Rarity
Uncommon. While not as rare as vintage 1990s wizards, this specific dark green variant was only available in one set (70403 Dragon Mountain), making it harder to find than the more common blue or black wizards.
Head
Standard yellow minifigure head with a black beard. The face features black eyes with white pupils and bushy black eyebrows. It is topped with a black beard accessory (part 6132) and a dark green wizard hat with a printed dragon emblem and a gold buckle.
Torso
Dark Green Torso with simple printed Wizard / Medieval gown patterns. It features a dark brown belt with gold buckle detailing and subtle fabric folds. The arms are matching dark green with yellow hands.
Legs
Dark Green legs with printed patterns that continue the robe aesthetic from the torso. This includes a leather pouch and matching dark brown belt straps on the hip/thigh area.
Accessories
The figure is pictured with a brown '4L' bar/staff. Officially, in set 70403, he often utilizes a magic wand or a staff topped with a crystal. The black beard is a separate neckline accessory.
Color Scheme
Primary Dark Green with black, yellow, and brown accents. The dark green robe is specific to the Dragon Knights faction of the early 2010s reboot.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing typical of the 2010s. Includes a specific Dragon Knight emblem on the hat, which is a rare detail for wizard hats during this period. Double-sided torso printing is standard.
Variants
This character is a modern reimagining of 'Majisto'. Variants include the classic 1993 Blue version (cas249) and a black-robed version. This dark green variant is specific to the 2013 Castle wave.
Condition Notes
Common wear points include the tip of the pointed hat and the clutch power of the hands on the staff. The beard piece can sometimes leave a minor gap between the head and torso.
Estimated Value
Used: $8.00 - $12.00 USD. New/Mint: $15.00 - $20.00 USD. Value is driven primarily by the exclusive dark green hat.
Price (New)
Originally included in set 70403 Dragon Mountain, which retailed for $49.99 in 2013.

Character Background
Likely representing a wizard aligned with the Dragon Knights. In LEGO lore, wizards like Majisto are often neutral or enigmatic, but the inclusion of the dragon sigil on his hat identifies his loyalty to the Dragon crest faction.
Design Notes
A significant design choice was the use of Dark Green, moving away from the traditional Bright Blue associated with Magic users in LEGO Castle history. This helped align him with the aesthetic of the 2013 villains.
Similar Minifigures
Majisto (cas249), Wizard - Series 12 Collectible Minifigure (col187), and Evil Wizard - Series 13 (col202).
Collectibility
High for Castle completionists. Because the 2013 line was short-lived, figures like this wizard are becoming increasingly sought after as 'modern classics'.
History
Follows the lineage of the 1993 Dragon Knights theme but utilizes modern 3D printing and modern color palettes that weren't available in the 90s.
Interesting Facts
The dragon logo on his hat is a vectorized modernization of the original 1993 Dragon Knights shield print. It is one of the few instances where a wizard hat has a printed faction logo.
Display Suggestions
Looks best placed on a tower battlement or next to the 2013 red dragon. Use a transparent clear 'power burst' piece to simulate magic casting.
Modification Potential
The dark green hat is a favorite for 'MOC' builders looking to create forest-themed druids or Radagast-style wizards from Lord of the Rings.
Overall Assessment
A fantastic blend of retro nostalgia and modern printing. It is the best 'Dragon Wizard' LEGO has produced, though its value remains accessible for most collectors.
