Hopefully we'll get more photos of the summer wave sets at Nuremberg toy fair (I think it's the 30th)

I hope so too, but last year we only got 1 picture of the lotr sets and it was at a bad angle, and the image was too small to do any zooming on...

Hopefully someone buys a good camera :classic: (it would also help if they can actually take pictures too). Hopefully there's also some other licensed sets going to be there on display. There's always the toyfair in America coming in February if all else fails.

That's when we'll get the best pics anyways. FBTB always get very thorough pictures of practically all the major themes. They did amazing coverage of LOTR last year, so I have a strong feeling they'll get all the pics we desire this year.

I think last years picture was approved and edited by LEGO in some way.

Hmm hard to write something that has not been said but I'll try:

- the white hairpiece will make a good female one if you cut off the beard, then you can have a female elf with white hair

- the dead soldiers' legs look interesting, I wish I could get a better look. Maybe some new kind of living solider can be made with these legs. I wonder what torso to combine with these olive green legs.

I am going to buy the council and bricklink the sand green capes. And of course eagles if there will be any. Although it is weird that giant eagles are bigger than griffins.

All of the sets look great, can't wait to see something official, like a picture, of Orthanc.

Anyway, I got a bit of a laugh seeing the Corsair with a flickfire missile in the picture. Lego just can't help themselves with those.

Hmm, I find it odd that the orcs on the Battle At The Black Gates have helmets, while on the poster they're bald.

Anyone know why this is? Has something similar happened before?

Many times when we are dealing with preliminary photos. Sometimes the Minifigs are just placeholders for mocked up boxes.

Does anyone think that the glowing white figures on the prelim that represent the Dead Men of Dunharrow means that the arms and heads of those figs, along with some of their torso prints, will be glow in the dark? That would be really cool!

I would concur that it looks like multiple parts of the Dead Men will glow in the dark. Should be interesting to see the finished box art to be sure,

The picture you linked is how he looks in the hobbit, his robes are red in the council in lotr. LOTR elrond: http://www.very-faer...ond_Council.jpg

The minifigure we get looks exactly the same as in the game every print and every color.

ONLY the cape's color is different from game.

Oh I see, my mistake. It seems the cape makes the torso appear to be a lighter colour, so that's what confused me. :wacko:

(Arghhh, wrong again! *Hits head repeatedly*)

It seems we're getting trans-yellow crystal balls and a special staff for Saruman in 79005 :laugh:

I think the crystal balls will still be clear but with a trans yellow head in them or something and as for Saruman's staff, it looks to be the same design as the one in the game :classic:

Check out http://www.lordofthebrick.com/ for another riddle that leads to a new prelim pic, this time showing a close-up of all four sets :sweet:

Do you have the URL for that picture because I can't seem to answer the riddle on my ipad (is the answer the dragon on the map)
