Lake-town Chase Reviews
Is this LEGO set a good investment?
“While Lake-town Chase has been slightly underperforming yearly growth when compared to other sets in The Hobbit, at an average annual growth rate of around 8%, this set is still a decent investment for most LEGO collector portfolios.”

The Brothers Brick
“Lake-town Chase doesn't seem to contain a lot of chase, though it does contain a nice bit of Lake-town. It's a solid set; the buildings are well-built and looking nice, and the ship is great. There's not much in the way of unique or new elements, aside from the arches, but... More the vast majority of the pieces are brown or dark brown, with plenty of log bricks, so if you want to stock up on brown, this is a good way to do it.”
