The loyal Lion knights of the King have found the evil Dragon knight’s secret prison and some of their missing comrades! In the fight to free the captured knight the Dragon knight has gotten on his horse and the other is flinging rocks over the walls with the catapult. Using the ballista, the Lion knight will try to batter down the gates and use the chaos to free his friend.
The LEGO 7187 Escape from Dragon’s Prison was released in July 2011 and is part of the LEGO Kingdoms collection. With 185 pieces in the set, and a recommended builder age range of 6-12, this is a good set for most builders. This set is relatively small with relatively few complex pieces, and being full of excitement and adventure, is a good set for older builders, who will be able to assemble it themselves without too many problems. Younger builders might need a little more help, but the set will be loads of fun for them regardless.
The two opposing sides in the LEGO Kingdoms world are the brave red and white Lion knights, loyal to the king, and the evil green and black Dragon knights. The main building included in this set is the prison, owned and controlled by the Dragon knights. The prison building displays the same colors and coat of arms on shields above the entrance. The prison has two large towers, one at each end of the large, functioning gate in the center. The towers are designed for defense, with plenty of room on top of each tower to place one of the minifigures included in the set. At the base of the prison towers there are two cells, one with a heavily armored door and one with a traditional cell door. These cells can be used to detain captured knights or hold other items. The attacking Lion knight has his own machine of war though. The Lion knights, who have come to attack the prison tower and rescue prisoners trapped inside, have come armed with a ballista, a wheeled missile launcher that can be used to fire at the tower and its defenders, battering down the doors and freeing all the prisoners.
There are four LEGO mini figures included in this set, one Dragon knight, one Elite Dragon Knight and two Lion knights. All of the LEGO minifigure knights are dressed in armor, but the Elite Dragon knight has a full helmet and plate armor. All of the knight have various weapons at their disposal, such as swords, crossbows and spears. The other item in the set is a black horse, wearing coverings with the colors of the Dragon knights and horned armor to do more damage when it charges.
While the set will be more fun when put with the other LEGO Kingdoms sets, but it can still be a lot of fun by itself. With four knights and several war machines to use, chaos will ensue and adventures will be had! Will the lone Lion be able to break into the prison, or will he be driven back by the evil Dragon knights?
