The Building Category
Reimagine a classic castle set, built with modern techniques and aesthetics. The interpretation of this will be left to each builder, but judges will be looking for skill, creativity, and of course resemblance to the original set (including play features!)
Size limit is roughly capped at 2x the footprint of the original set.

Deadline
Same as CCC XX, January 3rd, 2023

STAY TUNED FOR CCC CATEGORY ANNOUNCEMENTS AND PRIZES TOMORROW, NOVEMBER 1st!

Welcome, Gid617! :wave:

I hope you're able to get an entry in for this contest! I know a lot of prestigious former champs are planning on entering - some are even considering "coming out of retirement" to build for it, so it should be epic! :shock:

Nope...only in very very limited circumstances has anyone's name been changed. Or the retired admins had fun messing around. Now in chat...yeah we did that a lot. Can't do that anymore.

Thank you so much to everyone who runs the best LEGO castle contest of all time! Congratulations to all the other winners and participants. Everyone did such an incredible job! I'm extremely honored to win this title. And holy cow, all you Master Builders really brought your A-Game! Those were some absolutely gorgeous MOCs.

Thank you again!
