yannick29 Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 Hello, It is nice thanks. But what is the relation between the Tower and Smaug ? I have read the books some time ago but I don't think Smaug did meet the Tower in the stories. Quote

I have read the books some time ago but I don't think Smaug did meet the Tower in the stories. pretty sure they dont cross paths but i havent seen the last movie. it does look nice scale wise though.

It has as much relation to ToO as Black Gate, yet everyone keeps saying you MUST have a black gate with your ToO. 1 Quote
inversion Posted March 6, 2015 Posted March 6, 2015 It has as much relation to ToO as Black Gate, yet everyone keeps saying you MUST have a black gate with your ToO. You have to because of Gandalf the White! Playing the Grima scene without the included Grey kind of doesn't make sense. Quote
bricksnstocks Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 Thank you Greg for posting it on the thread. Thanks for the feedback... glad everyone enjoyed the photo. I can't say enough for how great the set looks once built. Locutus we did just that- the rest of the pieces to The Lonely Mountain are in the kid's "general pieces" bucket. Trek... books are our other obsession! After looking at that picture, the cost of my plan to build one just went from $199.99 to $329.98...must sell more to make $$$ for this. 1 Quote
Frank Brickowski Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 Does anyone know how many TsoO are in an original LEGO shipping box? 2 or 3? thx Quote

GhostDad Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 Two per case is pretty standard for sets like this one, in 24 x 20 x 4 boxes. Quote
fossilrock Posted March 11, 2015 Posted March 11, 2015 I bought two a while back from lego.com and got a box that was approximately 28x20x6.5. Dont know if that helps. Quote
litlnev Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 ToO went OOS within the first 45 mins of 2x vip points. I get the feeling the next 2 weeks are going to be real tough on this set... Quote
waddamon Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 I expect this is the end of it, we'll see. Quote
Guest TabbyBoy Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 You can currently order 5x in the UK. I already have 3 with the original poster and I'm stopping at 3. Quote
Tpkuk Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Just received one from EU LEGO Shop at Home - seal 06S5 1 Quote
cissi Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Just received one from EU LEGO Shop at Home - seal 06S5 I heard heart breaking sound... Quote
waddamon Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Sorry you folks are not our market. I am pretty much only concerned with th US market. Quote
fantomas007 Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Just received one from EU LEGO Shop at Home - seal 06S5 Really? This is very interesting information, which can mean that this set will live longer than expected... Quote
mudcatsfan Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Really? This is very interesting information, which can mean that this set will live longer than expected... It also appeared a month ago in the US with 05R5 dates, so we've known for a while that a new run has hit stores. This just confirms there was a new run in Europe as well. Quote
Wazzapova Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 I thought this one was almost EOL oh well. Quote
jaylay Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Got my one today from LEGO Shop at Home. 50R4 seals but the top flap seals have been opened and resealed again right over the original seals. Is this a common sight? For what reason? Quote
exciter1 Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Just received one from EU S@H - seal 06S5 Yeah! Another 6 months of Winter. Quote
bricketycricket Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 New seal codes doesn't necessarily mean it isn't retiring. I got a GE with brand new seal codes last September just before it vanished for good. There will always be a "last batch" made at some point for any set. Quote
GhostDad Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Yes it's a common sight. I wouldn't worry about it. Quote
biniou Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 (edited) I thought this one was almost EOL oh well.It can be.Recent seals mean nothing. Only old seals give us some clues about production. See the seals of the HH. Some of my HH have seals 38S4 and the set was sold out everywhere on week 43. edit: oops it's about the same post bricketycricket did 4 minutes ago when I translated my words --' Edited March 14, 2015 by biniou Quote
meowsmeowsmeows Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Got my one today from LEGO Shop at Home. 50R4 seals but the top flap seals have been opened and resealed again right over the original seals. Is this a common sight? For what reason? Yes, it's common. I had it on one of my sets and there are others that mentioned it earlier in the thread. Perhaps having to do with Lego thinking they forgot a bag in the 3xR4 packaging edition. I'm building my 50R4 set now and haven't found anything missing except a 3x2 brown brick that was meant for the Ent. Quote
bricketycricket Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 It makes me chuckle to see people worrying that ToO has new seals, might not be retiring soon, etc. Of all the sets you could worry about buying too early, buying a ToO in 2015 is not one of them. 5 Quote
