Dear LEGO,
Could you make Knights Kingdom sets of the Moorlands and the area where Vladek found the rare metal ore to make his armour? Maybe even a small $50 version of Vladeks fortress which borders the Moorlands?

Yeah, a new set in the Moorlands could mean the place where Vladek trains his "horde" of Shadow Knights.

I am fairly confident that they plan to release at least one set from each area on the KK2 map. Granted, they don't always release every set they plan out, but I believe that KK2 is selling well enough that they won't cancel any planned releases. (Unlike Orient Expedition which I hear was cut short due to poor sales)
Personally, I anticipate and dread the day when the Rascus building is revealed. I have very little confidence in TLC's ability to release a decent "forestmen" set right now, but they do surprise me from time to time.
The moorlands stuff should be interesting to see, and I wonder how they will be designed. I have a feeling it might be some kind of cross between Dragon Masters and Fright Knights in the sense that it will probably have a strong fantasy creatures and magic element. Come to think of it, I believe Citadel of Orlan is in the Moorlands. I'll have to double-check that one.
Anyway, nice suggestion, but I think they're already planning things very similar to what you've suggested. (though I doubt that the rare ore / armor detail would be a part of any sets, but it would be nice for them to make another blacksmith)

Hmm this would be a interesting idea. I think I would like to buy Rascus's house. If it had a lot of plants....well I wouldn't complain.
Vladeck's hous might be ok. A good way to get two shadow knights without getting any jelly beans.

Oh no... Its cool! I am one of the biggest fans of Knights Kingdom out there. I think I'm one of the few who didn't think it was stupid just based on how it looked. Besides... have you tried the Jousting set? they actually charge each other. No hands required(besides punching the lever).Duke_Dave wrote:Man.... This stuff could accually be....(gulp) Cool.

Imagine Mordor. Same as the Moorlands in looks. The Citadel and Border Ambush are both in the Moorlands. Umm... Vladeks house? :| I think its called a castle.

...I agree with him. In the kk2 online comic the scene with the moorlands is a knock off of Mordor if ever there was one.SirBardatheBuilder wrote:Oh no... Its cool!

No, it's a little one story ranch with a white picket fence and a flower garden... his poppies are to die for. Get your KK2 facts straight.SirBardatheBuilder wrote:Umm... Vladeks house? :| I think its called a castle.
Just kidding. Don't hit me.
Is this a bad thing though? Honestly, why not use an effective setting over and over again? There's nothing wrong with that.TheOrk wrote:...I agree with him. In the kk2 online comic the scene with the moorlands is a knock off of Mordor if ever there was one.
I'm personally happy to see that people are embracing KK2. Sure, I don't like it as much as the older stuff, but I'd like to see more sets anyway. If nothing else, they're a good source or somewhat useful pieces and possibly new building techniques.

I was born after the "golden age of castle". I only lived to see Fright Knights, Knights Kingdom, and Knights Kingdom. So I never got to play with the "good sets". I just like the plot, the characters... and my websites.

You're right, you musn't judge something on it's appearance. KK2 is worth more than most people think. But I didn't like the Joust set, because of the mechanical horses. It just seemed a bit ridiculous to have Knights flying about on carts. Still, the other sets seemed great and well-built.SirBardatheBuilder wrote:Oh no... Its cool!
