LEGO Castle fans rejoice; a new LEGO Kingdoms chess-set just became available on LEGO’s website: #852273 LEGO Kingdoms Chess-Set. I have to say that LEGO did an excellent job keeping this one a secret from LEGO Castle fans! 🙂
Here are the details on this new LEGO Castle set: Play chess with minifigures in regal LEGO Kingdoms’ style! Build a 32-minifigure chess set with kings, queens and knights from the LEGO Kingdoms building sets – with weapons and accessories!
Build all 32 royal characters, then the black & white baseplate board! Put your army in place with their weapons and accessories, then battle with your opponent in a classic game of chess – LEGO style! Includes a storage box!
- Features 32 minifigures with assorted weapons and accessories
- Includes storage box
- Play chess with royal minifigures and weapons!
- Makes a great gift for fans of LEGO Kingdoms building sets!
- 328 pieces Price $49.99

The molded castle-base looks very Mega Bloks-ish, but on the positive side it keeps the price of the LEGO Chess-Set down. In fact, besides appealing to LEGO chess fans, this set is a dream for LEGO Castle army-builders; you get 28 minifigures for $49.99! That’s $1.78 per minifigure – an excellent price! Plus you also get a bunch of weapons, a 32 x 32 green baseplate, 32 white 4 x 4 plates, 32 black 4 x 4 plates, and many other parts. This is a dream deal in anyone’s book!
To check out further details and to buy go to LEGO’s website: LEGO KINGDOMS CHESS-SET AVAILABLE NOW, or click the box-image below. Please note there is a limit of 5 sets per household. I guess LEGO wants to limit the size of your army. 🙄
