Forgive me if this has been answered before but does anyone know what price the mircofighters will selling at in the Canada or the USA? I wonder if the turbo tank will be a good way to buy a large number of plain clone troopers.

Awesome review! Now that I have a better view of this set I will probably wait until I can find a good deal. Only really want the catapult and figs, although the parts could come in handy. Quick question, are the brown axe handles/wands/lightsaber blades hollow?

I for one am looking forward to picking up some of these sets. The forest ambush is a perfect army builder plus you get a decent amount of treasure and extra pieces to help build up my collection. i will be getting at least six of them for sure. Not to sure what people dislike about the figs but I think they look great! If I am not mistaken this is the first time LEGO has produced figs with brigandine armor printing Plus the three different styles for the "good" faction are really cool and I love all the different possibilities they give you for creating unique units! However, I wish the torsos with the mail printing was just mail without the blue "vest". This would allow for different color arms to be attached and allow for even more factions.

If not you can always join the 100's of Canadians who cross the broader to snap the great US prices. This has given me an even better excuse to duck across the border and do some serious Lego shopping. @ Infernum I just tried to order some online and have them shipped to Canada and it wouldn't let me.

I use them as another noble and his loyal men-at-arms.

The Hobbit.com has 10% off all Lotr sets (minus the Orc Forge) plus free shipping for orders over $50 dollars.

I really hope we get more Rohan sets. Maybe even another helmet mold to add variety. It would be a shame if Lego just used the current Rohan soldier design for every single Rohan set.

Whoa! That floor is almost mesmerizing. Love it! The details are quite lovely.

Actually I used some light grey arms on Eomer, as it matches the chain-mail under his tunic. The green arms would have been a Lego minifig fashion disaster lol

I checked my figures and they seem to have the new print too. So I swapped out the Rohan Soldier's dark green arms for Eomer's dark grey arms and now the red sash looks really good. The Rohan Soldiers look a little more armored and the colour scheme of dark grey, dark brown, with a hint of dark red blends really well. Of course you lose the the Rohan dark green scheme , but it gives you another variant for your army.

Amazing as always! Keep up the great work.

I really like the inkwell detail. Using the dark transparent colour (Transparent black is it?) really gives it a realistic glass stained with ink look. Its the small details like this that make me really excited to pick up these sets.

This Is amazing!! I love the battle damage on the castle. Where did you get the chrome coloured helmets?

I like how Lego uses different textures to make the door look old and battered. I'm wondering if Lego is going to start making brick-built doors from now on, or just a feature of LOTR sets. I'm kinda "meh" on the cave troll' face, but if the arms have better reach than the big trolls from the Castle line than I'll be ok with it.

Has Anyone been able to pick up one of these yet? Is the plastic good quality?
