I really hope it’s the former.īecause they were so hard to track down, I got the smaller two sets from as I couldn’t risk waiting for the sets to appear widely in stores here in Australia. It makes me feel quite unsettled – either LEGO Australia didn’t bring enough into the country or the final wave of Hobbit sets are only meant to be released in a limited capacity. Personally, I’ve only seen a small handful at Myer Emporium, Toyworlds, briefly at David Jones and 3 of them are currently available on Big W’s online store. If you regularly frequent toy shops, you may have noticed a glaring lack of Hobbit sets on the shelves, which is really peculiar since you’d expect sets based on a major motion picture to be abundantly available to coincide with the movie’s premiere. One of the biggest mysteries in Australia this year has been the very limited availability of The Battle of the Five Armies sets.

The very first set that I picked up was the smallest – Witch-king Battle! Just be prepared if you’re a fan of the book – there are some points in the movie that will make your blood boil.Īnyway, let’s get back to LEGO! One of the themes that I religiously collect is the Lord of the Rings and I was obviously very excited by the newest Hobbit sets. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not a terrible movie – in fact you should go watch it.

I’ve been a fan of Tolkien’s works since I was 10 years old, so I particularly disliked the way he chose to conclude The Hobbit trilogy. I didn’t really like the movie – I felt that Peter Jackson did not do the book justice at all, and I was quite dumbfounded by the ‘creative’ liberties that the movie took. It was a bit of a bittersweet experience, since this would most likely be the final time we’ll get to experience the cinematic world of Middle Earth on the big screen. I caught the final film in Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit trilogy – The Battle of the Five Armies when it premiered in Australian cinemas on Boxing Day.
