Viking Fortress, Dragon's Lair, and the Witcher cave are absolute classics. Can't quite believe people went for a generic grey castle over some of the other entries.
That's one of the most, if not the most beautiful and technically impressive sets ever designed, official and unofficial, imo. I'm still super disappointed your creation didn't make the cut. It's something that pushes the boundaries of Lego in terms of construction and creativity. Thank you for submitting it.
My favorite lego castle (maybe of all time) that did not win was in series 5. It was standard grey with a really tall spired tower, adjacent to a vertical towerlike keep both rising from a multi-tier base an courtyard surrounded 4 smaller rounded towers in the front. It was 1 of your top 3 picks featured in your series 5, medieval submissions video. The thing was simply stunning. It appeared huge, spacially intriging, refined in detail, and absolutely gorgeous. There was so much going on from many different design perpestives it left me wondering: How on earth did the designer manage to pull it all off and stay within the 4000 peice limit? It's one thing to go into heavy detailing with lots of intericate parts used in clever ways...its an entirely different animal to be peice rescouseful while also still being betailed! As kids, we HAD to be parts resourceful with our lego...what you had, was all you had...no bricklink, no ordering from lego's entire current peice catalog...umm NOPE! And when it comes to overall composition/layout of that castle, well it's kind of a masterpiece, and I studied/hold a degree in architecture. In my mind, its hard for me to come up with a better design considering everything I ve mentioned, and trust me ive spent many hours trying.
Great list. I think the sushi market would be top of my list. It would maki me happy to build. (No apologies for that pun, After listening to all of your puns in the video, Studlord)
Maybe it's wishful thinking on my part, but between the new steampunk CMF in series 27 and the fact that some of their competitors are releasing popular steampunk sets, I'm hopeful Lego is actually thinking about producing some steampunk sets.
Lego is really missing the boat on some cool themes these days. Pantasy, Funwhole, BlueBrixx, etc. are making all these cool Steampunk sets, and Cyberpunk, Old West, medieval/castle, etc., while Lego keeps pumping out yet another Star Wars ship we've already had :(

Designer of The Floating Waterfall Castle, thank you so much! I'll try again in the future!

Thanks for featuring Dragon's Lair, I'm glad you liked the idea 😄
LEGO should take on some designers with new ideas and current Lego technology can creat new sets

I'm here for the excellent puns! lol

Puns? Me? Never…… 😂

It would be great if they would

A book nook will never win thru ideas because LEGO is already planning to make them
