I'm pretty sure it's a dismembered knight. You have the yellow cylinder for the head, the gray one for the helmet, the yellow 2x1 for a torso, and the blue and red for his clothes.

Knight's Procession is only the US name. In the UK it's called Medieval Knights. In Dutch the name is 6 ridders met buit, which translates as 6 knights with loot. In French, Défilé des chevaliers or Parade of knights. In Luxembourgish, Wapenknechten or Armsmen. And in German it's, Ritter or Knight.

correction: the word Ritter in the german language can both mean singular and plural. In this case it definitely was plural, so it would translate to "Knights".

Exactly! Those little knights could be anything, i think me and my brother mainly used them as opponents to the robinhood set as well, but they quickly became enlisted in the army of a larger fraction, after all that's how things actually did work in the medieval Europe as well, especially for a lego knight... ;-) (And, yes of course one can hawe bot since they do exist, the rest is up to You ;) ) I am a huge fan of Hal Fosters books and i still have the magazines i could find on my bookshelf i use to read from time to time, Northern Sweden reminds a lot of the Canadian wilderness, unfortunately including the absence of actual medieval stone fortification, that he too had to add in to the landscape and he was in my opinion a true master of fusing the magic of the medieval old world into the untamed wilderness of Vinland.

I'm from Belgium and that set looks like the religious processions we still do in some parts of the counrty. Most cities have relics that we carry around the town, by foot, once a year. The tradition goes back to medieval time and some people are even dressed like medieval folks. Whan I saw your Lego set, I immediately thought of that so you might be right.

Its the leftover body parts of the slain king of Legoland. The procession is in essence an honorary rite to return the body of the fallen king, mutilated as it may be, to the kingdom of its origin. After this event, a war of succession broke out between different factions. This plunged the once prosperous kingdom into centuries of war, between the known and lesser known factions to follow in succeeding generations of Lego Castle. Factions like the Black Falcons, the Wolf Pack and Lion Knights are all examples of these. And the previously small forestmen band of thieves expanded to become a dominant force of pseudo-democratic rebellion against any and all pretenders to the throne. This eventually led to the worship and unleashing of dark, forgotten forces of magic and legend, leading to the rise of Majisto, witchcraft, necromancy, the re-emergence of dragons, the creation of Basil the Bat Lord and the Curse of Orcus to turn men into Orcs. Or thats my headcanon, anyway. Gotta find some way to explain all these different castle sets in my possession.

Cool theory! I like the idea.

Perhaps a fallen general? A bit dark, but not too unlikely. (Take it with a grain of salt, of-course. lol)

You're reading way too much into this. In Danish the set is called ridderoptog. Ridder meaning knight and optog meaning parade or closer in regards to knights; procession. The Danish name came first. I'm guessing Lego needed a small set for the small birthday presents. People wouldn't buy just four knights then there's nothing to built, so Lego gave you four knights and a few bricks and various ways to use them.

More pop-culture-history than actual history. A procession is simply a line of people, it doesn't have to be in a religious context. Equally in medieval times people could be knighted for battlefield accomplishment, even if they didn't have the wealth to be a proper knight. So this "knights procession" could equally be a bunch of common soldiers on their way to the war camps toilet area.

I had this set. The other ones that you are showing in your video are much younger. The Knight's Procession is from a time where there were no lion knights. There was only one Lego castle and it was made of hundreds of yellow bricks, and all the horses were made of bricks too. The main faction's crest was a crown on a pink background. The mini figures were blue. And if I remember correctly there was only one other set from that time, which was some sort of tournement grounds.The mounted knights had the same helmets as the astronauts, but with a movable visor.

So maybe someone at Lego thought that the kids in the US needed some explaination what these guys are doing? A procession after the sack of Jerusalem? Loved the low-key promo of Kingdom Of Heaven. The directors cut of that one is one of the greatest movies nobody saw. Highly recommended.

It seems that many of the figures in these early sets were erroneously dubbed "Knights." But when taken in context with other contemporary sets, these figures are clearly meant to represent sergeants, or squires in service to a Knight and possibly his lady. As there are figures in other sets with visored helms. So possibly this is the Knight's retinue and baggage train?

I had this set as a kid. They didn't have the horse model/figure until later in the 80's. Maybe they wanted a cheap set with a few minfigs to be the low price point of the Knights line? I think you're overthinking it. A simple supply handcart makes the most sense as a child's toy. Plus, what would sell better to kids? "Guarded handcart"? Or "Knight's Procession?" Sure, it's fun to speculate, but sometimes the simplest answer is the right one.

many have pointed out in the comments here that this could be a knight's body being transported, likely for burial, and that they likely didn't use a minifig because of PG considerations. but it could also just be something relic-related-relics are oftentimes brought to battles, both for morale and divine assistance reasons. there's the Procession around Jerusalem as mentioned in the video, but there's also an anecdote about Henry V bringing a bunch of monks with him to Agincourt so they can pray while everyone else is literally in the heat of battle. the most extreme case is the Italian carroccio, which is a massive ox-drawn altar hauled out when your city is battling someone else. almost like Capture the Flag, getting your carroccio taken is a massive and shameful loss.

Though I might have gotten a biased hint in the title, "disturbing", my first thoughts were that this was a funeral procession for a fallen knight. Reason being that the cart was ceremoniously carried by knights and escorted, and the actual parts in it were of the same colors as the knight characters. Why would they us parts instead of an actual body ? I can only guess, because of how gruesomely ravaged and dismembered it must be. Truly, disturbing, if that os the implication.

Interesting video. However, I think you are over thinking it a bit! This Knight's Procession was a part of the first Castle sets, something distinctly separate from the later ones (1983 onwards). Also, if you look at the Knight's Joust set (released the same year as the Procession set), you can see that the actual knights, on horse back, have distinctly differently helmets (as they were to do in the second release of Castle sets from 1983 onwards). I wouldn't say that the Lego set designers of 1979/81 were that clued up on medieval history, although I guess we will never know!
