Deathleech Posted June 30, 2012 Posted June 30, 2012 I really like the tent idea for a battle pack. It makes perfect sense too. I can just see a whole camp full of them readying for battle. My only suggestion would be ditch the two named characters and place 2 more Rohan soldiers in their place. It's gonna be a pretty bad army builder if 2 of the 4 characters are named, specific people. This is the same complaint I have with the Uruk-Hai Army set, and really my only main complaint with that set. Quote
Professor Flitwick Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Wow! These are great, I can certainly see TLC making sets like these in the future! My only suggestion would be ditch the two named characters and place 2 more Rohan soldiers in their place. It's gonna be a pretty bad army builder if 2 of the 4 characters are named, specific people. This is the same complaint I have with the Uruk-Hai Army set, and really my only main complaint with that set. I agree, for two reasons. Firstly, there should be no named characters in a battle back. Secondly, didn't Hama die at the start of the Warg attack, whilst the people of Rohan were retreating to the Hornberg? Why not replace them with generic soldiers, and add a horse too? After all, it's what the people of Rohan were renowned for, and is also on their coat of arms. Quote

Gamling is now not named on the imagined back of this box , and Hama is replaced by a generic horseman. (He's to come with Hall of Edoras instead now) Thanks for the feedback!

Professor Flitwick Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 How about this? Perfect! I'll take ten! I look forward to your next entry. Quote
Flobnomdob Posted July 1, 2012 Author Posted July 1, 2012 Amon Hen set now added! Hoping for more feedback! Quote
puayyong Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 Amon Hen set now added! Hoping for more feedback! Seriously, I think it's a must buy for me for the nasgul and the witch king, and perhaps Balrog as well if LEGO ever made them. They should made another 1 scene... arwen vs the ring wraiths... at the river... that's also pretty epic. Quote
Jimbobulus Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 Some really cool ideas. Love Lurtz Keep them coming! Quote
Flobnomdob Posted July 27, 2012 Author Posted July 27, 2012 Wolfhead Attack set now added! Look out, Minas Tirith will come soon! Quote
friedchikenfairy Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 (edited) I love the all, but my favorite would have to be the Corsair one Edited July 27, 2012 by friedchikenfairy Quote
Leo604 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Rohan Battle Pack, Witch-King, and Amon Hen are probably my favourites. Quote
Danthebrick Posted July 29, 2012 Posted July 29, 2012 Fantastic concept designs - my favourites would be the Balrog and the Witch King. Quote
The_Chosen_1 Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 It would be amazing if even a few of these made it as sets! Those are some really spectacular ideas. Quote
Flobnomdob Posted July 31, 2012 Author Posted July 31, 2012 I don't think so, because I'd rather inspire the TLG designers than force it upon them, and I doubt these'll reach 10,000 supporters. If they don't then these ideas are doomed and TLG could feel obliged not to release anything that'd look like stealing my ideas. This is part of why I think CUUSOOing ideas like this could actually lessen the chances of sets being made. Quote
Lance Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 I'd love a Rohan battle pack, but knowing TLG they will make it 2 Rohan Soldiers and 2 Orcs. Either way I'd be totally fine with it Quote
Deathleech Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 I'd love a Rohan battle pack, but knowing TLG they will make it 2 Rohan Soldiers and 2 Orcs. Either way I'd be totally fine with it Probably. I like it most when they have army builders that only contain one type of troop as well. That way if you want say 20 Rohan Soldiers and 40 Mordor Orcs you can buy 5 Rohan army builder packs and 10 Mordor Orc ones and get your desired number. If they have 2 good, 2 bad guys then you are stuck with an even amount unless you go and eBay or Bricklink all the extras off and that can be a bit of pain. Quote
Flobnomdob Posted November 3, 2012 Author Posted November 3, 2012 Sorry to keep you waiting, but Orc Battle Pack now added! Quote
Teh Stud Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 Love the battle packs! Not a fan of more and more sets that include Gandolph, Frodo, Aragorn... I don't want 20 Frodos. (Especially with the stubby legs). Not a fan of the stubs that don't move. Quote
PsyKater Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 Hey, don't want to criticize your good work, but you should think about removing the official LEGO logo from your images. TLG does not want to see their Logo on custom made sets, to avoid confusion among their customers. And it is their right after all. Sorry, for this interception, let the discussion go on! Quote
bsmith13 Posted November 8, 2012 Posted November 8, 2012 I agree that a battle pack with Rohirrim is needed. The three existing Rohirrim look lonely on Helm's Deep. Quote
