Hold onto your hobbit feet, folks! Lego is dusting off those nostalgic adventures and bringing Frodo, Samwise, Merry, Pippin, and Bilbo back to the Shire in a brand new set that’s sure to make even the hardiest of orc slayers weep with joy.
Set to launch on April 5th with a hefty 2,017 pieces priced at $269, this set includes nine minifigures for your respective Lego Middle-earth-filled fantasies. Yes, you heard me right—*nine*! That’s more minifigures than you have friends to play with, but who’s counting?
Among the big names are Gandalf (because every adventure needs a wizard—and let’s face it, he probably has a coupon code for Lego), Mrs. Proudfoot, Farmer Proudfoot, and, of course, the beloved Rosie Cotton. What’s that? You don’t know who all these characters are? Well, that’s a story for another day!
Let’s talk interactive fun—this isn’t just a pile of bricks. You can make Bilbo disappear (no, not in the “where did my lunch go?” sense) with a nifty dial, and mind-blowingly, there’s a burning letter that transforms into the One Ring.
It’s about time we had more reasons to label our extended weekends as ‘Hobbit Holidays,’ don’t you think? So, when you’re tired of trying to be responsible in your busy adult life, maybe grab this set and embrace your inner child (or questing hobbit).
What’s the first scene you’d recreate in your very own Middle-earth?
