LotR sets revealed!

[Heir of Black Falcon]

Sounds like some TRU stores had them in stock. I called one and was told that they 'had' had them.

At TRU more often it is BOGO 1/2 off.

As an avid orc army builder, I am definitely getting the Orc Forge and the Uruk Army. Too bad that will probably be the extent of my spending. :/

Same here exept i only want The Uruk Army, and maby the Orc Forge. So little money for so many good stuff.

the prices are better at Target: http://www.target.com/s?searchTerm=lord+of+the+rings+lego&category=0|All|matchallany|all+categories gonna check out the target near my house on my way home. edit ah they give a release date of may 16th. and they say not sold in stores.

[krzyzak]

I sometimes buy from Target, so if they sell sets at better prices, I'm going. Of course, there's this new Lego store opening up near me, so.....

[athronieth]

A Target store is less than a mile away from my house. They have a gigantic amount of CITY sets right now and recently stocked a lot of NINJAGO, but fine with me to clear all that off for some LOTR..and the sooner the better!

[bronx]

..and the sooner the better!

My thoughts exactly!

I want my Rohirrim!

Odd, when attempting to pre-order Gandalf Arrives from Target, I got a 'Cannot ship to this address ... possibly due to restrictions for the state. I might as well wait a week and catch the bus to my local Target.

[Heir of Black Falcon]

Looks like the target website states they come out there the 16th so call first.

So, it's the 16th -- anyone pick up one of the sets?

I haven't, but there are a few reviews on EB.

I went to a local Target today and they didn't have any LOTR stuff out. Lots of SW and some Avengers, but no LOTR

EDIT: Just read the EB review, and HOLEY MOLEY THOSE ROHIRRIM TORSOS ARE AWESOME!

[Medieval Guy]

I agree, those torsos are nice. The other gear the soldiers have is great too. The shield is awesome, and the helmets are cool. The Uruks look good too.

[krzyzak]

Those guys are awesome! The orcs fit the bill for evil minions.

[AK_Brickster]

What do you guys think about flipping the orc torsos around and using the back as the front? It seems like you could use it for human soldiers if you did that and it would look pretty slick.

Here is the pic from the EB review linked above:

That might work for peasants and outlaws. Maybe I should get my character a new outfit.
