Castle in the Forest Reviews
Brick Fanatics
“Medieval fans will likely want to make a beeline for Daniel Van Zonneveld’s Castle of the Forest, which arguably reflects the mood of the LEGO Ideas community more than any other project in this round, given the number of Castle-themed concepts currently reaching 10,000... More votes. (The third 2020 review alone includes a whopping five different projects anchored around the dormant LEGO theme.)”
“Overall, the exterior and the walls of the castle is designed with great attention to detail. I especially like the fact that the castle is closed all around. To get to the inside of the castle, you can open the back wall of the castle. The castle consists of 3 floors, a... More basement, the first floor with the main entrance and the second floor with a table and a small balcony.”

I'm very proud to present to you this beautiful forestmen castle. This model has almost 2000 parts and is build in three sections. Each part is inspired by one of the forestmen sets from the 90s.
The model has a lot of play features : it has a gate door that opens, a secret escape passage through a fake fire place, there is a trapdoor. Many parts open up to allow you to get inside.
There many details inside : a bed, tables, a cooking place, many candles and lots of extra weapons to defend your castle !
The model has 6 minifigures : 3 forestmen, 1 peasant and 2 black falcon knights.
There are also some animals included : an owl, a horse, a bird and a frog.
