Lego this year decided to discontinue the Kingdoms line with only a single exclusive release of a large jousting set. In its place they have the licensed Lord of the Rings series which is starting this summer with seven releases ranging in price from 12.99 to like 129.99. Lots of the new minifigures and printed elements along. From Bricks to Bothans has posted tons of images of the new Lord of the Ring Lego sets taken at the NY Toy Fair:
Orc Forge: Probably a Pass
Battle of Helms Deep: Playset version of Fortress. Should be bigger.
Mines of Moria: Balin's Tomb
Attack on Weathertop: Ring Wraiths
Uruk-hai Army: Add on Battle Pack for Helms Deep Set.
Shelob Attacks: Only Set with Ghollum
Gandalf Arrives: Might be only set with Gandalf.
We managed to get all 4 sets from last years Kingdom line on sale but we will see how many of these force me to take out my wallet.
