I have been a fan of Lord of the Rings for almost 50 years. This is my first Lego kit in the theme and it was a lot of fun to build.
I would recommend this to a friend!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My husband built this and loved it. He said it was an easy build and was a lot of fun. He displays it in his office and said he might get the books to go with it. You can move it easily which is nice!

It was a great build and will be sitting in between my copies of the Lord of the Rings books on my shelf. It would be nice if the ends of the book were closed in but I put taller books to close the sides in.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Such a fun time & so detailed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the coolest Lego set I’ve built! I was not missing any parts but ended up having a few extras with almost every bag. The guide is very detailed and helpful, we definitely would not have been able to build anything without it. The balrog itself seems kinda flimsy and the feet do not clip on to anything which I felt was kind of a bummer for stability purposes especially if you decide to actually use it for a book nook. I personally will be using it as decoration in fear that something may break. When you close it into its smaller form, the left side does not want to sit flush and clip in anyways. However, It could just be something faulty with the Legos in that specific pack. I would definitely buy something like this in the future. The theme really added to the fun.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great build for any LEGO and LOTR fan. Has a lot of smaller pieces that form these interesting mechanisms to let the wings fold up. The instruction booklet has fun facts related to the set inside and quotes from the books to enjoy while you build. The bags are easily labeled so if you don’t want to marathon build you can space it out in smaller sessions easily.

Balrogs don't have wings
on June 3, 2025

Verified Purchase:No
Balrogs don't have wings! "The Balrog reached the bridge. Gandalf stood in the middle of the span ... His enemy halted again, facing him, and the shadow about it reached out like two vast wings ... suddenly it drew itself up to a great height, and its wings were spread from wall to wall" The first mention is a simile, comparing the Balrog's shadows to wings, and the second mention references the first.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
