fsintercambio Posted April 2, 2015 Heey guys, I resubmit my Mumakil project to lego ideas: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/99118 I think this time it is more accurate to the movie...What you think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Faefrost Posted April 2, 2015 It looks good. Probably as close as we could get in Lego. It has that nice land ship feel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bobbtom Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) A set like that would have appealed to many fans young or old. I think lego realized this after their LOTR line, which is why we have a giant elephant for the Chima line. It's a shame really, a toy like that would have made many kids excited and would have certainly kept the line going and allow lego to make sets that would have made AFOLs happy. (i.e. Arwen, Witchking, etc.) Edited April 2, 2015 by Bobbtom Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Cube Posted April 2, 2015 This is superb! I would buy it! Just one thing - if you are reffering to just one specimen, it should be called Mumak, because Mumakil is plural. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balbo Posted April 2, 2015 Wow, your Mumakil looks amazing . You really did a great job recreating the Oliphaunt. Supported! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fsintercambio Posted April 2, 2015 (edited) Thanks guys... I didnt knew that "mumakil" is a plural form =( good to know, but I cant change the main image hahahaha what a bad mistake Edited April 2, 2015 by fsintercambio Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fsintercambio Posted April 2, 2015 Would you mind to help me get on popular this week? it is a hard work and I already asked to all my friends (I dont have many) to support it hahahaha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blakstone Posted April 2, 2015 Supported and shared with my local LUG. Two days ago I opened my last Uruk Hai Army set. I needed some parts but built it first. It is such a great set. I really miss having the Lord of the Rings sets. Each part in there was something I wanted. The Hobbit ones had characters I didn't care about. Hopefully Ideas will show LEGO the desire is still there for LotR even on a limited capacity. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Khaled Yousef Posted April 2, 2015 Wow, this is an excellent Oliphant, the proportions are right and the details are amazing. Fantastic job, I hope it gains lots of support. Perhaps if you added some more interesting minifigs it will make it even more attractive as a set, like Eowyn in battle armor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoldenNinja3000 Posted April 2, 2015 Supported! That looks amazing! Great job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheLegoDr Posted April 4, 2015 Definitely an impressive build. I may have to just look at this and reverse engineer it to have my own since LEGO won't release anything else. It's a shame for sure since LOTR was the best theme (IMO). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cullmancreations Posted April 5, 2015 So is it confirmed that it wont be possible for Lego to release a LOTR set (Minas Tirith) via the Ideas website then? I have been inactive for a little while I just want to get back up to speed with all the info Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have been inactive for a little while I just want to get back up to speed with all the info No. The review period is still going. You might want to heck the IDEAS site once a month on that. If it fails the review, we won't discuss this a lot. If it passes, this thread will explode. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have been inactive for a little while I just want to get back up to speed with all the info Check back around mid-May (that's when they announce the winner of the review) and you will find out. It's still possible, but it's very unlikely, so don't be surprised if it loses to something "tamer" like the Piano or Marble Maze. If Minas Tirith doesn't pass review, I think that will also mean the end of this thread, so keep your fingers crossed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

atreyu2112 Posted April 6, 2015 Was trying to figure that out myself. It's now shared across most of the LotR/Hobbit/Tolkien FB pages... Hmm? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Balbo Posted April 6, 2015 What is this? Thanks for sharing this It's interesting that this picture is from the 'Lord of the Rings Trilogy' fanpage - so not from TLG itself. Maybe it's just a coincidence that they used the Lego Gandalf, but maybe there's something else wating under the surface. In three days we will know more (hopefully) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blakstone Posted April 7, 2015 What is this? https://www.facebook...?type=1 Seeing how today's post has Wildstyle in it, this isn't a new Lord of the Rings item. I think it is the Toys-to-Life project. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MAB Posted April 9, 2015 Another Gandalf ... :-) http://news.yahoo.com/lego-takes-skylanders-disney-infinity-115913380.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blakstone Posted April 9, 2015 (edited) Indeed it is another Gandalf with the same print. A nice homage but it is not a harbinger of more sets to come. EDIT: The Polygon article mentions expansion packs including a Lord of the Rings one with Gollum, Gimli, and Legolas. Still no new characters but the more Lord of the Rings that LEGO wants to make, the better. Indeed it is another Gandalf with the same print.
