Ever want to build your own chess set? Well now you can.

Lego just posted a new addition to the Kingdoms line and it’s a chess set.

From Lego’s own product description:
Build all 32 royal characters, then the black and white baseplate board! Put your army in place with their weapons and accessories, then battle with your opponent in a classic game of chess – LEGO® style! Includes a storage box!

* Features 32 minifigures with assorted weapons and accessories
* Includes storage box
* Play chess with royal minifigures and weapons!
* Makes a great gift for fans of LEGO® Kingdoms building sets!

This is a good looking game. I’d rather see it with Microfigures than Minifigures. The size would be smaller and presumably the cost would be less. It would also be a great way to stock up on Microfigures. The Star Wars Hoth game has about 32 Microfigures so a Micro Chess Set would be plausible.

This kingdom version does look good.
