1/8/2024 0 Comments Lego blacksmith setThe roof tiles appear to mantain the change in angle that we see in that model too. The sand green gives a great mossy look, while the bright blue is a great nod to the roof of the 3739 Blacksmith Shop, from 2002. The variety of colour might provoke some who prefer the gloomy look. The final result here, using NEXO shield tiles was the mainstay of the roof tiles, is very effective. Don’t get me wrong: it looks great as a moody, poorly maintained medieval building, but I can see difficulties in transposing this to instructions in a qualitity controlled sets. The roof has possibly been the most devisive aspect of the final design: replacing a roof that was essentially dark blue times, with an almost flagrant disregard for the order in which they might be places. That said, the overall layout, with the lower level/living level, arrangement of forge and stone stairs are essentially the same. The chimney is preserved, as is the feeling of the stone walls, although there appears to be slightly more walls in white /tan/with exposed beams in the final release, compared to the veritably stone clad submission I feel this change results in a brighter final result, as does the roof. The original submission is slightly taller, although the final footprint appears to be quite similar to the original. Now that we have better images to compare the original concept with the final product, let us see how they compare… When The first image of this set was accidentally revealed a few weeks ago, fans of the original design were concerned that there was a dramatic departure from the original design, both in terms of the roof design and scale. Certainly a sign of how the production techniques have improved over the years. I do not think I have seen this design of horse in tan, previously.Ĭompared to the original Black Falcons, the updated versions feature much shinier armour, and also appear to have silver printed torsos and shields, compared to the old white printing. We have four minifigures in this set: The Blacksmith, his wife and two Black Falcons Knights. Certainly beyond what we might have seen in medieval sets previously. As you can see in these shots from the box, the interior is remarkably detailed. The model is set over three levels: a ground floor workshop, kitchen/ dining floor and a bedroom/writing desk in the attic. With 2164 pieces, and costing 149.99 USD/ 199.99 CAD 146.99 EUR / 134.99 GBP /249.99 AUD, this set will be released through LEGO Branded Retail on February 1st. This year, the 21325 Medieval Blacksmith sees the same treatment meted out on the Classic Castle/Medieval Market village style sets. Last year, 21322 Pirates of Barracuda Bay saw classic Pirates given the LEGO Ideas/ AFOL Audience Treatment. Finally, we can reveal the official details about this set. A little over eighteen months ago, Clemens Fiedler’s LEGO® Ideas Submission ‘Medieval BlackSmith’ reached 10000 supporters on the crowd-sourcing platform.
