Unexpected Gathering

In the past week:

79014 Dol Guldur Battle x 2

79008 Pirate Ship Ambush

31026 Creator Bike Shop & Café

60036 Arctic Base Camp

75052 Mos Eisley Cantina x 5

70404 King's Castle

75030 MicroFighters Millennium Falcon

30246 Imperial Shuttle Polybag

8028 Mini TIE-Fighter Polybag (which is apparently from 2008)

60059 Logging Truck

Kind of all over the place, but I have quite a few ideas that I want to build, most of them in the Historical section. Plus, I came into some money (who knew the run-up to getting married would be a lucrative proposition?!), and splurged just a tad.

9471 Uruk-Hai Army x3 (one in a shop on holiday and two extra second hand, but still sealed)

9769 Gandalf Arrives (the only LOTR set I didn't have yet, from the same shop on holiday)

30215 Legolas Polybag (the only polybag I found in my country, Belgium, is alas Legolas. Still hoping to find Uruks or Lake Town guards somewhere)

Bricklink order: 8 Uruks, 6 Moria Goblins, some gold pieces for a future Erebor MOC and some nicely colored tree leaves.

I picked up my third Wizard Battle. I keep thinking that Saruman's hair / beard would make an excellent druid to fight my Romans. Of course, that is what I thought when I bought the second set too.

Haha, congrats! Yeah, Sarumans hair sounds like a great idea...I must buy DGB soon...

I've just been buying things off of bricklink these days; some pieces for building castles, some red lion knights from Kingdoms and the mast from the Sea Serpent.

...For me Orthanc...

I just finished the tower. I really enjoyed building it but afterwards i realized that might be the last LOTR set i have ever built and that made me sad.

I got The Goblin King Battle for roughly 55 % off. I never really liked the set and always considered it to be among the very weakest of the LOTR/Hobbit line, but at that price I just couldn't resist. I hope to be able to sell the figures and get a fair share of the price back that way.

I also got the LEGO Game Minotaurus at about 1/5 of the ordinary price. Not really interested in the board game per se, but the baseplate alone is worth more than that.

Finally bought Mirkwood Elf Army. Good set for army building.

79005 The Wizard Battle...just for the EYE

79005 The Wizard Battle...just for the EYE

Yeah I too got that one a few weeks ago, mostly for the eye and Saruman's hair/beard. Some nice molds, those are!

79005 The Wizard Battle...just for the EYE

me too ^^. And a pick brick from lego

I bought the last set from the 2nd Hobbit wave I didn't own yet: Dol Guldur Ambush. It looks nice when attached to the great DGB set, it's a nice display.

And I bought a cow. Couse I always wanted a cow for my MOCs.

Sweet haul, congrats!

I'm still hunting for Shipwreck Hideout myself. I was veeery close to getting it for cheap about a year ago, but someone *just* beat me to it... it's the only one (apart from the Imperial Flagship, which I'll sadly never get) I still miss from Pirates 2009.
