Mr. Cube

That shield is great piece. There is my custom Mordor Orc.

JakeChambers: My last hope were the Dimensions sets. Instead of updated Gimli and Legolas they could bring us some of the most desired characters - Sauron, Éowyn and generic Gondor Soldier.

I don´t think that there will be some return of the LotR/Hobbit theme. But we can create some MOCs with the existing pieces. And some new pieces are very interesting, like this new shield from LEGO Elves:

Maybe because of this:

And this is perfect for Morannon Orcs:

It was popular, but IMHO mainly among minifig collectors/LotR-Hobbit fans and AFOLS, not kids. And many AFOLS were dissapointed with the 2nd Lotr wave.It existed just for a couple of years because of the Hobbit trilogy. And about high prices - the prices of the retired products rise up... ...I´m still missing Blue Coat Bilbo from Blu-Ray...59€

Well, even the first pirates had smiley faced heads (with some additional prints - beard, moustache...) and I think that everybody will agree that they were "bad guys". For me, the Dragon Masters are separated "rebel" sub-faction of Black Knights.

Stupid finale. Orthanc itself is a great set, but Gondor faction, Balrog and Witch-king + Fellbeast are still missing.

Hello! Thank you for the comments! There are some photos of the final MOC:

Thank you for all replies! I´m glad that you like my MOC. MAB: Yes, brown Rohan helmets are from Jimmy´s store ;) original LEGO helmets just without printing. Deathleech: I have about 130 uruks + berserkers total (including 17 berserkers), in this MOC there are about 100 uruks + u-h berserkers. If I remember that correctly, I bought 16 berserkers sometimes in 2013 from one BL store, which had them for a good price, I bought also many uruks from that shop, it was pretty cheap (just heads, torsos and legs...the rest of the equipment I bougt from another sellers). There are some final photos, mostly details:

Hello! I just finished my new MOC from the Middle-Earth world. It captures the scene from the Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, shortly after the explosion of the deeping wall. I made it for one LEGO exposition there in Czech Rep. These photos were taken after I finished the MOC, the quality is not as good as I wanted, but in next few weeks I will upload better photos from the exposition. I hope you enjoy this.

Hmm...just minifigures with a micro build...why this and why not a proper battle-packs, TLC?

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.

Hi! There is my MOC, it´s completed about 85 %. I must do some additional steps to finish it, add some rocks, Sauron´s Eye and different helmets for the Ringwraiths. The idea of this MOC was to capture the scene from the Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, when the White Council confronted the Sauron and The Nine. There are some preview photos:
