- "Mwa ha ha ha ha!"
- ―Lord Vampyre
Lord Vampyre is a minifigure released in 2012 as a part of the Monster Fighters theme in which he is the main antagonist.
In LEGO 2K Drive, Lord Vampyre is known as Baron von Rose.
Description[]
Lord Vampyre has black legs with printed pocket lines and a black torso with printing of a pocket watch and a red tie and vest over a white, frilled shirt. His arms are also black. He has white hands and wears a black cloak like that used by all other vampires so far. Lord Vampyre sports a white head with a slightly open, fanged mouth, red eyes with grey rings around them and black eyebrows. His alternate face is much the same, but the mouth is closed with his fangs still visible and has different eyebrow positioning. Unlike the Studios Vampire, who sports more traditional spiky Vampire hair, Lord Vampyre has the newer swept-back hair mold. His weapon of choice is a long black sword.
In LEGO 2K Drive, Baron von Rose appears with golden epaulets instead of his usual black cape. Otherwise, he is identical to Lord Vampyre's minifigure.
Background[]
Lord Vampyre is the evil ruler of the Monster Realms, with his Bride. He originally planned to give his Moonstone to his beloved wife, but soon unearthed the powers of the spooky Moonstones and built a contraption to eclipse the sun forever, using the magical powers each Moonstone possesses. After he eclipses the sun, all the monsters will be able to roam freely in the Monster and Minifigure realms. So he used his own Moonstone's magical powers to control other monsters, and made them retrieve all 6 of the Moonstones.[1] Lord Vampyre owns a loyal zombie henchman, the Zombie Driver, and several man-sized bats called Manbats, who protect his castle.[2] He owns a hearse, of which he uses to roam around the Monster Realms. Lord Vampyre also owns the Haunted House, which is home to his Zombie Butler, Zombie Chef, and 2 ghosts. Lord Vampyre is constantly fighting the Monster Fighters, particularly Dr. Rodney Rathbone, for possession of the Moonstones and will stop at nothing to complete his plan.

Lord Vampyre is the fang-toothed ruler of the monster realm. A nocturnal creature, he sleeps during the day, hanging upside down or snuggled up in a coffin. His Bride is a deadly damsel and a master of hexes and poisons. The Lord also has several strange bat creatures, horrible winged henchmen who hang out in the castle’s nooks and crannies waiting to strike. He’s always up to no good. But his latest plan to eclipse the sun and inflict eternal darkness upon the world is perhaps his most vile yet… Lord Vampyre Facts: |

Notes[]
- On several preliminary boxes, his name was Dracula (as he is based on Count Dracula).
- He is the third Vampire made in LEGO minifigure history.
- Lord Vampire is very similar to the Vampire from 8684 Minifigures Series 2, leading some sources (such as The LEGO Movie Video Game) to treat both characters as the same, typically using the Vampire's appearance and Lord Vampyre's name. Despite this, it should be noted that the Vampire is typically considered friendly while Lord Vampyre is a villain.
- He was introduced the same year as a Heroica Character of a similar name.
