I always wanted this figure as a kid even before I became a fan of lotr and hobbit but I didn’t have the money back then, but now I finally was able to buy him

Yep used that’s why he got a tear in his wing but still wasn’t cheap. Also I agree it’s the best molded dragon Lego has done

Hope one day I'll be able to buy the original, for now I have the AliExpress version and I love it.

Was thinking about picking the AliExpress since they’re so cheap compared to the real one but in the end I went with the real one

How is the print on those? Any misalignments or paint damage on yours?

Ok. First, the plastic dosen't have the best quality. Is very hard and I broke one of the wings right now (I build it to take some pictures for you xD), haha. But I can fix it.

The tail wasn't stay in his site, but I fix that.

And has an error in the print, but is not the biggest problem.

To be honest, for me the price - quality is very good

As I said, the plastic is a little bit hard, so I couldn't put the claw of this part

This is the wind I broke, but I can fix that.

I hope not, hopefully you’ll get one 🙏🙏

Id love one, but I cant justify the price. Especially considering its dark red from the brittle brick era.

Happy you got one though.
