I wonder if they’d do just the council scene in minifig scale with the rest of Rivendell as a microscale forced-perspective backdrop. That way they could fit in the minifigures and some finer architectural details in the foreground, while still having the set feel like a relatively complete structure.

1) 65092 would work very well as an ornament, especially if recolored as a new pearl or satin red color. 2) Agreed that a nano fig with wings would be very cool. The Holiday Main Street tree uses a wand in trans-yellow as the star, and it works well, but does require building the tree to hide the long bar.

There’s a great post in this forum that I’ve used to make custom sails. They can go through the printer, but color wasn’t that vibrant when I tried. Might try transfer sheets next time.

It'd be just like King Leo, Queen Leonora, and Princess Storm!

I was one of the ones who said it didn’t. That was a mistake because I was looking at the total ($150 and change), rather than the subtotal (which was under the threshold).

It seems standard pieces don’t count. I had $152 ($24 standard PaB) in my cart; didn’t qualify. Added a $30 set and got the hideout. EDIT: it was late and I was looking at the price with tax. Standard parts DO count.

It says Bricks and Pieces orders do not qualify, but Pick a Brick should, right?

If they ever do another Raya set, it'd be nice to use the new mold for Namaari's serlot. She's supposed to ride the cat, so it was rather disappointing that the existing set used the housecat mold.

Brown bricks from the past couple of years should be ok. The problem was something with the color mix for several years after switching to reddish brown.

This occurred long after they went out of stock. Maybe I'll get an extra set from BrickLink some time.

That's a common problem with reddish brown and dark red pieces from that time period. I've lost many pieces the same way, including the kings printed legs :(

An intimacy coordinator would be required even for just a kiss. It's a bit of a leap to say the show is going full Game of Thrones without more info. And it's worth mentioning that there's nudity in Tolkien's work: the Hobbits running naked over the barrows, and Nienor fleeing naked from Glaurung off the top of my head. In the movies, Gandalf was naked after he was sent back to Middle Earth. It's possible to have nudity without being as explicit as GoT.

I love the white/gold armor combo.

My personal suspicion is that it was actually an in-house version of Star Wars. I base this purely on my experience of building Clay’s Falcon Fighter Blaster: a starfighter that dramatically switches its wings into attack position, piloted by a knight with powers and a laser sword, and copiloted by his trusty droid sidekick.
