Dual-sided face printing: one side with a classic vampire fanged smile and red eyes, the other with a more menacing expression. Includes a large black bat-wing style helmet piece.
Torso
Dark red and black ornate armor printing with metallic silver highlights and a bat crest. Includes black arms and silver hands.
Legs
Printed hip and leg pieces featuring continuation of the ornate plate armor with a tattered cloth design at the bottom.
Accessories
Large silver claymore/sword, a red and black shield with a bat emblem, and a tattered fabric cape (dual-color red and black).
Color Scheme
Dark Red, Black, and Metallic Silver with minor white accents on the fangs.
Printing Details
High-fidelity pad printing on front/back torso and front of legs. The shield is particularly well-detailed with a metallic finish bat logo.
Variants
No physical model variants; however, the box code 6623272 with Data Matrix 107S6 ensures this specific character is inside without opening the box.
Condition Notes
Prone to cape fraying if handled excessively. The cardboard box packaging is susceptible to crushing or tampering as it cannot be 'felt' like previous foil bags.

Character Background
A spiritual successor to the classic LEGO Fright Knights theme from the late 1990s, specifically referencing Lord Basil the Bat Lord.
Design Notes
Uses modern printing techniques to achieve highly detailed armor that pays homage to 1997-era aesthetics while providing a contemporary feel.
Similar Minifigures
Basil the Bat Lord (bat001), Series 19 Fright Knight (col355), and various Vampire minifigures from the Monster Fighters theme.
Collectibility
High demand among 'Castle' theme fans and collectors of retro LEGO sub-themes. Stable investment potential due to the popularity of faction-building.
History
Part of the second wave of CMFs to use the 'Small Box' packaging which replaced blind bags in late 2023/early 2024.
Interesting Facts
The Data Matrix code '107S6' on the bottom of the box (as seen in the image) is a scannable identifier used by collectors to verify the contents without opening the seal.
Display Suggestions
Ideal for a gothic castle diorama or alongside other Fright Knights. Use a transparent stand to keep the tattered cape from touching dust.
Modification Potential
The helmet and shield are highly sought after for customizing other medieval knights or vampiric MOCs.
Overall Assessment
A standout figure of Series 25. Rating: 9/10 for its nostalgic value, excellent printing, and included accessories.
