I would take this Rumor with a huge grain of Salt. The Leaker is a Lego-Shop,tbh,i think he just wants to create more klicks on his Shop. The list just sounds too good to be true :/

A set even without Grawp would do,maybe a something like the Expecto Patr.Set,a Tree,Umbridge and 1-2 Centaur?! I guess Grawp is rather unlikely.

I wonder if Lego will introduce a new Centaur-mould,basically a Horse Body with connection Pins for any Minifigure Upper Body part! I know the Centaur are having very little screen time,but these would be a dream cone thru for every (Lego) Fantasy enthusiast :)

Overall the Set looks „ok“,but def.what i‘ve expected as a May the Fourth Set! Will def.wait till it hit shelves at other retailers to get it with at least 30% off. Right now i‘m a bit scared that they will screw up the (rumoured) Star Destroyer too,and won‘t label it UCS like the Tantive :/ All i want is a Star Destroyer to put on Display,please no Stud Shooter and stuff!

Huh? A couple pages ago you clearly said i‘m absolutely wrong,and there def.won‘t be a Graveyard? What changed your mind?

No problem,we will soon see who was right! All the other stuff that‘s rumoured right now,is exactly what he told me couple weeks ago,so i rather believe him ;)

There def.will be a Graveyard Set,from what i know it‘s from HP not FB!

Is that a Cow? How did you manage to get this one? Via a call with CS? And how much did you pay for it?

Snap, none of the new animals listed:(

The Lady on the phone said it's 5€ something,so basically like the Leopard :) Interesting that the Tiger is available in Europe,but not in the US as it seems?!

Called CS today and ordered a few Tigers :) thanks a lot for the heads up,i've had no idea that "unavailable Pieces"could be ordered via a call!

What 2017 will bring? The UCS Snowspeeder that was due to come out in 2016 and i guess another more than mediocre play-set or only the Snowspeeder! Ya´ll gotta keep your expectations pretty low after the disaster called 2016 :(

Well i´m also on the "what did you expect" side. My personal main concern is, that with the upcoming "rehased" DS 2016´s been a pretty lame year for SW-AFOLs, we´ve had a horrible receptioned Hoth set, and now a $500 DS which (besides updated Minifigures) will most likely look 1:1 like the old one. The UCS Snowspeeder has been pushed to ´17 so no "real" Display pieces this year for us, i guess that´s one of the major things why a lot of people are so dissapointed!

Loveletter to TLG: i know there´s a lot of stuff missing from the LOTR-range, but i just realized that after all i´m more than happy that this line was even produced! Think about it, not only do we (Tolkien-Fans) got our Heroes in Minifig-Form (ok, some are missing) but we also got some awesome "Fantasy/Medieval"Torso Prints, a range of Orcs that don´t look goofy and Elves Hair(with pointy ears) in different colours! So in all seriousness, thank you TLG for even touching the whole Tolkien license, i´ve really enjoyed to collect the Figures and i´m more than glad i was able to build Armies from several factions and even collect a lot of doubles that i can use the Heads/Torsos/Hair to create other Fantasy/Medieval figures! Of course it could have been better in the end with a final 3rd wave, but hey, at least we´ve got anything from LOTR the greatest Fantasy-Epos ever

I´m trying to hold my hopes on a low, but am i the only one who´s kinda surprised that the license will keep up for any longer? I thought the whole middle earth Theme is done and would vanish from the shelves completely during the next months?! But adding Lotr characters to a game and selling the minifigures means the license def.will keep on for at least a year (?)!
