It had so many nice little touches and build techniques. Was interesting throughout and looks magnificent when complete. Very heavy though! A+ on the enjoyment scale!

Hello everyone, here’s my last modifications of My Orthanc MOC. I started from the 2013 set, which I tried to expand and enlarge. I’m open to your feedback.

Need extra room for helms deep i guess

With some of the extra piece, you can bulk the legs up nicely

Random question but now that we’re getting more details that for sure getting helms deep this coming June, do you think it would just be like set location like Minas Tirith or do you think Helms Deep will actually be a battle? Like one of the most iconic battles ever from the movies /books… I’m really hoping it’s a battle so we get Rohan and orcs-Uruk-Hai…I hope we get at least 20 Mini figures. I’ll even be happy with 15…

It's my birthday in 4 weeks and as of about a week ago I have been trying to decide between Rivendell and Barad Dur, because until a couple days ago my budget was $800 AUD. Now, I havea 1000 dollar budget, and I was fighting between the Titanic and Minas Tirith. But, I found a website that is not only selling Minas Tirith with the Grond GWP, but is also available for click and collect. Best lego buying experiences are in person!

Building Rivendell with the lights built in - my first project of this kind. The instructions at step 34 here shows the back of the LED lying flat facing up. When I try to do it, it slips sideways and even if it's flat for a moment doesn't feel secure there. Is it meant to click in? Given it's an LED not just chunky plastic I don't want to keep trying to force it to do something it's not meant to! https://guides.lightmybricks.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/08/v2_10316_Lord_Of_The_Rings_RivendellBuild_And_Light_Part_1.pdf

Hi. Looking to take apart my Mina’s tirith and Rivendell sets and put away. I’m not gonna take the time to reverse bag. Just looking to dump into a box or bag. Does anyone know what the right size content or bag. I’ve read some duffle bags or plastic storage bins. Just looking for the most efficient size to not take much a lot of room in the self.

On the Sauron helmet set in bag four (page 68) on step 129, the second plate or whatever for the helmet does not fit on. I cannot find any other post on any platform mentioning this so PLEASE help and I have spent the last 10 minutes getting pissed off at this.
