The Black Falcons were an early faction of LEGO's Castle theme and were introduced together with the Crusaders in 1984 when LEGO relaunched their Castle theme after the discontinuation of the first knights faction. The Black Falcons name is not actually official as the name comes from the set 6074 Black Falcon's Fortress. The Black Falcons subtheme and faction was discontinued in 1992.
1987 LEGO Sets
1987 reshaped core worlds: Futuron and Blacktron established a new Space rivalry, and the Forestmen arrived in Castle with woodland hideouts and outlaw flair. Early computer-control experiments appeared in the Technic ecosystem, foreshadowing later programmable systems. Across the portfolio, factions and clearer narratives became a defining design focus.
