About this deal

I really hope we continue to see more Lord of the Rings Brickheadz – it would be silly, if LEGO did not commit to eventually releasing the entire Fellowship in Brickheadz form. Frodo is acceptable, Gollum is much too simplified to be credible, but the box is pretty and that's the main thing for many collectors. Contact Us LEGO, the LEGO logo, the Minifigure, and the Brick and Knob configurations are trademarks of the LEGO Group of Companies. This Balrog Brickheadz is HUGE, thanks to its wingspan and height, and really nails the “flame and shadow” look.

Very true to the Brickheadz concept with some great custom prints and really nice shaping (especially on the beards). for 6 brickheads is too much, but hopefully if we support this wave of sets it sends a message that this theme is much missed. Aragorn’s journey from a mysterious ranger to the King of Gondor takes place across the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

These buildable display models make a great gift for The Lord of the Rings fans, LEGO builders and LEGO BrickHeadz collectors. I just love how comical it looks, and really interjects the Brickheadz’ design with some cutesy fun. That’s not to say BrickHeadz characters are hard to build, but rather you might find something that could keep your interest.

New: A brand-new, unused, unopened and undamaged item in original retail packaging (where packaging . A nice little addition to really bring the character to life is the printed tile for the front of his torso, which has Frodo’s brown vest, and the Elven leaf brooch which really ties the entire ensemble together. Hobbit figures that are exactly the same aside from a lock of hair here and there, just done in different colours and are identifiable through a different decorated 2x4 tile on the front.He has a dark green cloak, a gift from Galadriel of Lothlorien, built using effective use of slopes, giving it a believable silhouette. Brickset, the Brickset logo and all content not covered by The LEGO Group's copyright is, unless otherwise stated, ©1997-2024 Brickset ltd. There are many characters who could have joined Frodo, but he’s joined by the iconic character of Gollum. LEGO has published the product listings for the upcoming LEGO Lord of the Rings BrickHeadz that are set to be released on Jaunary 1.

The hilt is slightly more accurate to Sting, his Elven sword, but the shape of the blade is completely off. Yes, I use as reference the original torso design, redraw and adjust to match the scale for bricks 1x3 and tiles 2x4. The obvious answer is that the mould is no longer in service, and the element has been officially retired from production. And in his other hand, he’s wielding Glamdring, a legendary Elven sword that was forged and used by Turgon of Gondolin, which he found in The Hobbit. Gollum, at this stage was fully consumed by his lust and desire for the One Ring, and stalked the Fellowship in the hopes of reclaiming it.

Discover your next precious LEGO® BrickHeadz™ Lord of the Rings™ character figures, Arkenstone-level of amazing gifts and more. The character is mainly portrayed in his Fellowship outfit, but for this set, he’s sporting his royal robes. One is a symbol of a halfling warped by the ring’s influence, while the other is the hope that the halflings offer the world of Middle Earth. The wings and large horns really help to give it a unique look as well as resulting in the most visually imposing BrickHeadz character ever. It’s because it’s different as well as being the first time the character has appeared in LEGO form.

Obviously here they are taken from the equivalent existing torsos but you'd still need to make decals to get them looking good. The characters are featured prominently, and the colours are exactly what you’d think when Peter Jackson’s Lord of the Rings trilogy comes to mind.

Out of all 3, the best double pack is undoubtedly 40631 Gandalf and Balrog, with 2 superb designs included, that don’t feel like any compromises were made. Recreate iconic details of the wizard Gandalf the Grey and the flaming beast Balrog and display the buildable figures with pride.
