The Hobbit 2013 Sets ^You already got a Rivendell #79006Ok, you got a microscopic fragment of Rivendell. Basta said:These sets really are for the minifigure collector, if you are more just into the build\display side of Lego than I think baring a few exceptions you will be disappointed with these sets. They are also good as parts packs for MOCs. I've bought a few Mines of Moria and Helms Deep for exactly that reason. Not for the set itself, but for the parts. After selling off the minifigs, these work out cheaper than buying similar non-licensed sets such as the Kings Castle.Of course you need the draw of the minifigs to be able to shift them. Nice HR images of the Hobbit sets!79011 Dol Guldur Ambush 79012 Mirwood Elf Army 79013 Lake Town ChaseEnjoy ! @Hardrada - I was holding judgement until a better image. You are right, Thranduil's ears have been lowered to chin level, which is rather odd. But he does have Lee Pace's sexy eyebrows! The elven shield design is elegant and they did give us an extra one on the building.
Another thing apparently Peter Jackson decided that SleevesAreForWimps. See film Beorn image here. JerseyManiac said:I just found all 4 sets at my TRU in New Jersey. I got the Dol Guldur Battle and Mirkwood sets. They would not ring up at the register, saying they were not on sale until December. This is of course ridiculous as TRU ALWAYS gets set this early. But they were not in the system yet. The good thing about that is when not entered the system, the price checker assigns the normal lego price and NOT the ripp off TRU price. They did not have Ninjago or anything else new. So you folks in the US... It wouldn't ring up, but they sold it to you anyway? Did a manager have to override it? JerseyManiac said:I'm I really the only one that found them so far? Nope, lots are already on eBay. Is there an advertisement for 2014 LOTR sets in the instructions? They had them at my TRU as well. I picked up one of each. A manager had to come over to override the 'street date' warning.
I'll be taking photos of the figs this weekend. I can confirm the Azog is tan (dunno if there was any doubt remaining).No advertisement for 2014 Lord of the Rings, but there is an advertisement for a LEGO The Hobbit videogame for Spring 2014 (Xbox Live, Xbox 360, Nintendo 3DS, PlayStation, PC, Wii U as far as what's listed), as well as LEGO The Hobbit There and Back Again sets for 2014. It technically doesn't say anything about *sets*, but dunno what else the ad would be for. It also says "The journey concludes in 2014!"Photos coming soon of the advertisements... emilewski said:I wouldn't say that. They only have room for so much advertising, and this is Hobbit advertising future Hobbit theme sets. I still expect to see one more LOTR wave. The rumored sets & prices were posted almost a month ago on brickfan:rumored LOTR 2014 sets fizicyst said: emilewski said:I wouldn't say that. But suppose they keep it under covers as long as they did with Star wars this year, I wouldn't loose all hope just yet.
Lake town chase is online at TRU US. Deathleech said:Hey thanks for the pics! One other question, is Beorn's hair piece permanently connected to his head or is it two pieces like a normal minifigure? @sidersdd So... just to get it right - do you think this "JourneyConcludes"-add is saying that we are to expect a 3rd Hobbit wave, or that this 2nd wave is the conclusion? icey117 said:@sidersdd So... just to get it right - do you think this "JourneyConcludes"-add is saying that we are to expect a 3rd Hobbit wave, or that this 2nd wave is the conclusion? 3rd wave for sure! As wave 2 is a 2013 release! @minifigman11 Well, doesn't it make sense that a 3rd Hobbit wave would be released summer 2014 with the movie, which would make a LOTR-3rd wave (if there be one) be released end 2014?? Lego The Hobbit video game due out next year UPDATE: Due in spring, but will only feature first two films. UPDATE: Warner Bros. has confirmed Lego: The Hobbit for a spring 2014 release on 3DS, Mac, PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Wii U, Xbox 360 and Xbox One.
But unlike other Lego releases, the game will only include action from two films out of a trilogy - Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey and the upcoming Desolation of Smaug. Jackson has squeezed a third film out of the book too - The Hobbit: There and Back Again, which is due to be released in cinemas in November 2014. Presumably this will in turn be covered by another Lego Hobbit game. ORIGINAL STORY: A Lego The Hobbit video game will launch in 2014, leaked promo art has suggested. Hobbit-themed Lego sets due to launch next year include the artwork on the back of instruction booklets, Lego fan site TheBrickFan reports. 3DS, PC, PlayStation 3, PlayStation 4, Wii U, Xbox 360 and Xbox One versions appear to be in the works. "Coming sortie pr�vue en 2014," the artwork states. "Coming out in 2014." Lego versions of Bilbo, Thorin and Gandalf are shown. The third and final Hobbit film is due to be released on 17th December 2014, which makes an end-of-year launch likely.
Warner Bros. declined to comment when approached by Eurogamer, but we may hear more at the VGX Awards next month. Lego Lord of the Rings launched last autumn to high praise. It included an open world version of Middle Earth to roam around in, and a playable Tom Bombadil.
