Creme Brulee

I finished yesterday after having watched all 6 Hobbit and LotR movies during the build. I agree with the consensus that the minifigures were poorly spaced out and that there are too few of them, although I think the minifigures included are all very well-executed. The interior/back of the build is probably my favorite part, it all looks quite polished. There is quite a bit of empty space behind the Hall of Kings which is to be expected for such a large set but felt a little lacking. Overall I think it was really good value for the price, especially with Grond as the GWP and it is amazing to finally have a Lego Minas Tirith!

If the leak turns out to be legit, the Mûmak would go so well with Minas Tirith. It almost sounds too good to be true.

I've just placed an order as well! It feels surreal after having waited for so long.

-= A Marvel-ous day at Hogwarts =- Wanda Maximoff, AKA The Scarlet Witch, has been feeling nostalgic for a high school exchange she went on in her youth: to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. In fact, her longing is such that she loses control of her emotions, releasing a surge of chaos energy and transporting the Avengers to Hogwarts Castle itself. However, when they arrive, Scarlet Witch bewitches her fellow Avengers and traps them in magical portraits! As hard as they try, the Avengers cannot escape, but they continue their attempts at subduing the out-of-control Wanda. Hearing the ruckus, Professor Dumbledore and the heads of houses rush into the corridor, where they immediately grasp the situation and use their magic to reign in the chaos energy and bring the situation back into control.
