Sauron holding the ring fits our current timeline.

I am a huge LOTR fan & I was so excited to buy this that I waited for midnight the night it dropped & bought it. Attempting to build this set was honestly the most frustrating experience I've ever had with a Lego set. The build took way longer than it should have because pieces would fall off while trying to put others on & I would have to go back like 10 steps to retrace my steps to fix it. It kept falling off the base while trying to snap the pieces on as I got closer to the end. I was getting so annoyed I just wanted to quit building it but I pushed on. But with that said it does look cool when it's done & I love that it came with the Sauron mini figure & 4 gold rings. I bought a wall mount & hung it up. Overall I'm happy w the finish build & I would recommend it but you're gonna need a lot of patience.

Item arrived and the box had been crushed

I bought this set for my grandson on his birthday and he was so excited! he had a blast building this set, and built it under an hour. great for intermediate builders and collecters. 5 stars!

I was waiting for this to come out ever since I first saw it and I bought it as soon as it was available for pre-order. Best decision I ever made! The detail put into this helmet makes it seem like it was just copy and pasted from the movie straight into Lego form. It looks so good on my desk right across from the Barad-Dur set and I could not be happier. Highly recommend for any fan of the Lego helmets and TLOTR nerds like me

As a Lord of the Rings fan, I really enjoyed building the Sauron Helmet. The shaping, details, and overall appearance are excellent, and it looks great from every angle. My only disappointment is the final display height. Once completed, the helmet feels shorter than expected, especially for a character as imposing as Sauron. The proportions of the helmet itself are fantastic, but the display stand could have been taller to better showcase the model. I actually found myself wanting additional pieces to increase the display height because the design deserves a stronger presence on a shelf. A slightly taller base or optional display extension would have made this one of the best LEGO display pieces in the Lord of the Rings collection. Overall, a great set with outstanding detail and an enjoyable build experience.

I have always loved the LOTR universe, so I was excited to get this set. It was fun to build and looks great on display. A few things could have been better: - The build could have been more detailed and complex. - The miniature Sauron figure should have had a plastic helmet instead of silicone or rubber. - The set could easily have been expanded to around 600 pieces for a better build experience. Overall, it is still a great collector's piece and a nice addition for any LOTR fan.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Absolutely amazing! It's cool,detailed, and has a great design. It's impressive; this LEGO is an eye-catcher. LEGO has great durable quality and is easy to assemble. It is said to be for adults and ages 18 years old and up,but my 7-and 9-year Olds assembled it,and they had fun.This is a great gift.

Awesome lego set

Love this. Hope there is more Lord of the Ring helmets to follow.
