They didn't. The Brickheadz was a January release and Rivendell came in March. They made a retail set a gwp, not turned a gwp into a retail set.

If the legs are only for riding Shadowfax, them being unprinted wouldn't be much of an issue.
-
What would they print on the skirt? I'm kinda sad Gandalf the White has regular legs and not a skirt piece...
-
Yeah, you can be sure Lego will go after this, and hard. But the video is genuine. And the set marvellous. Wouldn't be too hopeful - previous gwps didn't exactly have much of a connection to their sets.

LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 29. Rumors and discussion
Cyprinus replied to Robert8's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Which would fit the previous maidens we got. A "civilian" torso and skirt, but a shield and weapon -
She also has a unicorn horn pendant. could get a matching wand or something.

LEGO Collectable Minifigures Future Series Rumours
Cyprinus replied to r4-g9's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Most likely scenario - leaker/source got told it is a 2026 movie without getting a name and it got delayed later on. -
They failed, hard, last time. Why would they do "fine" now?
-
That time came quite a while ago :P

Rivendell is vastly different from Minas Tirith (or Barad-Dur for that matter) in that the look of the location as a whole is far less iconic than individual scenes playing out there. MT is the exact opposite - all the scenes playing out there are nowhere near as iconic as the city as a whole. Lego definately doesn't want to skip that. And how do you propose an amalgamation of scenes would look like? A scaled down courtyard of the white tree, with some facades in the back and a tiny bit of wall with a gate right below it? Don't think that would look great...
-
Minas Tirith doesn't exactly have much in the way of interiors that would need to be done though...
-
Minas Tirith is all but guaranteed to be like Barad-Dur - microscale exterior with some rooms acceessible from the back (the throneroom, maybe a room with the Palantir near the top).

LEGO Collectable Minifigures Future Series Rumours

Everything that existed for at least a year, yes. It might not be ones celebrated (since we tend to focus on specific numbers, generally multiplies of 5), but the anniversaries are there. -
LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 29. Rumors and discussion
Cyprinus replied to Robert8's topic in Special LEGO Themes
Not impossible, but we already have 2 figures referencing other themes. I wouldn't really expect a third one. -
LEGO Collectable Minifigures Series 29. Rumors and discussion
Cyprinus replied to Robert8's topic in Special LEGO Themes
The only weird thing is that it is two named characters - having two figs reference old themes is perfectly normal for a cmf. -
Makes sense for microscale.

Latest impact of other themes on historic themes
Cyprinus replied to Wardancer's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
It is basically the Nexo Knights Moorington crest. There also is a flag in the set. -
2025/26 Castle [wishlist/speculation]
Cyprinus replied to GreenhouseBricker's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
Well, yes. If the complaint is a valid one. Complaining your lawn mower is bad at cutting grass is a valid complaint. Complaining it doesn't play music, kinda less so. And complaining about a set from the Garden series lacks figs is kinda the latter. -
2025/26 Castle [wishlist/speculation]
Cyprinus replied to GreenhouseBricker's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
And none of the previous gardens had figs. This is on the level of complaining a cmf doesn't come with a castle build. -
2025/26 Castle [wishlist/speculation]
Cyprinus replied to GreenhouseBricker's topic in LEGO Historic Themes
According to leaks, 11370 is Stranger Things. -
I guess this means we can't say many people were disappointed with the Death Slice - no proper survey was made. Just comments on various sites, forums and discord servers. The same thing I based my MT comment on.
-
I don't understand why someone would buy something they don't like (or is flat out shite) just because it has a label. Funnily enough the Death Slice approach wouldn't work for MT - too little happens in its interiors. Which is one of the reasons approaching it like Hogwarts Modular Castle wouldn't work. But to the vast majority of people MT means the whole city, with its unique shape and look. A hobbit hole with some greenery is a much better representation of the Shire (also, if not microscale getting multiple hills with Hobbit holes would be unlikely) than having, say, the courtyard with the white tree and calling that MT.
-
The issue is that the single most iconic element of Minas Tirith is the shape of the whole city. Barad-Dur, unlike Minas Tirith, basically had no scenes that mattered. Even less so with characters.
