Legend King's Indian

This is a unique plastic set.  It's great for blitz and always draws comments, mostly favorable.  I think it's pretty cool but some will object to the "broken-neck" knight.

Quality of the set is very good.  FWIW.  He is presently offering these on eBay as well as his website.  See here -->>  Legend King's Indian

Very nice. A take on the Zagreb knight.

looks like a nice set.

- well weighted

- matt finish

- real felt base
(but it does look at little under cut, I like the felt cut right on the edge)

- I dont see any seems

Its a nice plastic set from Legend. Dennis has been selling them for years & I never read a complaint about any of his plastic or wood sets.

Looks good they also have another weighing in at 64 ounces Alegria pieces. That also looks very nice. 

I kind of like that set. The N is a little submissive looking, maybe just a show of reverance to his majesty and his bride.

I llike the pawns and the B is a little different than all my other sets, but I like it.

Must ... Not ... Buy ... Another ... Set!

This is true.  They had a rivalry going there, as evinced by this 1998 Usenet post from Frank ---->> Legend vs. House of Staunton

I own this set and have done for over 10 years. Excellent quality - still set up beside me right now. 

I love this set, except for the King. To me, it almost ruins the whole set. I own the Hastings, Marshall, Reykjavik and Zurich ... and one other set. I like the king in the Hastings and the Marshall. The Reykjavik is ok. I dislike the king in this set. The rooks and the bishops feel the best in the King's Indian set. The knights are actually a little too big and heavy. The Zurich set feels good, too. As far as aesthetics, I think the Reykjavik looks the best overall, but it's too light.

Funny enough I too have this set but the set I purchase was in India both the sets look similar the only thing which is different is the Bishop I have

How to order Legend Products plastic chess sets (kings indian and alegria)? They do not ship internationally. I also ordered them both in ebay but they cancelled as they do not ship to PO box address 😤

You need a friend in the US to forward.

Also, it is unbelievably rude in an online forum to put the same reply on 6 (!) different old threads, so that the top of the entire forum is your exact same response.

I would likely have helped you out, as I’ve done for others in the past, but not after that display. Good luck.

Sweet set, great outdoors, any weather set---wind, rain, snow ...everything's fine
Acquired it randomly with a chess clock bundle FB Marketplace buy

Funny seeing this thread because I just got a Kings Indian set delivered yesterday. My set is Ivory and Black. I also own the Alegria set in Camel and Black. Both are great sets. I've had a great experience with both of my purchases with Legend Products and I would definitely recommend them to anyone who may be considering one.

I should have bought the Alegria set 5 years ago

No thanks, I already have 💪🏻

Does anyone have any experience (or a photo) with the King's Indian set in "Camel"? It appears to be the only color available for sale at the moment besides Ivory which I know is too bright for me.

The camel sounds like it might be a bit darker (more brown) than the "natural" color offered in the Alegria set. I have an older King's Indian set circa 2002 in a off-white buttercream color that I adore. That color appears to be out of production. I definitely like the "natural" color offered by Legend but worry I might find the camel too brown.

Thanks in advance for any info on this topic!
