Bilbo Baggins Posted June 29, 2012 I'm not really sure about this set numbers, they look way too strange for them being regular sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
just2good Posted June 30, 2012 Google translates that as Bag End. Interesting choice for what I would assume to be the flagship set of the theme (if that price is correct) Hopefully it does indicate a Bag End set! I will totally buy that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
General Magma Posted June 30, 2012 Hopefully it does indicate a Bag End set! I will totally buy that! I'd say we will get a Bag End set, but I wouldn't say that the set numbers or the prices are accurate in any way. Don't think a Bag End set would be that big - and they surely wouldn't make the entire location, didn't have much of a role other than serving as a starting point of Bilbo's adventure in the book... of course, this might just be changed by the movie, but I doubt it. I would still count on a Bag End set, regardless. I also wonder in what way they would attempt to mold the Wargs... the new city bear seems to have pose-able legs (though not all of them), hopefully LEGO Wargs will be able to move all four legs around. It would be nice to see some Moria orcs with helmets in The Hobbit sets as well, if there's no other chance to get them from future LOTR sets. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Diggydoes Posted June 30, 2012 The German description says that they´ve just collected rumours and it´s totally not confirmed in any way! So don´t get to excited! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SirBlake Posted July 1, 2012 I"m sure this is a question that nobody has an answer to, but when are those polybags going to hit, I wonder? Does anyone who's been paying close attention to TLG's release habits over the past few years have a guess for when they might introduce these? I'm enjoying my army of 10 Uruk-Hai, but it woud be fun to add to the ranks with those... http://www.brickset.com/detail/?Set=30211-1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Does anyone who's been paying close attention to TLG's release habits over the past few years have a guess for when they come out? In the US, they'll probably be out in Target during Fall time, or at Walmart during the Holiday season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The_Chosen_1 Posted July 1, 2012 I'm excited for the polybags as well; you can bet that the Uruk-hai set in particular will be gone just as soon as it hits. I'm planning on picking up at least 10 of them if possible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SirBlake Posted July 1, 2012 In the US, they'll probably be out in Target during Fall time, or at Walmart during the Holiday season. Cool, that's something to look forward to. I'm excited for the polybags as well; you can bet that the Uruk-hai set in particular will be gone just as soon as it hits. I'm planning on picking up at least 10 of them if possible. Same here. I predict lots and lots of Frodos warming the pegs. Hopefully LEGO will have the foresight to not pack them in a 1:1 ratio. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fives Posted July 1, 2012 That Uruk poly bag will make the price of the Uruk fig go way down on Bricklink. It will make it easier for people to collect armored Uuks soldiers without having to buy the actual poly bags. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ld27 Posted July 1, 2012 Just been down to my local Argos (UK) and picked up the one and only set they had (Shelob) and all i can say is its awesome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S_alvyn10 Posted July 1, 2012 (edited) Just been down to my local Argos (UK) and picked up the one and only set they had (Shelob) and all i can say is its awesome! Just been down to my one and got Gandalf arrives and urukhai army. These sets are amazing and also the quality of the bricks are better than the ones from the helms deep set which i ordered from barnes&noble USA. Does anyone know why there is a difference in the bricks quality? Edited July 1, 2012 by S_alvyn10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
prozac Posted July 1, 2012 That Uruk poly bag will make the price of the Uruk fig go way down on Bricklink. It will make it easier for people to collect armored Uuks soldiers without having to buy the actual poly bags. They're already under $4 which isn't too bad imo.

KristofBD Posted July 1, 2012 The Minifigures designer video was really nice. Especially the sight of seeing all those Uruk Hai and orcs made me really want to start collecting them. Still have to wait a bit though, but it's almost time... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fives Posted July 1, 2012 While on the LEGO site, I noticed a new game they put on the site. On the game, there is a little gallery of some cool scenes, but there was one in particular that took me by surprise. http://thelordoftherings.us.lego.com/en-us/Games/TheSiegeofHelmsDeep.aspx This sure looks like Elrond from the Battle of Dagorlad!

SirBlake Posted July 2, 2012 That's a cool pic. That flash game is pretty broken for me though. I could only get the Aragorn one to work, the others would act like they were loading and then just freeze. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Philip Robin Posted July 2, 2012 Whoa looks sick! Here's hoping for an actual minifig! I don't see why they would go to the trouble of printing all the designs if they weren't going to use it... It looks awesome!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I could only get the Aragorn one to work, the others would act like they were loading and then just freeze. Same for me! And the Aragorn one was pretty boring, I quit after 30 seconds...

Combee Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) If they do make this minifig then it's a great opportunity for a Sauron minifig in the same set! Fingers crossed Edited July 2, 2012 by Combee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
