Hello everyone,

This is not really a review that I always do but instead this is more like an informative introductory review to share this very special MOC which is made available in the Eurobricks Event 2014. Earlier ago, I have actually done up these pictures and posted in the Eurobricks Event Forum, until Peppermint_M prompted me to do more than just pictures. :sweet:

Event Kit - Eurobricks Yellow Xtra-Large Yellow Castle

Woo hoo, this is the very exclusive MOC set which is designed by our very own Eurobricks LEGO Ambassador, CopMike. With a whooping total of 1154 pieces count, made up of yellow bricks! Alright, not all of us will be able to have a full set with the right parts but that is part of the whole fun and tiring process of sorting the bricks and parts. :grin:

I am sure you will find the entire built to be similar with the mother of all castles, which is none other than the 375 Yellow Castle

Our own Eurobricks Special Themes Moderator, Rufus have also done a restoration project on the 375 Yellow Castle and all of the intriguing and interesting restoration process, can be found here.

This Eurobricks Yellow Xtra-Large Yellow Castle is twice the amount of bricks as compared with the 1978 LEGO version. This exclusive MOC is created for the celebration of the Eurobricks Tenth Anniversary for Eurobricks Eventees who are official Eurobricks Registered Members, received one such event kit on the 10 May 2014 in Billund, Denmark. I strongly believe there are only 50 to 60 copies ever assembled for this Eurobricks Event 2014. I am truly elated to be able to own this one-of-a-kind Castle MOC ever! :wub:

Eurobricks Yellow Xtra-Large Castle Minifigures

This event kit come with a total of six minifigures with a knight inclusive. There are a female archer, two axemen and two swordsmen defending the castle premises. It is an interesting mix, with a simple and classic neo-facade.

Printed AFOL 18+ instructions

Thanks for taking so e great pics of this set Fangy. My copy sits proudly on my build table at the moment. It was great how everyone sorted the parts to help make this a reality. Something I will really treasure.

Yippee! I am very happy and this set is also on my writing table for now, until I can figure a safe haven for it! The whole sorting process is just amazing.

Very nice job of cop mike, he is missing some stickers though ;)

:tongue:

Fangy, haven't you messed the stairs up a little though? :tongue:

Err! What did I mess this time? :look:

I actually just finish building it last night! I have missing parts too and I have to take from Belun to compensate from the first set. In addition, I also have to build the second set as well, so I can finalise the list of missing parts before I BL it.

funny i was just thinking of doing a modern take on the 375 castle myself, that set was a staple of my collection growing up. i think half the things are made were yellow because of that set.
