Seize the Dark Fortress and save the Kingdom! Prepare for the biggest LEGO Castle set ever with Vladek's Dark Fortress, set 8877-1. The valiant Knights of Morcia, including Sir Danju, Sir Santis, Sir Rascus, and Sir Jayko, must lower the drawbridge and conquer the formidable Dark Fortress. Their mission is crucial: prevent Lord Vladek from conquering all of Morcia! The Knights are equipped with a horse-mounted catapult and a horse-drawn catapult, while the fortress defends with two fireball catapults and a dumping cauldron of fire. Battle the metallic-armored Shadow Knights and defeat Lord Vladek by knocking down his Vlad-Mask. A skeleton joins the fray. Who will claim victory?
