Or anyone appeal, based on reviews 😅

I think he was talking about the printed one, the old sets had tiny plastic cape about that size on some of the knights.

Why does everyone want bara-dur? It would be very similar to orthanc but without an interesting interior. They never even go there in the movie. (I don't have orthanc)

As soon as I got the Medieval Blacksmith, I was inspired to make my own build in the same style to go with it. Jose's Inn has a full 360* exterior and full interior with removable floors like the blackmith.

My project, "José’s Inn" is now on Lego Ideas: https://ideas.lego.com/s/p:850f7f9538764ce5b37303bc9a98988f The build has full 360* detailing and full interior. More pictures here: https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjAjPZk

I'll be getting the Gandalf+Balrog and Aragorn+Arwen which are great and good (respectively). However I will definitely not get the hideous naked baby Gollum and buzz cut Frodo.

Chatting on the Bricklink page with the designer about changes to make it work with the designer program, mostly replacements for retired pieces and figuring out the minifigs with the limited parts available. I didn't really influence things at all, but got to see a large part of the design process and changes before the crowdfunding. https://www.bricklink.com/r3/designer-program/designer-sets-for-adult-fans-of-lego/215665/Castle-in-the-Forest

Same, It is one of my favorite sets and displayed with pride. It was fun to help with the development process, and I got lucky when ordering.
