I like better the bridge than the fortress but it will depend on the price. About the troll fortress I think it is the "style" that doesn't convince me that much: I would prefer something like MOCs I've seen posted here. Like this:

I think that this is the kind of troll building style I'd like to see in LEGO sets.
I second this opinion for sure! more of an unrestrained, undisciplined tribal look!

That's a bit pointless, those are all the photos we've already seen, in much worse quality because it's on youtube. Sequencing photos is hardly worth the video, I prefer to just browse a gallery so I can watch each photo in my own time, in much better quality than youtube can manage.

I really like these sets. I've never been bothered too much by the "childish build" of a set. In my opinion, these are less chidish than the much older sets, because they use new techniques. SNOT is being used a lot in these sets.
To those who are about to Lego: toss me a few bricks.
