What sets would you like to see Lord of the Rings get in the future?

The Lord of the Rings theme needs Battle Packs or a CMF series so collectors can build up their armies without having to spend $25 or more per soldier.

All of these are great ideas! One I think would be great is a $30-$40 Treebeard set, Treebeard as a buildable figure, include Merry and Pippin who can ride on his shoulders and a single Orc with a small catapult side build for them to fight. Basically similar to an AT-ST set in scale and Minifig count.

I agree with these and you could do so much more: 1. The Prancing Pony 2. Lothlorien 3. The Green Dragon Inn 4. Osgiliath 5. Minas Morgul 6. The Grey Havens 7. The Argonath 8. The Paths of the Dead

One of my favorite scenes is when Arwen and Frodo cross the Bruinen chased by the 5 ringwraiths 🥰 I'd love a smaller set of that scene.

If the theme really comes back with more sets, I want to see more smaller dioramas. Most sets should be under $120. Most collectors and fans don't have the money for the crazy huge and expensive sets.

As great as these ucs type master builder sets would be, I am more interested in smaller army builder sets that they could do because that fits a cheaper most people’s budget.

I'm so glad LEGO is coming out with new LOTR sets! I missed the opportunity to get the original releases at retail price, so most of them are not in my collection. I'm hoping for a long line of Lord of the Rings in the near future! 😍😍

I wouldn’t mind a Lothlorien, or Amon Hen set. I wonder if the Argonath could be feasible as a set. Other interesting locations include Minas Morgul and Cirith Ungol.

If there's something I'd want, I would LOVE a LotR minifigure series.🤩

Kinda like how they did half the black gate in their 2012 release, I feel like they could release half of minis tirith. Then if people wanted to buy two and build the symmetrical side they could. I would only want a rivendell-like minifig scale though. Id rather have a non-accurate playable set with sweet minifigs than a microscale

Orthanc doesn’t need a remake. It is pretty much perfect.

I heard in Solid Brix Studios' review of the LEGO Rivendell set that LEGO most likely Bring back the theme in full IF the Set sells well. So we are going to have to vote with our Wallets.

I’d love to think large huge sets would be honestly amazing but I feel like so many lego sets are so expensive nowadays where it would be nice if they had cheaper sets too as not all of us can buy 10 500$ sets.

I would love to see a You Shall Not Pass set with the Balrog! An updated set with Smaug would be nice as well.

I’m really curious: What’s happening with The Lord of The Rings theme now, could this also happen with Pirates of The Caribbean? I would buy a lot of their sets if the theme ever came back. (Really happy with the return of LOTR already, thanks Lego)

Prancing Pony would be amazing

A Minas Tirith in Minifigure scale with around 8000 pieces for 800€ would be crazy but i would buy it as soon as I could.

I love these ideas dude!

Just excited that video like this is getting made and that these sets are actually a possibility. A year or so ago this seemed like a pipe dream.

Love these top 10 videos you are doing 👍👍

It would also be great to get some smaller dioramas from The Hobbit. Things like Riddles in the Dark, The Dwarven Thrown, The Necromancer, or even The unexpected gathering.

I loved every idea. Good job

Another one I'd really want would be a small diorama about Galadriel's mirror.

As much as the buildable figs are hit or miss, we need a buildable Sauron Definition of epic

There was a rumor we were to get The Eye of Sauron (Barad-Dûr) sometime this year if not the next. Saying it would come with Sam, Frodo, some Orcs and possibly Gollum (Maybe a Sauron minifigure if I remember correctly) but I'm only taking it with a small grain of salt. I really hope they do make it though. Would be amazing!

Numbers 1-5 are definitively a musthave

We NEED to get Helms Deep and Orthanc sets!

I would love to see a Diorama set of the Last Alliance on the cliffs of Mordor. Isildur, Elendil, Elven soldier, Elrond, Arnor Soldier, Orcs, and Sauron.

I know the Eiffel tower is over 10k pieces, but I think as far as themes based on fictional IPs, LOTR really has the potential to break past the 10k piece ceiling for some sets. That's my hope as least, for them to make some truly epic sets worthy of Tolkien's world.

I would like to see a set for Lothlorian

I think the upcoming Medieval Market could make a great Prancing Pony!

I think “Speak friend and enter” is a lot more fire as a quote ;)

We need an official LEGO Olog-hai! Great video!

“Speak, friend, and enter.”

Personally, i'd want a set of the war from the beginning of Fellowship, complete with a Sauron bigfig!

I also think that if the LotR series will be revived, it deserve to be in the D2C/UCS kind of way… most of the locations such as Helms Deep, Minas Tirith, Barad dur, or even Osgiliath or Cirith Ungol, Lorien etc. are big sires and should be done properly as Rivendel. But then there is a space for smaller sets such as minifig packs for army building (Rohirum, Gondor) and smaller events (Shelob vs Frodo/Sam, Balrog, Whitch King, Oliphant… ). This would be best selling sets for sure.

Those are all great! Add on The Battle of Amon Hen, The Argonath, Fangorn Forest & Lothlorien.

I'm still disapointed that we didn't get 20$ or 30$ Nazgul dragon set for people who can't buy the 500$ set

I think Mt. Doom as an 18+ diorama would be sick. The one you showed worked fine. However, I preferred the "cast it into the fire," quote. And you could include all the characters from the 3 tines we see that location. So we could finally get a Sauron figure. Isildur and young Elrond. As well as Frodo, Sam, and Gollum. I know that's a lot of figures for a fairly small set, but a man can dream.

The thing I don't like about this list is that almost every set you want is some huge diorama (except Eowyn and Witch King) that would probably cost at least 150$ +. LEGO fans are tired of LEGO releasing tons of absolutely ridiculously expensive sets, even if they are beautiful (which they are obviously). I feel like this company is out of touch with their fans, I know they want to profit even more, because they see that LEGO is getting more recongized than ever before, but c'mon, make this more accessible for not super rich people.

I feel the best way for Lego to do a minifig scale Minas Tirith would be to do a sort of Harry Potter approach where multiple sets could combine into one massive set. You could do outer wall segment sets with an orc battering ram, catapault and mumakil. You can do middle tier wall sets with a nazgul and siege towers. Then you have a top level set with the garden. Make it as big as you want and build both armies as you go!

For set #6 Mount Doom, they definitely need to put some lights under that lava to really make it glow!

Awesome video ashnflash

do u have any predictions on when or around when will these new sets be released

Ever since I played the level on the game I've always wanted a war elephant set with the Oliphaunts.

I’m always going to prefer most playsets, but 40$-70$ dollar dioramas in can work with!, I think one figure I want is ( not in the movies ) Tom Bomedell!, he’s one of my favourite characters in the books!

I would buy all of these. I have a couple of the small Lord of the Rings sets from the first run, but I would love to be able to add all of these locations to my collection.

A good diorama would be "You bow to no one"

I feel a major thing this revival of the brand needs to do is provide an easy and cheap way to army build, say 5 figure packs with a small build and those weapon baggies. You could do one for Gondor, the Elves, Rohan, the different breeds of orc like Moria, Gundabad, Mordor, Uruk Kai. It would help populate these larger builds in more ways like for a Helms Deep or a Minas Tirith. The dioramas are a great idea for smaller scale scenes, include in them a bunch of wanted characters that you can now easily get, but say for those that don't fit in any planned sets, I think a CMF could do really well. Have some variants of the Fellowship, a Nazgul, some named orcs, maybe cameo some game characters like Talion or Rabag from the Mordor games. It would be a great idea

I think the fallen, half-buried head of the statue in the woods at Amon Hen would make such a cool little desk top moc.

the eye!! YES!!

Barad-Dur, Minas Tirith, and/or Pelennor Fields are must have sets

I haven’t bought Lego in 8-10+ years. If The Lord of the Rings sets come back, I will empty my entire bank account and buy every set I can get my hands on. You bet your ass I’m buying this $600 CAD set.

A recolor and slight remold of the Smaug figure would make an AWESSOME Fell beast! Also I would love to see a proper Balrog :D oh! and we NEED a good Brick built Sauron figure. The one from the game was EPIC :D Please, LEGO, Give Gandalf a better staff piece XD I think it would be HILARIOUS if they made a Denathar Minifigure that you could attatch some sort of back piece that lets you add flames, so Gandalf could say "So passes Denathar..." As he runs by flaming XD

In the #3, they could have an ellifont in the background - could be pretty awesome

Was the interview you mentioned going to come to the channel? Would be interested to see it, thanks!

Couple other ideas: Map art of Middle Earth Bilbo Troll Encounter (no stone- hobbit, stone for LOTR) Council of Elders (Hobbit) Riddle in pool (hobbit) Beorn's Home

They better make more, I finished Rivendell today and have spent like an hour just staring at it

What about using the avatar legs and arms for a Lego Sauron minifigure? Because of his height.

I hope for more d2c sets

I would definitely like a Mirkwood forest 18+ set with a couple giant spiders and all the dwarves and Bilbo. Definitely want more Hobbit sets as well.

I would assume that if they didn’t want to retouch the shire due to being proud of bag end, then any sort of orthanc remake will be off the table full stop, to the lay person they are just too similar and it doesn’t make sense to sell both at the same time the original orthanc still holds up incredibly today so I think it would be more of a UCS tumbler style remake if they did it at all. Besides this a certain image showed that Barad dur is most likely on the way first and imo that’s for sure the right choice, the eye is one of the most iconic things in movie history. I personally just hope it’s same scale as the original tower of orthanc and has a Sauron figure so I can display them together!

A nice small scale set could be Buckleberry ferry - potential for playability and also mounter Nazgul! For Minas Tirith - gate of Minas Tirith and Grond.

Cool

I would love to see a bag end set based off the hobbit with Bilbo, Gandalf, and all of the dwarves

I'd love to see the underground where the Uruk hai are created yk just for somthing different, maybe a Salron fig with like 2 basic Orks and 1 or 2 Uruk hai one in full armour and/or one thats just been "made", couple side builds like weapon racks, some basic rock builds and maybe a build for the pits that the Uruk hai are made.

it's interesting, the titial of the two towers is a point of contention in lord of the rings. most assume that the two towers are Barad Dür and Orthanc, but they also could be The tower of the moon in minas Morgul which actually appears, the towers of the teeth which are the only things in the books to be called two towers, the white tower of Minas tirith and the dark tower of mordor, or they could be metaphorical of either good and evil or Aaragorn and Sam as the two main characters being the towers standing against evil.

How about a LEGO Mumakil with Haradrim minifigures? For characters we haven’t gotten as minifigures, I would like to see Eowyn, Faramir, Celeborn, Denethor, Elendil, Isildur, and of course Sauron.

helms deep yes!!

Another idea for a diorama: Aragorn charging the Black Gate and the quote, obviously, "For Frodo"

Prancing Pony/Bree would be cool, so would a big bionicle esque sauron

Unpopular opinion: the $500 set should of been the prancing pony or they should at least make it a set

Defiantly a new Bag End

Tee hee hee! “Throw Gollum in there” !?!?! Isn’t that what happened? And of course he’d need to be there!

The shire is a must

Gondor, oliphant ambush, Barad-dûr, witch king of Angmar vs. Eowyn, battle packs!

8:18 They could make a few defensive posts and maybe even one of those war elephant things along with it.

I think a pass of caradhras set would be awesome for a diorama, that moment where Boromir picks up the ring is one of my favourite moments Doubtful Lego would give us all 9 companions but it would work I think Or the bridge of Kazad Dum, I’m a bit surprised we didn’t get that at all the first time around

I especially want the mines of Moria to be a set, it's one of my favorite scenes from the movie and I'd love to see an 18+ version

I think you maybe go with a playset for the Aowen vs Witch King because the ground is so boring and kids would like the dragon thing the witch king rides.

Prancing Pony , the Argonath, Weathertop , Lothlorien, Minas Tirith, Path of the Dead, Bag End, Bobandils house, Barrow Downs, Barad Dur my list of 10 sets.

Thanks for making the videos it helps keep Middle Earth Lego in the minds of the average Lego consumers. I would like to see Lego produce some sets of people and places they haven't done before. Your idea of the dioramas is probably their best bet, so the scale would be proper. Doing Helms Deep, the Tower of Orthanc, would be a waste, it would just a modified facade of the original sets. The new Rivendell set is just a beefed up version of the Council of Elrond set, it is nothing close to an actual complete Rivendell build. There is no way Lego would build anything that large close to scale. The Tower Orthanc would have to be about 12 feet tall, Minas Tirith over 25 feet tall, and Barad dur would be almost 100 feet tall. There are builders making those kinds of mocs way better, Lego needs to just find their lane and make good sets the target audience would want (AFOL's). I have been building an Edoras moc for about 8 years, with 5 large structures, 3 small ones, and the gate that would go around most of it. It will be at least 6 x 6 feet when complete, but I would never expect Lego to do it. Unfortunately Lego is Lazy and they are not designing for the AFOL market, those of us that really want it just build it ourselves. With great designs coming from LegoMocLoc, STEBRICK, and Brickstruct, it can be done with desire, time, and money of course. If you want to see what Lego should have produced for Rivendell, check this out. Just for your future videos, the Witch King is a Nazgul his creature is a Fellbeast, it would make for a great diorama build though. rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-62284/LegoMocLoc/ucs-rivendell-complete-bundle/#details

Barad-dur, and Eowyn and the witch king were the very first things that came to mind for me. It’s crazy to me that we haven’t gotten those. “I am no man” is literally perfect for the quote tiles!

yessir keep lego lotr alive

There are so many ways they could do Minas Tirith 1 - as a microscale model it would do the whole structure justice but it would only be a display piece you wouldn't be able to modify it so well 2- as a kindy of stumpy but nevertheless minifigure scale size model of the whole thing, but it would end up looking like the 2012 Helm's Deep which is fine but they'd really have to skimp out to fit the whole thing. 3- as a sort of 3 in one type model you could make a tower and trebuchet, a wall and siege tower, a plaza and gate, but like all 3 in one sets the pieces would have to be so general that again it wouldn't do it justice 4- (This is what I think they should actually do) bring out 3 separate sets each like the rivendell in scale and accuracy. a- The front gate and Grond b- a section of a town square with homes, towers, a library and a market c- the stewards hall with the white tree courtyard

Any and all of these sets coming out would make me cream my jeans. I missed out on the first lotr wave and just getting into lego now with Rivendell. Would love to build a whole middle earth table with these.

We need that Eye of Sauron/Barad-Dur badly.

Heavily disagree So obviously: 1 - Minas Tirith 2 - Edoras but... 3 - The grey havens and boat 4 - Osgiliath (here you'd have the Nazgul and fellbeast) 5 - Oliphaunt (here you have Eowyn) 6 - Minas Morgul /or/ Cirith Ungol. (each are stunning but thematically they're too alike) 7 - The green dragon inn (with a wee bridge, and a market, and a mill, that'd be so cute) 8 - microscale argonaths (nice office desktop gifts) 9 - Sauron (I'm inclined against Barad Dur because it just looks like a black thorny dildo, but we do need Sauron) 10 - The party tree

The eye of Sauron set should have a light brick built into it. That would be ideal.

We got the shards of Narsil, we need the sword Anduril

Is there gonna be a video talking about your interview with the design team?

Those ideas are good and hopefully LEGO will turn some of those ideas into real sets, especially Minas Tirith if only Rivendell sells well of course. Also have you considered making missing LEGO Lord of the Rings characters that we never got in their minifigure form just like you did LEGO Star Wars III the Clone Wars and LEGO Marvel Super Heroes

Here's some sets that I want it LEGO releases: - The Battle of Amon Hen, (I want a Minifigure of Lurtz) - The Prancing Pony (with The Nazguls) - The Fangorn Forest, (with more Ents) - The Battle of The Pelennor Fields, (Like The new Rivendel's Set, with a Mumakil, Giant Trolls, War Towers and Grond, that would be awesome) - The War of the Last Alliance (Isildur, Elendil, Young Elrond AND SAURON, WOW, take all my money LEGO.

I personally think it would be cool to have a microscale minas morgule built out of glow in the dark bricks to capture how it looks in the movie. I'm not sure how well the glow would hold up in the long run, wich is why I think it would be better at a smaller scale.

I'd love to see a set for Amon Hen

It would be awesome if we got a line of Modular hobbit holes!

YES

personally I'd love to see more minifigure scale stuff with the iconic moments like Eowyn and the Witch-King or the Mouth of Sauron. As you can probably tell I like the minifigures and the really quality designs we got in 2010

Everyone forgets Merry was also essential in fighting the Witch King
