April 12, 201311 yr I picked up yet another Orc Forge at Target today. Which brings my current LotR standings to: Helm's Deep (x2), Mines of Moria (x1), Weathertop (x2), Orc Forge (x3), Uruk-hai Army (x6), Shelob Attacks (x1), Gandalf Arrives (x2).
April 21, 201311 yr I bought my first Kingdoms Joust set (and thus my first modern Falcon Knight) 2 weeks ago (I forgot to post it here then, so I'm sorry about that). I really enjoyed the build, and I think the finished build looks beautiful to me, so I plan to buy another one to connect to the back of the main building (so it would no longer be a facade), in a few months time.
April 21, 201311 yr One 6030 Catapult One 6040 Blacksmith Shop One 6055 Prisoner Convoy One 6012 Siege Cart One 6023 Maiden's Cart One 6041 Armor Shop (with Black Falcon flag instead of the Crusader one but the rest is as it should be) One 6017 King's Oarsmen One 6035 Castle Guard One 6039 Twin Arm Launcher
April 21, 201311 yr Added another four sets to my Kingdoms collection: 7947 Prison Tower Rescue 7948 Outpost Attack 7955 Wizard 30062 Target Practice Plus extra figures, horses and weapons from Bricklink.
April 24, 201311 yr Bought a small job lot of lego on ebay recently, and delighted to find that it contained a nearly complete 6067 Guarded Inn, and most of 6066 Camouflaged Outpost
April 27, 201311 yr Managed to pick up a local buy... Out someone's garage 7946 Kings Castle with box 6090 Royal Kings Castle with box 7894 Airport with box 4748 Alpha Team 6270 Pirates Forbidden Island with box 7133 Bounty Hunter Pursuit 7257 Ultimate Lightsabre Duel For about 200. I doubt I'll keep anything besides the castle sets but didn't feel like leaving it in a garage. Also picked up a Goblin King Battle off eBay for 47.00 shipped.
May 31, 201311 yr A few minor things: - A nice employee girl in a Lego store sold me a big PAB-cup for the price of a small one. Apparently, they wanted to clear some of the shelves. Got a full load of reddish brown 2x2 and 2x4 plates. - Got a Tauriel and a Rohan soldier off ebay for 9 Euro. In Germany, that is a very good deal.
May 31, 201311 yr 79000 - Riddles for the Ring 79005 - Wizard Battle 79006 - Council of Elrond 79007 - Battle at the Black Gate.
May 31, 201311 yr Weathertop. Now all I need s the Orc forge to finish off the first wave, but I don't know if that's going to happen.
May 31, 201311 yr I got Wizard Battle at the TRU mark up. I am waiting until probably Thursday of next week to do a big LEGO Store purchase for more of the new wave LotR. I am waiting for a Bricklink order of shields, swords, and heads while contemplating declaring for a guild in Historica.
May 31, 201311 yr Just finished the first wave of LOTR. I recently finished Helm's Deep and I am truly blown away! It was quite stunning, and I applaud Lego for their design of such an iconic scene. All of the sets go so nicely together, especially when displayed.
June 3, 201311 yr 79005 - The wizard battle 79006 - The council of Elrond 75022 - Mandalorian speeder 8293 - Power functions motor set Now I'll have to wait untill they arrive. I guess that will be tomorrow.
June 4, 201311 yr Look what the postman brought me today! In case you were wondering: I got this from a kind person who was able to get this set early, through legal means My apologies for the shockingly bad photo's, BTW! Our cat was also taken by the set: here he is pretending to be part of the mountains in the background! Edited June 4, 201311 yr by Alldarker
June 4, 201311 yr That's some great cat-mouflage and looking forward to seeing what you think about the set.
June 4, 201311 yr @ Alldarker, nice set. looks like it will be a blast to build. i just acquired a bulk lot from someone which consisted of the kings castle set# 6080 and set #6041 armor shop. unfortunately no instructions. still nice to have that one and the kingdoms one together.
June 5, 201311 yr Just ordered 79005 (Wizard Battle) and 79006 (Council of Elrond) from Amazon. I won't have time to build them for a while, because I'm going on a long trip, but I didn't want to take even the SLIGHTEST chance of missing them.
June 5, 201311 yr Look what the postman brought me today! I am so ridiculously jealous of you right now, that box is massive!
June 5, 201311 yr Despite a comment from my wife about having enough LEGOs already, we went to the mall today and I got the Council of Elrond and the Battle at the Black Gate from the LEGO store. They threw in the Jor El minifig. I don't know if I will open that or resell it. Instead of Russell Crow, it reminds me of my best friend. I could use him in a MOC. I will wait on the Corsair ship until an Amazon sale.
June 6, 201311 yr I bought Wizard battle for the Saruman Minifig and went on ebay to acquire Gandalf the White for 17.99 oh well!
