LEGO Quarantine Advent Calendar, Day 15: Bat Lord (6007), 1997. Basil the Bat Lord on his trusty dragon steed. Worth it for the dragon alone.

Day 14: Catapult
LEGO Quarantine Advent Calendar, Day 14: Unnamed (1843), 1996. Catapult carts were a recurring theme in Castle sets. This one isn’t half bad (some were really tiny).
Day 13: Medieval Knights
LEGO Quarantine Advent Calendar, Day 13: Medieval Knights (6105), 1993. 4 minifigs, weapons, and a horse. My favorite is the Wolfpack guy. The halberd and the plumes on the dragon helms feel overly elaborate.
Day 12: Magic Shop
LEGO Quarantine Advent Calendar, Day 12: Magic Shop (6020), 1993. Majisto totally isn’t Merlin. I’m not sure why he’s set up shop inside a tree. Includes another gray parrothawk.
Day 11: Black Monarch’s Ghost
LEGO Quarantine Advent Calendar, Day 11: Black Monarch’s Ghost (6034), 1990. What’s not to like about a mounted knight and a glow-in-the-dark ghost minifig? I guess the dark gray parrot is supposed to be a hawk.
Day 10: Smuggler’s Hayride
LEGO Quarantine Advent Calendar, Day 10: Smuggler’s Hayride (1974), 1989. Another Forestmen set. I like the peasant minifig.
Day 9: Forestmen’s Hideout
LEGO Quarantine Advent Calendar, Day 9: Forestmen’s Hideout (6054), 1988. On to Castle sets! Forestmen totally weren’t Robin Hood & his merry men. This tree fort opened up on hinges.
Day 8: Skeleton Crew
LEGO Quarantine Advent Calendar, Day 8: Skeleton Crew (6232), 1996. Another small pirate set. I dig the skeleton in the Conquistador helmet.
Day 7: Pirate Mini Figures (Sea Mates)
LEGO Quarantine Advent Calendar, Day 7: Pirate Mini Figures (Sea Mates) (6251), 1989. Continuing the Pirate theme, this minifig pack came with three pirates and two Imperial soldiers. Captain Red Beard with his hook hand and pegleg is one of my all-time favorite minifigs.
Day 6: Ship in a Bottle
LEGO Quarantine Advent Calendar, Day 6: Ship in a Bottle (21313), 2018. The new Pirates set LEGO announced yesterday reminded me of this fun set.
