The Lego Dragon Knights Sets 1993-1995

That was exactly the way I saw the DM and Royal Knights as well!

High five!

Aanchir:

Thanks for clearing up the question of the cardboard castle, I agree that the workshop is a wonderful set but I can't fully let it hit my own personal top ten because of the lack of a door (once I mod it I can though). as for other set designs with the dragon masters I apericate that LEGO tried to do soemthing different and I love they way these guys stand out from alot of the other factions, something different is always interesting and often good.

Thanks for the info on names that helps alot, however with these guys we get our first identifiable minifig, some of the sets have different names on them (like Black Monarchs Castle for example) however we don't actually get a fig to identify with the name (whos the Black Monarch?), if you ask online who the robin hood fig is and you would get a whole bunch of different answers, ask about Majisto and you will mostly get one, that was the point I was trying to make, in germany for example he was called Cerlin link, so I was more saying he is the firsted named fig not that his name is Majisto (I should probably make that clearer). If you post your list I would love to see it, just one final question what did you actually think of my article? is there anyway I could improve

Good point about the difference between named characters and named minifigures. You're right, Majisto may be the very first fig to be directly identified with a name, even if other "characters" had been mentioned previously in set names! I can't find any other older set names where a name can be tied to a particular fig from the set.

As for your review, it was remarkably in-depth. It was also a wonderful trip down memory lane for me, since I so strongly remember many of the Dragon Knights/Dragon Masters sets.

I will post my castle set names chart once I have it a bit more complete... as it is, I just pulled it up and realized it's still missing a lot of U.S. set names! There's no excuse for this as I have plenty of U.S. catalogs in my basement, and so I'll want to pull those out at some point and add to my list. When I do add it, you will be able to find it here, in the folder that currently houses a chart of Space set names from different countries.
