MEMBER OWNS SET: YES MEMBER HAS BUILT SET: YES

FIRST IMPRESSION | Score: 9

The day I saw this set was going to be relased I just said wow. I new it would be an iconic set to rember.

UNIQUE PARTS | Score: 6

The one thing this set lacks is minifigures. You would think for 200$ you could could get a few more than 4 minifigures. And the main one comes in a 15$ set.

PLAYABILITY/BUILD EXPERIENCE | Score: 9

The build was surpriseingly easy. Although playability is great with a trap door, hidden stair case, and many outher features.

VALUE FOR MONEY | Score: 9

I feel Lego is charging 200$ for a 300$ set. The price is great on every thing but the mini figures. I don't thnk it is a great set to part out because there are so few minifigures.

THEME POPULARITY | Score: 9

I belive the Lord of the Rings theme will do very well with adult fans after it has been retired.

EXCLUSIVITY | Score: 8

The set is only avaible at Lego stores, and shop at home.

PACKAGING | Score: 8

it has a very thick box.

GROWTH POTENTIAL | Score: 10

I belive this set has great growth potential because of how cool it is.

DISPLAY QUALITY | Score: 9

This set is unique becuase of its height.

CONCLUSION & FINAL ANALYSIS | Score: 9

Over all it is a great set for all.
