The weapons selection is pretty standard for a Historic theme. Per the special request I have taken a picture of Bilfur without his beard and in the process reminded myself I left out his back printing. I like Yazneg's chest piece, it reminds me of something you'd see on a prison guard in some old beat up prison. There is back printing on all figures, I removed most headpieces to show the printing on the back of the heads, or the other faces on the Dwarfs. The torsos could easily be used in other historic themes, such as the Lord of the Rings, of Pirates of the Caribbean. As in my other review, I'm not a big fan of the small legs, but they are necessary to get the size of the Dwarf just right. įrom left to right we have Bifur the Dwarf, Thorin Oakshield, Hunter Orc, Yazneg, and another Hunter Orc. Remember there are high res pictures at my flickr account.
Both of these have quickly made my short list.
Awesome!Īs if the last page wasn't enough, you also get a nice preview of some of the larger sets in the Hobbit line. There is a little box for you to check off when you have one and they have gone as far as listing the set number that the figure comes in. instead of the usual random page of the instructions I'll show you something I absolutely love.Īt the end of the instruction manual is this spread of all the minifigures in the what I assume is the first run of Hobbit sets. Per standard operating procedure, the image on the front of the instructions is the same as the front of the box. No worries though as the front and back of the box make up for it ten fold. there is the standard box with a "to scale" minifigure and that's about it. The side of the box actually has a lot of empty space. I decided to do this in my review as well because I thought the weapon selection was worth it's own shot, apparently TLG did to. I also like something i don't recall seeing before, and that is a section on the back showing just the weapons. The flick fire bombs, the catapult, the Wargs. This is a good box!Īgain what more can I say than look at the beautiful pictures that show every fun aspect of this set.
This one does not disappoint I love how TLG is able to show all the features in action, like the fire being thrown from the trees and the small catapult. I love LEGO box art so much that I have saved every LEGO box I've ever bought since coming back to LEGO in adulthood. LEGO has a way of showing absolutely every feature of their sets in one picture.
According to my latest LEGO magazine these are available for purchase Nov. Christmas came early this year for me as I was selected to review a few upcoming Hobbit set.
