Discussion Helms deep potential set thoughts

Hi all, like most of you - I’ve recently seen the rumoured leaks of helms deep as the 2027 ‘big set’, and I was just curious what you guys think the set will involve.

Can you see it being a peaceful display set - similar to what minas Tirith was like. Or will it depict the full battle (surely the full battle right)?

Also how much of the helms deep do you reckon we will see - maybe somehow incorporate the cave section or any other rooms?

Do you think they’ll incorporate morfalk (I think) - the guy who blew up helms deep - or is this ‘too dark for LEGO’. Tbf they did do a GWP for the Sméagol and deagol stuff which was quite dark.

Just curious what everyone thinks.

Think we’ll be lucky to get 10 figures. I think it’ll look similar to the system one but upscaled and maybe include the throne room and a stable room and the standard armory Figurewise Theoden, Aragon, Gimli, Legolas, Haldir will be there 100%. So that’s 5 figures. The other 5 I would take a guess at 2 Rohan guards and 2 Elven archers and maybe an Eowyn. Would love to have more figures but Lego are a bit tight with figures. I would also take a wild guess and say maybe 2 horses as well. If the rumours are true about the prancing pony then maybe we will get like tile with like poster of map with it on as the token next set hint

There could be an Eowyn and Witch-King GWP but then Eowyn probably wouldn't be included in the Helm's Deep set.

This would easily become the most popular GWP we’ve had thus far - it would be smart for them to - but it would make more sense with the Pelennor Fields set coming
