Great build. Great experience. Very detailed set. And love all the little “Easter eggs.” Sticker sheet was very bent between the instruction books though.

Great Build for LotR Fan
on June 11, 2024
Posted by: Granddad Gil
As both a LotR and Lego fan, this was a must have for me. And I think Lego did a great job given that Barad-dur is a dark subject for a Lego project versus the opportunity that Rivendale was.

An ambitious undertaking with good results
on June 11, 2024

While Barad-Dur isn't the most well described location in an otherwise very detailed Middle Earth, Lego and the designers have done a good job striking a balence with this set. I think it hits every mark of a modern adult set, some better than others of course, but I do believe the sum is greater than the parts for this set.
The display presence this set has is nearly unmatched. The build process is good having some great moments and some average ones just going through the motions - what keeps the build experience alive at an even pace is the gradual rise of this monstronsity. Play features are present and well attempted for an otherwise lack of detail on what it "should" be or have been. Minfigures while fewer than Rivendel, have great weight to most of them and some notable stand out stars. The design and color that comes together as you move through an otherwise common part list is what really impresses throughout the build.
Overall, price point is high, but lower than Rivendell when they could have easily went higher. I think it is a fanastic 2nd addition to the modern Lord of the Rings location sets.
I would recommend this to a friend!

What a set!

From the box design to every detail that follows after that seal is cut. This set is phenomenal, so happy with the Size and attention to detail. Can't wait to add mock details and build a scene matching of this incredible set. Thank you Lego.

Absolutely Amazing!
on June 11, 2024

I have been so excited to build this ever since it was rumored to be in design! I have loved the LEGO LOTR and Hobbit theme so to know they are being brought back is really exciting! This build was the perfect mix of challenge and fun. It was very similar to the tower of orthanc given all the darker peices but well augmented by the details within the interiror.
I would recommend this to a friend!
