10225, just in time for Christmas!

You're gonna love building him! Have fun.

Got a few Christmas goodies from the parents

9515 The Malevolence

9526 Palpatines Arrest

not strictly bought by me, more my parents but that doesn't matter :P

9474 The Battle of Helms Deep

9473 The Mines of Moria

9476 The Orc Forge

9470 Shelob Attacks

bring my Lego LOTR collection nearer to completion (just need an Uruk Hai Army or two to complete the collection, then Hobbit is the next priority, however it's difficult because they were brought out now... by the time I could afford them, they'd be gone probably, but I'll probably pick up Riddles at some point!

Christmas was good to me (from the Mrs and mother). I'll let the picture speak for itself.

And a fun surprise for the halfling. She's obsessed with doctors.

Won 30151 Mining Dozer for $4.99 and a couple BL orders to finish off the year.

Unbelievable haul as always, TheLegoDr. But exactly how many themes do you collect? How do you find room and time for so many different themes?

Christmas was very good to me yesterday:

1. Riddles for the Ring

2. Uruk-hai Army

3. Attack of the Wargs

4. Attack on Weathertop

5. An Unexpected Gathering

6. The Mines of Moria

7. The Goblin King Battle

8. Lego Lord of the Rings videogame for xBox 360

My arms are exhausted ... 10 hours of building...

Five random silver series 9 bags.

1. Attack on Weathertop

2. Shelob Attacks.

Saved up enough to hopefully get Attack of the Wargs or maybe a City set.

Unbelievable haul as always, TheLegoDr. But exactly how many themes do you collect? How do you find room and time for so many different themes?

I collect way too many themes. I am considering dropping some, but it can be hard. I love LOTR/Hobbit so those are keepers. I love the winter village sets and the modulars, but otherwise city is a no buy for me. As for time, I have very little. I rarely find time to build. I can mostly just look at pieces on display. As for room, we have a huge basement essentially just for LEGO. Time/money are bigger issues than space.

Uruk Hai Army - at long last, nowhere in Edinburgh had it then out of the blue Toys R Us get it in! (reduced to £26.49 too so an excellent buy)

It's so hard saying no to themes, especially when you've previously been collecting them. I've told myself many(many, many....blah)times I wasn't going to get a theme when I initially saw photos, both Alien Conquest & Pharoahs Quest, but, of course I own them all.

After many weeks of no new sets......

I am so happy with today's purchase!

LEGO The Lord of the Rings video game (WII) with exclusive Elrond minifigure!

Received the Lego 3677 train yesterday and had it build in about an hour. Really nice train to complement my collection, but in terms of playability the 7939 trainset is better I think.

I picked up Hero Factory Surge & Ninjago Skull Truck. :)

Got the technic helicopter, 9396, for 59 euros.

It was really hard to leave two more of these to the shop I got this from..

I bought two copies of the Horizon Express.
