtainable for casual fans. I always considered 20+ minifigures a decent size force
Great collab guys! I really enjoyed the orc army and the fright nights. Glad you out those in your final moc.
More Classic Space Vids!!! PEASE!!
The Costom Lego Ninjago dragon is probably the best dragon ever🐲
This is a great work of Lego designing of midevil. I would suggest adding one catapult for each castle. Good luck with Lego midevil building collab challenge, by the way, man 😎
Man your content is underrated honestly
Maybe the real collaboration was the FIREBIRD50 we made along the way
Great stuff! I love seeing the variety you're able to get within each faction!
Thanks! These were a lot fun to put together.
Awesome video
Crown knights were probably my favorite
I think that if I were to built a LEGO castle army, I'd focus on one of the more unusual and obscure castle subthemes - Ninja (NOT Ninjago). For those unfamiliar, Ninja was a castle subtheme focused on Shogunate-era Japan, and yes, it _was_ a castle subtheme.
Either that or I'd do something in the style of the canceled Europa theme.
This was probably the most unique “I Built ___ in 7 Days” video I’ve seen! I love how you guys incorporated the MOC building aspect to the challenge!
Thanks Micah! The build challenge was very enjoyable.
I feel like firebird bricks is the best Lego youtuber. frequent uploads, good concepts, cool builds, good thumbnails, editing. All round incredible UA-camr.
Wow, thanks! Glad you enjoy my videos. I appreciate the nice comment!
Thank you so much for replying. This never happens
yeah i agree
I’ve got 3 green dragon knights with their helmets and a crossbow and swords + shields. It’s my only memory of the set they came in, plus the 2 goats and 3 chickens. Great times
it's always weird seeing the bricks & minifigs I go to irl in these videos lol
It’s a great store!
I love this video and i have idea can you do with pirates !
I think that gamorean guards would go well with the orc faction
Love the video love to see all the sick army’s
Wow those custom helmets are sick!! Keep using them
all I can say is Wow! I am a Holly fan but this is seriously impressive
Maybe you soul'd make the Wolf bandits army, they came back in the medival Town Square set
I will definitely be buying those when they come out on PAB online!
Great video bro! 🔥 The final castle build looks great especially considering the limited space.
Thanks man! I’m happy with it for the amount of time I had to work on it.
The animal builds give each army that special sauce to make things way more interesting 🦁 🐲
Thanks man! It was fun to be able to include them.
awesome video, love all your factions
For your orcs u should have used monks/gekos
from Ninjago but overall it's good 👍
Dang. This is gonna be a hard choice. But personally, I think that Holly's moc is the best. Working on a VERY small budget of minifigures and weapons, while also enhancing the fantasy feel really bodes well in her favor. Sands definitely had the best army, and you had the best budget for a large creative project, but I'm gonna have to go with Holly.
Also... being in a similar situation with very few castle figs and just now getting into the fandom, really persuades me to choose that moc. I really like to see how creativity is used, especially on such a small scale. The tree was absolutely my favorite part of Holly's whole build. I just... it felt like there was life and it felt very unique to me. It wasn't embellished with a ton of detail like yours and Sands, but it was much simpler. Using existing bricks and really just spending money on minifigure torsos and parts from the minifigure tower really shows that creativity like an average Lego builder (though, I will not assume that Holly is one! She has much more creativity than I do).
In the end, everyone did a great job with their mocs, and I learned a lot from everyone's builds. But I nominate Team Holly/Lion Knights as the victors in this contest of the builders!
Though, I do have a question for you, Firebird. How on earth do you get that many Black Falcon minifigures in bulk? I'm trying not to spend toooooo much money, but I really want more Black Falcons in my own kingdom that I am working on. I am also working on setting up a stop motion studio for a little project I may or may not be working on, and those suckers are hard to get my hands on. Do you think torsos would be a good start?
I'd love to see another medieval contest by the way! If you do, BrickWarriors sells Stain Glass Window pieces online with the crests of other castle kingdoms if you are ever interested in making an interior moc. I'm thinking about getting one for my Black Falcons. Again, great job!
Fair take! Glad you enjoyed the videos.
Check out Lego.com and go to the pick a brick online section. Search for set 10305 and you will find that you can individually purchase black falcon torsos and legs for pretty cheap!
Those Brick Warriors glass window pieces are very tempting. I will probably buy some eventually!
I can understand choosing Holly's Moc because of the amount of creativity used with very little to work with, it is what I liked about hers too. Restriction tends to build creativity for sure!
And indeed you can build Black Falcon, Lion Knight's (with 2 slightly different torsos) and Forestmen minifigures from the Pick a brick online LEGO shop. They cost slightly under 3 dollars (or 3 euros) for a complete figure, which is going to be more if you start equipping them with swords, shield and such. Still, this is probably cheaper than buying them on Bricklink and if you buy enough of them, over 40 dollars (or euros) I believe, you get free shipping included.
There are also some of the viking torsos and a bunch of medieval townsfolk things to choose from, quite a wealth for a medieval builder!
@@firebirdbricks Thanks man! I just finished my order! Really great deal! I'm definately subscribing to the channel now, because I feel like I can learn a lot!
@@pinobluevogel6458 Thanks!
@@MadHawkMoody No problem at all, have fun with the minifigs and medieval stuff, for me it has been a blast so far!
I think u should try and build a mech factory for the mechs that u made
Awesome video and love the usage of the lotr figs! 💪🔥
Thanks!! Wish I could have gotten my hands on more Lord of the Rings parts.
Hey I know this may not be the right video but you should make a mech that has a launch out escape method
I want those Crown Knights
I love your creative use of pieces!
Thank you! :)
@@firebirdbricks Thanks for responding dude!
Yes! more castle content! :)
So epic 😍🔥 Love seeing so many forestmen in one shot!
Thank you! I enjoyed watching your medieval videos while I was working on my army.
nice to see you do a new type of video! love ur stuff man 😄
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
The mispronunciation of Basil every single time is KILLINGGG me
Bazil or bass ill
Great video
Finally found someone thats a youtuber in Michigan
Love your vids ❤🎉😊
Who else saw Lloyd hiding in one of the dragon knights
I am sooooo lucky that I have a bricks and minifigs pretty close to me which is funny because I live on a island in Canada called Newfoundland!😊 it’s just funny that they would put one there!😊
Amazing, I’ve always loved castle sets but as a gen z they are very hard to find, excluding the Lion Knight’s castle as it was too expensive :( Great video! P.S. glad to see that factor is growing, the only other place I’ve seen them is with GoodTimesWithScar
Hopefully we get some cheaper castle sets again at some point!
what a great collab! 👏
Thanks! We had a good time with this.
How are the archers gonna use their shields if they need both hands to shoot?
There is a cool mech with a green lightsaber can you make a video about that plsssssss
You’ve earned a sub keep up the good work 🎉
Fantasy era Dwarves
