Rarity
Uncommon to Rare. While not a limited polybag, it is exclusive to a very high-priced flagship set (10305).
Head
Yellow head with smiling female expression, brown eyes, and freckles. This specific face print is shared with other themes like City but is the designated driver for this knight.
Torso
Red torso with blue arms and yellow hands. Features Lion Knights crest (blue/yellow quartered shield with lion) pad-printed on the front. Covered by a Pearl Light Gray breastplate.
Legs
White legs with a printed chainmail skirt (red and silver trim). This is a modern high-detail print specifically designed for the anniversary line.
Accessories
Includes a Pearl Light Gray Pointed Visor Helmet with a Pearl Gold plume/ornament, a frayed yellow/red fabric cape, a pointed shield with Lion Knights crest, and a flat silver longsword.
Color Scheme
Primary colors of Red, Royal Blue, and White with Pearl Light Gray armor and Pearl Gold accents. This evokes the classic 1980s Lion Knights palette.
Printing Details
Extremely high quality. Features dual-sided torso printing, detailed hip/skirt printing on white plastic, and a sharp multi-colored faction crest on the shield.
Variants
Standard version from set 10305. There are 22 minifigures in that set; this specific configuration is one of the lead 'Hero' knights due to the cape and plume.
Condition Notes
The fabric cape is susceptible to fraying or creasing at the neck. The Pearl Light Gray visor can develop stress marks if flipped up and down aggressively.
Estimated Value
$12.00 - $18.00 (Used Complete); $20.00+ (New/Pulled from box). The value is buoyed by the high buy-in price of the parent set.
Price (New)
N/A (Included in Set 10305, which retails for $399.99 USD).
Compatible Sets
10305 Lion Knights' Castle (2022).
Character Background
A high-ranking knight of the Lion Faction, serving under the Queen. This figure represents the modern inclusive direction of LEGO Castle, featuring female warriors in lead roles.
Design Notes
The use of the frayed fabric cape is a nostalgic nod to well-loved 80s/90s capes. The helmet/visor combo is a classic mold used to bridge the gap between retro and modern aesthetics.
Similar Minifigures
Lion Knight (cas561), Queen Lionne (cas560), and various Series 23/24 collectible knights like the Tournament Knight.
Collectibility
High. Anything associated with the 90th Anniversary Castle is highly sought after by AFOLs (Adult Fans of LEGO).
History
Follows the lineage of the 1984 Lion Knights (Crusaders). It is a direct evolution of the figurines found in sets like 6080 King's Castle.
Interesting Facts
The Lion Knights' crest on the shield is a high-definition remaster of the original 1980s shield design, featuring more defined muscle lines on the lion.
Display Suggestions
Display on a gray stone-textured MOC or alongside the 10305 Castle. Use a clear stand to show off the back printing under the cape.
Modification Potential
Excellent for 'army building' Lion Knight ranks. Armor and helmets are interchangeable with other 90th-anniversary figures for variety.
Overall Assessment
A top-tier modern castle figure. It successfully blends nostalgia with modern printing tech and is a centerpiece for any medieval collection.
