Not much to say
I think, when it came out in 1997, it was the cheapest way to get a lego dragon (and it may still be). It's enough to make it great. I have a small army of dragons, partly thanks to this set.

Lord of the Bats!
Set #6007 Bat Lord: I bought this set back during my teen years (has it been that long?) and it was fairly cheap back in the day. I'm not sure how much increase in value it's had by now, but I don't collect Lego for value. I collect it because it excites my imagination even now that I'm just shy of thirty. (Boy am I dating myself.)
This set has nothing in it as far as construction goes - basically you're just putting together the Mini-Figure and then snapping a few wings on a dragon, but you don't buy this set for the build.
Bat Lord comes with three things that I immediately gravitated towards, first it has the black dragon a rare find indeed, second it comes with a ruby staff topped by a black bat and third it includes a chromed silver large sword. (The cape is a plus as well.)
I have loved this set since buying it and can't recommend it enough - the Bat Lord's face print is a somber looking serious expression, the ruby staff (Just a transparent red flag pole, but still cool.) and the large silver chromed sword make for excellent accessories. The fact that he probably uses the staff to control the black dragon with the flaming red wings to do his evil bidding is also a cool thing.
Really I could go on and on, but I think I've said all that's needed. A fun little set that was a bargain price back in the late nineties and an excellent addition to any Castle collections/displays - and if you have other Fright Night themed sets you can loan this Bat Lord a large shield from one of his soldiers so he can truly look menacing while riding his black dragon into battle.

Beautiful!
This is a the cheapest way to get a dragon! The dragon is very cool and we have great knight with superb helmet, silver sword and a stick with bat :) on its top too. One of the best small castle's set ever in my opinion...

Basil and Draco
I love the Fright Knights line, and this set has some of the best pieces from that theme. It comes with Basil the Bat Lord, and his dragon. Some people din't know, but it's name is Draco. Basil has his Bat staff and sword, as well as his cape and helm. A good starter kit.

A classic dragon rider set
This set have a dragon, and it's master, another fright knight. The fright knight have a cover and a staff with a bat on the top, too the large silver sword. The helmet too, is a symbol of these cool knights, like the red parts on body. One part of the staff can be used too in the lego star wars lightsabers' base, and is very useful. The dragon is black, and have orange and red parts, cool colors for a berserker dragon. This isn't very playable like the new, is more coolest than the silly of castle, but no than the great ones of the vikings. I rate this complete and classic set of a dragon and it's master 5/5.
