Product Information

I think much the same can also be said for some of the head prints. The original Legolas face may have been somewhat stylised but it worked and the use of several generic faces in this set feels like a cop-out. I understand that the old prints were out of production and they probably shaved a little off the costs by incorporating some parts already in production but it definitely feels like a missed opportunity. The columns appear fragile, although some are surreptitiously reinforced using 1x1 round plates with bars, which connect them to the walls. A dark blue banner hangs behind the columns and resembles several from the films, featuring silver stars. Perhaps a couple more could have been included to balance the interior. Ranger of the North, Aragorn is framed in an unadorned silver leafed 5x7” wood oval frame. A King in waiting, Aragorn is the heir of Isildur and rightful claimant to the thrones of Arnor and Gondor.

I think printing this circlet is actually more successful than using a dedicated hair component, as the minifigure from 79006 The Council of Elrond does. However, exactly the same rubbery piece appears on Arwen and such repetition between the Elves is noticeable. A couple of alternatives should definitely have been produced for these minifigures, replicating Arwen's wavy hairstyle.The art shown is a print that has been shrunk down to fit an 11x14” silver frame with a decorative profile. The original Nine were hand cut, and fit on 16x24”. The leader of the Nazgul in his ghost like form, is shown in a silver 5x7” poly stone frame with a swirl pattern. Featured in an ornate gold frame, as he forged the One Ring to rule them all. 5x7” wood oval with hand gold leafing and hand rubbed for an antiqued look. The Oldest of Ents is shown in a rustic wood frame. Treebeard is 5x7” and the outermost measurements of the real wood rectangular frame are 8 1/2x 10 1/2”.

Overall, I’m very impressed and I’m sure that I will scrape together the cash to buy this (at some point…). Official images have demonstrated that the Council of Elrond can be displayed separately from Rivendell, presumably for anyone seeking a smaller The Lord of the Rings display. Options are always welcome and the model does look impressive alone, but I am not convinced this feature was truly necessary. Rivendell appears decidedly peculiar without its focal location, after all.While perhaps unnecessary, the courtyard and accompanying tree are designed to be detached if you wish, revealing a simple frame and Sauron's sinister eye beneath! This is a fun reference to Frodo's painful vision when Gimli attempts to smash the One Ring, although there was ample space to include some flames or further detail surrounding the eye.
