  1. Boy, I really hope Disney knows what they're doing here. Because even as a hardcore Star Wars fan, I have my reservations about one film a year.
  2. ^ I would be highly skeptical if the contract for LotR is more restrictive than it is for Star Wars.
  3. Best trailer so far!! I'm really looking forward to this one.
  4. Wow, I love it!! I recognized that it was Smaug instantly.
  5. Deathleech is right -- if it's the minifigures you're after, then the magnets are cost-prohibitive. But as a novelty item they are pretty neat!
  6. Just as a heads up, the U.S. Lego S@H site has the brand new Frodo and Bilbo magnets for sale. They look very nice and feature the minifig with a related background image: http://shop.lego.com/en-US/LEGO-The-Lord-of-the-Rings-Frodo-Baggins-Magnet-850681. I ordered the Frodo version along with another Orc Forge (my 4th) and Uruk-hai Army (my 7th) today!
  7. New Zealand is definitely on my "bucket list" as far as places to visit. I'm so glad they opted to build permanent structures this time around; hopefully they stay well-maintained for years to come.
  8. Just my opinion, but I have a feeling that this is the last we'll see of Rohan and Uruk-hai - at least for a little while. I would hope that the next LOTR wave will focus on Gondor.
  9. '42'. Fantastic film!!
  10. My wife used this video in her 7th grade math class to teach the kids about scale models yesterday. Needless to say, it was a hit!
  11. Nice posters! That definitely lends some credibility to the Iron Patriot armor being released someday. Here's hoping!
  12. ^ Go look again. It's pretty clear that the Han minifig is the May the 4th exclusive.
  13. I picked up yet another Orc Forge at Target today. Which brings my current LotR standings to: Helm's Deep (x2), Mines of Moria (x1), Weathertop (x2), Orc Forge (x3), Uruk-hai Army (x6), Shelob Attacks (x1), Gandalf Arrives (x2).
  14. ^ I believe so, yes. I'm incredibly excited for this wave! As much as I love the large sets, my favorite has to be the Geonosis Duel. I don't know why I never noticed it before, but the landing pad looks great!
  15. Speaking as one who was "deceived" (to put it in Good Cragger Fan's words) by Kmart, it's really not worth getting worked up over. And I highly doubt there was anything illegal involved -- just a premature product listing.
  16. I had a $10 Walmart gift card to burn, so I picked up the Malevolence. It was on rollback to $95.96 already, so it brought it down to about $92 with tax.
  17. I have to agree with you, Deathleech. This would have been the perfect opportunity to release some new Orcs. But what do we get? The same old Orc minifigs.....with one wearing an Uruk-hai helmet?! Ugh....
  18. I'll definitely be getting two of the Black Gate sets right out of the gate (pun intended ), and I'll probably look into getting a second Corsair ship when there's a sale. I only wish that the Council of Elrond included some army-builder minifigs, since it would be great to get multiples of that one as well.
  19. Great job, man! I love the work you've done with these!
  20. Nice job, deskp. I'm planning on doing something similar, so it's great to start formulating ideas on how to go about it.
  21. It won't be. I had the same issue as KyleJohnson11 and received Weathertop instead. I turned around and returned it.
  22. I just ordere Battle at the Black Gate!! I'll be picking it up on my way home from class this evening, assuming it's ready for pickup by then.
  23. Wha--!!! They're for sale now?!
  24. I seem to remember hearing June being thrown around for the wave's release, but I could be wrong.
  25. I plan on ordering the entire wave (perhaps even two of the Black Gate) on Day 1 from S@H. Bring on June!!
