wesker Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 (edited) Here's Bolg and a couple others from the Lake-Town level of the game. Will be interesting to see which characters will be included in the set. Edited April 7, 2014 by wesker Quote
Lord Vladivus Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 I like Bolg. Other than his mouth/chin... Quote
BrickBob Studpants Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 I like Bolg. Other than his mouth/chin... I agree. The movie version does have a dark-toned chin, but it's not subtle enough on the minifig I wonder what the fig would look like without that... Alfrid looks good too, Bain on the other hand is rather plain Quote
Floundie Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Bain looks like crap. There's no way they'd put that in a set. I hope. Quote
azog15 Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 I hope Bolg looks better as an actual minifig. Quote
Gibbon Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 This Bolg minifig still looks awful to me. They need to change it's head as the body should be OK with a much better head piece. I hate these orc minifigs without ears as they seem unfinished like that. Bolg's mouth is strange too as it seems like someone vomiting his blood... Quote
wesker Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Bard and Galadriel are the two standouts for me. The Witch-King and Tauriel are both fairly decent too. Everyone else though looks horrible. Really hope we won't be seeing these designs for Bolg and Bain in the actual sets. Quote

Bain needs, Luke skywalker hair in brown. Quote
Floundie Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Bain needs, Luke skywalker hair in brown. I agree with you completely. After looking at Bolg for a while, I think these are the things that make him unappealing to me. - The red chin is too jarring. If it's necessary to have it, I'd definitely make it dark tan so it blends better with the skin. - He's missing the parched lips from the film; just some tan lines above the mouth would look great. - His eyes need to be spaced further apart - His right eye sorely needs a black pupil - His helmet is too big. in the film it looks like part of his head, here it sticks out too much. - Not sure if he needs eyebrows I'm positive Bolg would greatly benefit from a molded head piece, that way you can get the misshaped head, a proper printed helmet, and hair printing like Gollum. Another idea is to give him long arms like Woody. In the film I kept thinking how long they looked compared to his legs. Might be a bad idea but that's what I think. Quote
Smeagol314 Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 There are some pictures of Elrond! Although, I don't know if these are the ones that would be in a set... Quote
deskp Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 (edited) There are some pictures of Elrond! Although, I don't know if these are the ones that would be in a set... Purple one is Lindir We get gold armored Elrond in the set, His new armor is the goden 2.age looking armor with a new chest piece and a green cape. ___ Edited April 8, 2014 by deskp Quote
Blazej_Holen Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 I thought that Elrond will be in his red armour like in AUJ. Why holden? We already have him in golden armour...

He should have silver one ... Quote
Robert_88 Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 The Bain and Bolg minifigures must be a joke. :/ I guess Galadriel will get the Elrond hairpiece if she doesn't get a totally new one. The missing crown will probably be a bigger problem for kids than the knots in her hair. But I hope she will get a new hairpiece. Quote
deskp Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 (edited) I thought that Elrond will be in his red armour like in AUJ. Why holden? We already have him in golden armour... For movie accuray I'd think. I assume the red armor does not stand out that well in DOl guldur, and it perhaps looks a little evil.. I think this new configuration looks very good, Just imagine it's in lego's vibrant gold and not that dull videogame gold. And we should assume it comes with a olive green(?) cape.

BrickBob Studpants Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 Is it just me or did all of the dwarves sport the same Lake-town outfit in the videogame? I can't back this up since the video has been removed but I think they all had the same purple torso with the silver armour plates I guess that means we're going to get the Bo5A versions in the Erebor set instead of the Lake-town ones Quote

Armored dwarves + bilbo with or without mithril in Erebor set. Dain + hopefully soldiers of all factions in the "bo5a" set. Quote

I like more Elronds red armour rather than this, but anyway, I will be glad to have him, cause I still miss the original one from polybag..And I am not going to spent those riddiculous amount of money to get him :) Quote
Floundie Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 Too bad lake town Thorin doesn't seem to be in the game. I mean this version, the brown robe and blue/red undershirts. That would make a great fig. I was hoping we'd get that in Erebor. Quote

I was hoping we'd get that in Erebor. It's the absence of that that leds us to believe we'll get armored versions in Erebor set. Don't you agree that we're better of getting armored versions? Quote
kevkipo Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 (edited) I find both versions good :) and i believe that we won't see a whole set of purple dwarves :P that would make some boring figs dont you think? I just think that it will be or BO5A Thorin (and group) or LT Thorin (and group) , Secretly i hope for LT Thorin, But maybe that's just because i saw him in Action already :) Edited April 8, 2014 by kevkipo Quote
deskp Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 Looks nice, but that crown on smaug irks me bleh bleh. Quote
Floundie Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 (edited) Armored versions would definitely be a lot cooler. I wish we could get both though. But I'm going to go for armored because i'm looking forward to MOCing BOFA. Everytime I think about that I'm bummed we aren't getting a $30 Dwarf army builder.. I can hardly see myself buying multiples of an $85 BOFA set with two or three iron hill dwarves at most each. Smaug looks great but I'm worried about those black horns. I'm going to get my game today, would anyone like me to take pics of Bilbo? Edited April 8, 2014 by Floundie Quote
TheLegoDr Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 Out of that picture, I want those little bunnies . I want the Bilbo figure, but I won't have time for the game. I guess I could ask if they have any they can give away (or) I can slip some money under the table... Quote

Do you mean the black spikes on his back? There are plenty around already, so speaking formyself I don't need it. But It's a good bonus to see more pictures. Edited April 8, 2014 by deskp Quote
Ridge Montante Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 Am I the only one that would like some of those rabbits? Quote
