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.
2002 LEGO Sets
In 2002, LEGO continued to expand its product range, though not all themes found long-term success. Star Wars remained a dominant force, celebrating the franchise’s 25th anniversary, with LEGO releasing several collectible sets such as the Imperial Star Destroyer (10030-1) and Attack of the Clones subtheme sets, coinciding with the release of Episode II: Attack of the Clones. The Western theme also contributed to the year’s investment appeal, with sets like Fort LEGOredo (6762-1) maintaining long-term collectibility.
