It has been rumored and now seems to be confirmed that LEGO will be releasing new Castle sets in August of next year (2013). The
logo will be the same as the 2007 one, but packaging will be yellow. I obtained the following list from
Toys N Bricks:
- 70400 Forest Ambush
- 70401 Gold Getaway
- 70402 The Gatehouse Raid
- 70403 Dragon Mountain
- 70404 King’s Castle
A couple of things jump out at me with this list: 7946 was already called King's Castle so I hope this is not just a rehash of the previous version. Second, the name "Dragon Mountain" suggests that either it will have a dragon or the Dragon Knights will be making a comeback. In my mind it would seem appropriate to make a large castle for the Dragon Knights since the Lion Knights already have one and put them somewhat on equal footing. We shall see.
Since Castle is by far my favorite series, I am struggling to find an adjective for how excited I am. I will be loading up on these as soon as they are released!
