Today we take a look at another Lord of the Rings set, a real one this time. <a href="http://amzn.to/RhxA3u" target="offsite">9476 The Orc Forge</a> is a Target and LEGO Store exclusive, but no matter, I have a copy so I decided to review it. Is this set worth adding to improve your arsenal? Read on to see!

Nice. I really like the looks of this set, but can't spare the $40. :\ Oh well, thanks for the review!

Looks like a pretty decent set. I'm not really into the LOTR sets, but I might get this one if it goes on sale.

Nice set, but I have to agree with the reviewer, playability is not much here. This is what I'd call just a "background set". No fighting, no fun. ^^ If only Treebeard was included... :P

 

Anyways, thanks for the review!

I agree that having some good guys to fight would've been nice. Especially if that good guy was Treebeard. :)

 

But this set is still cool. Thanks for the review!

I figured that the "waterwheel" was just an oddly shaped windmill. Also, I feel including Treebeard or someone would have raised the price another $5-10,

and I'm fine with single faction sets anyway.
