| So yeah: Image says all. Actually, not. Huw from Brickset has a great description of all the upcoming sets: 9469, Gandalf Arrives: 2 minifigs: Gandalf and Frodo, Gandalf on horse and cart with fireworks and snake in the back. I think the price was £9.99. 9470, Shelob Attacks: 3 minifigs: Frodo, Samwise and Gollom! Gollum looked great, hunched over with movable arms, a bit like skeleton arms but different. Shelob the spider looks fantastic and scary! 9471, Uruk-Hai Army: 6 minifigs: Eomer, Rohan soldier and 4 Urak-Hai. The set consists of a small section of wall, a horse with moving legs and a small siege machine. The wall can be joined to the Helms Deep castle, apparently, so this will make a great battle pack to extend the castle and build your armies. 9472, Attack on Weathertop: 5 minifigs: Frodo, Merry, Aragorn and two Ringwaiths on horseback. The set builds a small section of Weathertop with spiral staircase and ruins at the top. 9473, The Mines of Moria: 7 minifigs: Pippin, Gimli, Legolas, Boromir, a cave troll and two Moria orcs. The set builds a selection of sub-assemblies for mine walls, doors, pedestals etc. 9474, The Battle of Helm's Deep: 8 minifigs: Gimli, King Theoden, Haldir, Aragorn and 4 Urak-Hai warriors. The castle itself is fairly substantial, complete with the 'side door' used to gain entry 9476, The Orc Forge: 5 orcs with a forge, various metalworking tools and weapons. Thats it for now | |

| BOOOO! Most of the torsos have flesh on them! NOOOOOO! At least we'll get new minifig parts.
Also, are there any images of the sets released? I'd love to see them.
Edit: Never mind, I found some "Confidential" images. I don't think the horse's legs move; it looks to me like the artist just made the legs shaped differently (like how minifig legs are often depicted bending slightly and at an angle to the body). Edit again: nevermind, I found another source (someone who actually saw the set) that said they could move. | |

That's lego's thing, every fig from a movie or other theme they didn't make has to be zombified. | |

| The main thing I want out of these are the minifigs. I'm gonna get as many orcs and Uruk-Hai as I can every chance I get. | |

Same. The minifigs aren't bad...ish. It's just that the ring is hulking huge, and should be a bangle than a ring. | |

Does anyone else think that Boromir looks like Theoden? That seems to be the opinion on Classic-Castle, and I agree. Yeah, I don't like the Boromir design... | |
