You can't have a soundtrack like that and then leave us hanging...I need an epic ending... Great video, looking forward to next installment.

Thank you Chris! Next video is obviously my Black Falcon's Castle reveal & instructions publish. But the video after that will be the Lego Expo video, finally huh?! I'll explain why the Expo video was delayed in the lead-in. BTW I like the new 1:8 scale Ferrari. I won't buy it immediately but it will be bought!
What a great vid! Love the variance between figs of the same type. Video format really suited the minifig construction and medieval theme. It felt like an epic lead in and teaser for part 2 - I can't wait!

Thank you Damien! Yes I'm working hard on finishing everything needed for part 2 which is the main event! My Fortress MOC as you know has been 2 years in the making!
Nice team. Looking forward to see what you build :)

Thanks it's a good squad and they fill out the Fortress nicely! You'll see this in the next video!
Putting all of these together in the studio must have been so satisfying. I think I'll build a small garrison myself and alongside an "outpost" or something of this kind. If something beautiful comes out of this, I'd love to share the instructions with you, so you can add it to your display as well if you like 😊🤷🏻♂️

Creating this garrison was quite a while back! But yes it was satisfying, I do recall though that lining up all the Minifigures 'exactly' so they were evenly spaced and all directly facing to camera was painstakingly difficult! ...sure thing I'd love to see what you create with your garrison & tower 🙂
They looks amazing!
Best looking Black Falcon army I've seen! Want to build my own now!

Thanks Alex - I was looking back at this video the other day and think in the New Year I'll take on making and filming some new squads or small armies. Coming up with different minifig part, head, armour and weapon combos is a lot of fun. All the best to you for your army build!
That's a garrison worthy of the castle!
Can't wait for part 2

Great video. Slightly different than usual. I love it. What a work to choose all these pieces. I have started to complete all Harry potter quidditch teams for instance but never ended.

Thank you Wizard of Bricks, the next video will also be similar where I showcase my Castle MOC, highlight the features of the Castle and go over where to find the instructions. It's good to try some different styles of videos from time to time. I can imagine finding and buying all the parts & accessories for all of the HP Quidditch teams would be hard!

These are so great and may have to expand on my mediocre 12 strong garrison now 😂. I don’t know if you’ve seen the new black Falcon printed torso pieces available from the Lego stores in the Build a Minifigure section?

Hi Simon - yes I've seen those new torso's but I've not ordered any yet. I have one final thing to work on that is Medieval related and then I think I'll take a break from the theme for a while and work on mods! They seem to be the most well received on the channel and is where I feel I can help and add value!

Just had to watch this video again and will many times over for sure. I’ve recently been spending far too much on Black Falcon minifigures and accessories like helmets, body wear and weapons etc. You have some great combos and ideas I’m going to emulate. I have everything strewn across the dining room table at the moment and still need more parts lol.

Sounds good Simon! I'm pleased you are making your own custom Black Falcon's army! ...I've been doing some thinking on what I'd like to focus on for the channel next year and I think creating more of these custom mini-armies it squads is going to be on the cards. It's fun to do and results in something that is a delight to view/watch. 🙂

This is a mega army 👌 what part did you use to attach the bird to Lord Falcon’s hand? I managed to find the bird, but I can’t see how you fitted it. Thanks in advance! PS your castle is also top notch!
