LEGO BrickHeadz Gandalf The Grey & Balrog (40631) The Lord of The Rings

Product Information

His hair has dimension, his cloak has dimension, and even his crown stands out proudly from his head. For pairings, it makes sense, and I also like that we get coronation versions of both characters, which we’ve not gotten before in LEGO sets, which give it a bit of a fresh take on both characters.

That’s not to say BrickHeadz characters are hard to build, but rather you might find something that could keep your interest.

But for example, I believe you can get more value here because you get more different colors and in never-before-released parts.

He has a dark green cloak, a gift from Galadriel of Lothlorien, built using effective use of slopes, giving it a believable silhouette. The fact Aragorn is featured in his royal clothes, it only makes sense for his set partner to be the Elven daughter of Elrond, Arwen.Melding LEGO and Technic in the most ingenious ways, the build is especially challenging but rewarding, especially when you see the functions in action!

The Balrog in particular was an absolute blast to build, and the completed model is terrifyingly large, and opens up possibilities of larger Brickheadz, which I hope to see soon. 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.We restrict the purchase limit available to a single household to ensure fairness for all of our fans. Normally, I get more excited about female BrickHeadz as I find that LEGO often puts a lot of interesting building techniques in women’s hairstyles.

When I heard the news from Promobricks of the possible revival of The Lord Of The Rings LEGO Theme, I was like: “One does not simply revive LEGO LOTR” and I thrilled if this turns out to be true. These Lord of the Rings gifts and toys, for kids aged 10+ and adults , are inspired by the mythical locations and iconic characters of Frodo™, Gandalf the Grey™ and Aragorn™. Gandalf the Grey’s broad-brim hat makes him stand out among the dozens of LEGO BrickHeadz characters. She does have a printed tile on her forehead to give her tiara some much-needed bling, but overall, this was a less-than-exciting character to build. LEGO has published the product listings for the upcoming LEGO Lord of the Rings BrickHeadz that are set to be released on Jaunary 1.

If anything Frodo should have been the scale of the Gollum model (3 x 3 stud head) and Gollum should have been on all fours, akin to the Pluto Brickheadz. The character is mainly portrayed in his Fellowship outfit, but for this set, he’s sporting his royal robes.

While I appreciate the effort to diversify the offerings of each set, I would probably put Sam, Frodo, And Bill (excellent pony by the way) together, then Merry, Pippin, and Boromir, and then either pairs of Aragorn with Gandalf and Gimli with Legolas, or just those four all together. The hilt is slightly more accurate to Sting, his Elven sword, but the shape of the blade is completely off. BrickHeadz has been particularly popular among adult fans of LEGO (AFOLs) and collectors due to their display-friendly nature, the wide range of characters, and the unique, recognizable style.Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item. I’ve now collected over a hundred LEGO BrickHeadz characters, and I don’t see myself stopping anytime soon. This Balrog Brickheadz is HUGE, thanks to its wingspan and height, and really nails the “flame and shadow” look. The LEGO BrickHeadz theme continues in 2023 and there will be three sets based on Lord of the Rings. Across the three main Lord of the Rings films, we meet many characters but it’s essentially the story of Frodo.
