In the mystical realm of Thyndros, the Wizard of Light and the Wizard of Dark were once brothers, bound by blood and magic. Their harmony shattered when the Wizard of Dark, seduced by the whispers of an ancient evil, sought to harness forbidden spells to dominate the world. The Wizard of Light, devoted to preserving peace, opposed his brother's dark ambitions. This clash of ideals sparked a war that tore the land apart. The black dragon, Valkhoros, was summoned by the Wizard of Dark from the depths of the Abyss. With eyes that glowed like molten lava and wings that blotted out the sun, Valkhoros became the harbinger of doom, spreading fear and destruction in the name of his dark master.

Hello,

the dragon is back, and this is its final chance to be selected as a finalist in the BDP Series! To highlight the dragon as the set's centerpiece, I cut the tower and white wizard, significantly reducing the element count.

My love for the dark creatures of fantasy movies inspired me to design a black dragon to Bricklink Designer Program Series. It is not actually based on an existing character, I studied some cool AI generated pictures and some cool dragon head builds, but I built something brand new. My intent was to create a poseable animal instead of a static statue and added a wizard to the set for more playability options.

I prefer the brick built solutions to keep the flexibility of the used parts in further builds, and therefore only two stickes are used for the dragon eyes and they are based on the printed part 98138pb386 which is not available in this series.

Dimensions of the dragon (as it is shown on the main picture):
Width: 73.3 studs / 23.1 in / 58.6 cm
Length: 67.7 studs / 21.3 in / 54.1 cm
Height: 48.5 studs / 15.3 in / 38.8 cm

Some rotation joints can only be stable in certain positions, for example the tail end must rest on the ground.

My name is Laszlo Torma and I love LEGO, it is one of my hobbies. I prefer minifigure scale and I design usually but not exclusively Speed Champions style car models. My LEGO nick name is TLG which is the abbrevation of my full name (in Hungarian order).

I hope you enjoy this set. Many thanks for your support and feedback!

All the best,
Laszlo Torma
