Thou shall not be thrilled

After putting together a wonderful Sherlock Holmes Book Nook, LOTR is a let down.. from Balrog to the overall design, it's a let down & unsure why this would be considered a book nook. It looks incomplete.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I was disappointed with the build of the Balrog - thought there could have been better detail throughout the build - especially on its back for an adult set. The reuse of the wings from another set was disappointing. I felt this was really overpriced for the value received.

Childish-looking

The pictures of the set make it look okay, but it is much uglier in real life. The Balrog looks nothing like it did in the movie. It looks like a children's stuffed toy. Also, this thing is way overpriced. Would not recommend

Pros:
-Is an excellent display piece both closed and opened with a nice color palette.
-Is an excellent display piece both closed and opened with a nice color palette.
-The cheapest lord of the rings set since the return of the theme.
-Doubles as a playset for those interested.
-Actually plays into the notion that LOTR is literature.
Cons:
-Tries to have it both ways by being a diorama with an action figure.
-Tries to have it both ways by being a diorama with an action figure.
-Not ideal price per piece
-Sides aren’t accommodating to smaller or paperback books.

Cool LEGO set for Lord of The Rings fans that can
on August 25, 2025
Posted by: leahs74_8389
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Lord of the Rings: Balrog Book Nook Lego bricks set is huge. I think it is a great set to gift for fans of the books and movies. I think that the idea to make the build transform into a book nook is very cool and something I have never see before. My family and I had a lot of fun building this together. There are a lot of small pieces so be careful not to leave this where little hands and mouths can reach. My only issue is that when you close the Lego the bottom hinges detach. Otherwise it looks very cool.

I would say I really liked ow it turned out, I had a hard time with the balrog itself though, maybe it was user error but the wings were just a pain.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I was excited to buy this set because it’s the first time since reviving the LotR theme a set came out that isn’t so big you need a new piece of furniture to display and so expensive you need a bank loan to purchase.
Hopefully now Lego will produce a Chronicles of Narnia set/theme to go with Hogwarts and Moria.
I would recommend this to a friend!
