Knights ' Kingdom II Knights ' Kingdom is a subtheme of " Castle " . It was introduced in 2004 and ended after 2006 . The theme was replaced by Castle ( 2007 ) . Content wise , it has no connection to the first " Knights ' Kingdom " theme from 2000 , other than its medieval setting . Details . This second " Knights ' Kingdom " line from 2004 was a radical departure from previous " Castle " themes . Instead of using medieval knights and castles ( and bandits ) , it centered around individual characters ; four colourful knights ( in red , green , purple and light blue ) as main characters , pitted against the evil knight Vladek . The conflict took place in the fictional kingdom of Morcia . Each knight had a special ability and a unique crest . Initially , the good side only featured four knights and a king until 2006 , when Sir Kentis lead a group of four unnamed knights against a small army of foes in 8813 Battle at the Pass . Vladek ' s minions , the Shadow Knight s , were formerly knights of Morcia who were transformed by Vladek ' s use of the power of the Book of Morcia . They reverted to their previous form after the defeat of Vladek , which led to the use of Rogue Knight s as Vladek ' s new soldiers in 2006 . The standard LEGO System sets were accompanied by the release of canned action figure versions of the main characters in a style similar to " BIONICLE " . Most of the action figures ( and some regular sets ) came with special cards that could be used to play a battle game . Knights ' Kingdom II was more story oriented than previous Castle themes and had multiple books , online games , and comics , and even a video game . Knights ' Kingdom II introduced many new parts . The swords of knights were new , as were the visors for the four main knights and Vladek . The shields also had a new insignia , with a new shield for each knight and Vladek . Lastly , they all had new armor bearing their colors and a pattern . Plastic Figures released in 2004 were Nestlé promotions . The figures had studs on them , and had 4 pieces . They also had stickers to put on the shield and body . They were almost twice as big as LEGO Minifigure s . Featured castles . The kingdom of Morcia was in possession of several castles , most of which where released with the first wave in 2004 . The largest of these castles was the royal " Castle of Morcia " itself . Other fortifications included the Citadel of Orlan and Jayko ' s castle of Talonjay . The antagonist faction , led by Vladek , had three large buildings at its disposal , all of which were released in 2005 . Their main stronghold was Vladek ' s Dark Fortress , which was also the largest of all " Knights ' Kingdom II " sets . Other buildings included a fortified port included in 8802 Dark Fortress Landing and Scorpion Prison Cave . In 2006 another group of buildings was released . The Mistlands Tower was the largest and the only one that featured characters from the previous years . The other buildings in 2006 included the Gargoyle Bridge and a large wall featured in 8813 Battle at the Pass . It was originally planned for each knight to have castles based on the animal on their heraldry . The concepts briefly appeared on the official website , but were replaced with images from the card game , which weren ' t animal themed , although the animals could still be seen in the Book of Morcia . Characters . Seven characters were introduced in 2004 . They were featured as normal minifigures in the sets as well as canned action figures . The only Shadow Knights released as canned action figures were Karzon and Dracus , which were released in 2006 to counter King Jayko . In 2006 , there was a boxed King Jayko and Vladek , both of whom came with seige weapons . In 2005 , where the 4 knights were given magic - enhanced armour , the armour took a different shape with a molded shape on the torso instead of bricks as part of the armour . Six other knights were added in 2006 . External Links . The Comics ( minus words , just videos )
