LEGO originally got its name from founder Ole Kirk Christiansen by combining the Danish words "Leg Got" that means "play well" and later realized that the word LEGO in Latin translates to "I put together." The LEGO set became a standard of creative play for children around the world; unlocking the creativity to build vehicles; buildings; cities and more. Most historians point to the invention of the wheel as a major turning point in world history. The invention of the LEGO wheel had the same monumental effect in the history of LEGO; making it possible to create cars; trucks and eventually the LEGO train building set that is one of the most successful LEGO sets of all time. LEGO innovation continues to this day with product lines like DUPLO that was created in 1969 for smaller hands and still thrives. Movie tie-ins; such as LEGO Star Wars; LEGO Indiana Jones Adventures and LEGO SpongeBob are some of the most popular sets. The Sci-Fi LEGO Bionicle sets have a huge following but the number one selling LEGO set of all time is The LEGO Mindstorms Robotics Invention System. Over 1 million of these sets were sold around the world. In 2009 LEGO introduces the next generation LEGO Mindstorms NXT 2.0! LEGO currently produces about 20 billion LEGO bricks a year and has sold over 400 billion LEGOs in their history -- enough for every person on the planet to have over 60 LEGOs each!

LEGO� Castle King's Castle Siege

LEGO� Castle King's Castle Siege Review

This is a great castle. It has lots of pieces, so you can take it apart and make lots of stuff. I have several lego sets, this is top quality.

I do not like that lego has went away from base plates on this castle, but it is cool. This isn't a base plate type castle, it comes apart at its corners and is connected by technique pins which is pretty cool for play value. You can make this into several different play models so I guess that is why no baseplate, raised baseplates are what I am speaking of.

The price is a little high, but all lego sets are. For the replay value and educational experience for kids I guess it isn't that bad. I would recommend this castle to a friend or fellow lego collector. I hope lego keeps up the quality of the fantasy era castle line all the sets have been great and this is no exception.

This is big for a lego castle, the largest of my castles actually. I have a hard time displaying it, I have every piece of the fantasy era castle collection, this and the medevial market are my favorites.
