Dragon Masters Dragon Masters was a Castle subtheme introduced in 1993 and phased out in 1995 . Details . In contrast to previous factions of Castle , which were more or less accurate renditions of medieval life , Dragon Masters ventured into the realm of fantasy by introducing classical fantasy elements such as dragon s and wizard s . The Dragon Master army was led by the wizard Majisto , noteworthy for his pointed hat , his glow - in - the - dark magic wand , and his long white beard , all new elements that year , and for being the first Castle minifigure to have a proper name - in fact , Majisto was one of the first named minifigures . Majisto commanded a small regiment of knights and guards , whose shields bore a recolored ( green ) variant of the Black Knights ' shields , as well as dragons . The dragons are bright green and black flying reptiles with points of articulation at the jaw , both shoulders , both wings , and the tail , with studs on their back to allow for the carrying of riders . The Dragon Masters competed with the Wolfpack and Black Knights , both of whom feared the great power of Majisto . The theme ' s primary colours are black , light grey , and bright red , with dark grey , brown and bright green detail pieces . The flag is yellow with a red border and blue and red dragon . The shields have a green and red dragon instead , and the torsos have a golden dragon head . All of the Dragon Masters sets included in the catalog , excepting the Crossbow Cart , were released in 1993 . The following year saw the release of two further sets , and in 1995 only one other small set was released . Background . Castles and Equipment . Dragon Masters was one of the smaller Castle factions , although they possessed numerous vehicles . 6048 Majisto ' s Magical Workshop was the only Castle house released during the 1990s . Three Dragon Masters sets contain the new dragon figures : 6056 Dragon Wagon , 6076 Dark Dragon ' s Den and 6082 Fire Breathing Fortress . New and Exclusive Pieces . Dragon Masters brought a whole array of new minifigures . The wizard Majisto , with his pointed hat and the new beard piece , was completely new and all of the knights and soldiers had new heads and torso pieces , as was standard for Castle themes . In total , there were three newly introduced torso pieces with three different dragon heads printed on them , as well as three new heads with different beard patterns , which never appeared outside of Castle and were only in use during the 1990s . New additions to the equipment included the large grey halberd and the dragon helmets with side plumes , both pieces which would reappear in later themes . The horses were also given head armor . This was also one of the first themes to introduce cloth pieces as flags and capes . In this case both were yellow and printed with a green dragon and not reused in other themes . Dragon Masters also marked the first appearance of the later ubiquitous flame piece 6126 , which has been reused a countless number of times ever since . Sets . A knight in 6078 Royal Drawbridge from 1995 resembled a Dragon Masters knight but carried an oval Black Knights shield . The oval Dragon Masters shield with the green dragon reappeared on a cart in 6079 Dark Forest Fortress from 1996 .
