Seller has only one feedback bu tthey only live about an hour from me... I get to build some great sets without opening any of my NIB inventory! BP has the used value at about 200.00 so with free shipping not a bad deal.

Gamestop's Lego The Hobbit video game pre-order bonus "Good Morning Bilbo Baggins" Gamestop has revealed their exclusive "Good Morning Bilbo Baggins" minifigure for the PS3, PS4, PSVita, Xbox 360, Xbox One, Wii U, and 3DS. Via The Brick Fan

Now this is an awesome display. So much detail, my only issue (being picky) is with the simple tan flooring which needs a bit more detail but it is a jaw dropping effort! http://www.flickr.com/photos/onelug/sets/72157627770924700/

Another great deal for the LOTR Mines of Moria (9473) for only $61.91, that's 23% off!!!

I heard that a Lord of the rings Minas Tirith set is coming out sometime this spring. The price is gonna be about $120. I am really disappointed. Am I the only one. I was hoping for a 4000 piece set with many minifigs. I was thinking of contacting lego. Sent from my iPod touch using Brickpicker

According to Amazon, they are 22,9 x 18,9 x 3,6 in inches or 57,8 x 47,8 x 9,4 in cm. Which would be the same as palace cinema for example. Is there someone who has this set that can confirm those are accurate? I'm in Seattle a couple of days next week and thinking of picking one up, which would save me about $80 compared to buying it here. Wondering if this thing would fit into my suitcase. Thanks for looking!

So ive got over a dozen gandalf the greys i dont know what to do with....do i make a army of grey robed wizards? or attempt to sell them for near worthless prices they fetch? what are y'all doing with them? I really wish they wouldnt put him in everyset, a little character variaty would be nice.

Set its self amazing still has room for improvement though .The mini figs are boss but I would have appreciated an azog.And the wargs are through the roof.

Major props to the two gentlemen that made this. It is amazing and the detail is second to none. http://www.eurobricks.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=88940 Flickr page of more pictures. '' target='_blank'>>

Anyone know if Lake Town Chase is an exclusive to somewhere? Amazon doesn't have it available for pre-order.

I bought the Tower of Orthanc a few months ago and I was wondering, why didn't it come with a poster? All the time I've looked at the set online the picture of the box said "Poster inside!" but when mine came it didn't say that on the box and there was no poster included.

My son's and I sat down this last weekend to watch the 1st hobbit movie again in preparation for the new movie. Got me thinking about how strange it is that there is no official LEGO recreation of the Chief antagonist in any of the new Hobbit sets. My son (5) saw the dragon in 70403 and assumed this was Smaug. This set is now at the top of his Christmas list. Does anyone know if LEGO has plans to release a set or figure of Smaug? If not, should I be stocking up on 70403 considering with the target coupon and redcard this can be picked up for about 27 bucks before tax. Looks like the dragon alone is going for a pretty good price on Ebay. Anyone else pickin…

Has anyone seen or know of any polybags for the latest LOTR release. I believe there has been two for each release (hobbit included) before. Lotr- 30211- Uruk-Hai 30210- Frodo 30213-Gandalf 30212- Mirkwood elf

Someone on Eurobricks found this poster announcing The Hobbit video game.

So a walmart near me had An Unexpected Gathering's at $33.00 which is a very good price. Needless to say I cleaned them out of mint ones. However they have two left that are pretty beat up. They are intact as far as I can tell, but the boxes are really bad. So I am thinking about getting them and parting them out. I have never parted out a set so I am a little nervous about trying it. From looking at ebay sold listings it looks to be a profitable endeavor but I am not sure. Was wondering what everyone thinks on this and if there is anything I should be wary of. Thanks guys, - Vince

thing is, I have about $100 on my kmart rewards card. they have them for sale at $114. dont want to empty my rewards card but how low is a good low price for helms deep? $90 each?

Here is pic that's been spreading around the web a bit of a Lego Nazgul displayed at a Lego Store. Do you think this is a local MOC or a sign of something to come with the next wave? Hmmm, would this be a good for the resale of Attack on Weathertop, or is this a sign of more Ringwraiths being released?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Special-Offer-LEGO-The-Lord-of-the-Rings-Gandalf-Arrives-Model-9469-/321038905696 Not too late to get this "special offer" at such a super price. Great for parting out. Get a move on.

I just saw this tonight but it is the Tower of Orthanc at TRU. I thought it was going to be a Lego store exclusive. Heres the link. http://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=23949316 It isn't available to purchase yet, but I find it interesting that TRU has it on their site.

So far I have 2 helms deeps I got at 50% retail and it is still possible I will find a few at the current $85 plus %15 percent off. I have 32 unopened Uruk hai sets, most of which I got at $21. I have been parting them out for a while. My question is how many should I set aside to pair with my helms deeps when I decide to put them up for sale. The more boxes I add the more the shipping will go up, so should I consider offering the a ton of walls and hook shooters to make an enclosed caste and part out the minifigures?

I have always loved how they make these. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VQ6wkvDdyY

Evem at 30% off. I've stumbled across a bunch of Escapes, Attack of Wars, Unexpected Gathering, Riddle for the Ring and Goblin King Battle at 30% off. Picked up some but I'm returning them all minus the 2 Riddle for the Ring I bought. Also not a believer in Mines of Moria. I will probably keep 1 for myself but the rest are going back. Even at 30%.

I'm quite heavily invested in these. Just wondering who else is. I have at least 10 of Helm's Deep, Weathertop, Orc Forge and Uruk-hai Army, and at least 4 of Moria, Shelob and Gandalf. Most were bought at 20-30% discount on UK RRP.
