July 22, 201410 yr Actually, TLG have already begun revealing new sets, they've just unleashed pictures of a new Star Wars set via MTV So we might get to see the Hobbit set quite soon as well

Also the LEGO Movie Super Cycle Chase. So we should expect something from them! -Sci
July 23, 201410 yr Hobbit fan sites are reporting that lego, and lego mocs are thus far the best showings at sdcc

July 23, 201410 yr Word on the street is we will indeed be seeing 1 new Hobbit set at SDCC I would expect a picture and press release soonish.
July 23, 201410 yr As long as he doesn't take another characters spot, I'd be fine with that The only realistic option for him to appear is the Bo5A set, and that one is sure to be very crowded. Dain II is already confirmed, and it's the only chance we have of getting Ironhill dwarves and Mirkwood soldiers. Since it's a battle set, we also need a couple of orcs, claiming additional spots in the roster. That leaves little opportunity for further minifigs, so I'm not sure whether we should expect Thranduil to make another appearance (especially since this version would require a new mould)
July 23, 201410 yr I don't think a new mold would be necessary. If Galadriel is going to reuse Elrond's hairpiece the same would likely be done for Thranduil.

July 23, 201410 yr So, out of interest, if we're seeing one set (hopefully) in the next few days, when can we expect to see images (etc) of the other three sets?

July 23, 201410 yr The official press release cites an October release date (here's a link in case you've missed it: http://finance.yahoo.com/news/lego-systems-unveils-products-experiences-132900634.html ), so the sets should be revealed late August/ early September

I want to know NOW!! :3
July 23, 201410 yr Does anyone else think that Thranduil's war elk looks an awful lot like a lama?...
July 23, 201410 yr So is it tomorrow supposedly when the set will be revealed? Brotherhood workshop said something along those lines did he not? I hope to god this weekend we see erebor set and SMAUG!!!
July 23, 201410 yr well the bard giveaway is thursday, so it makes sense to reveal the set then aswell.

July 23, 201410 yr Smaug looks amazing (), but $130 for 800 pieces? And I wish it were actual Ererbor, or at least a facade. Eh, I'll still get it. Edited July 23, 201410 yr by K-Nut
