“Overall, the Lake-Town Guard polybag is a pretty nice set especially if you're trying to build a whole army of the Guards.”

“The finished model, consisting of a small catapult and weapons rack are pretty basic, and are definitely not made for display. The models themselves seem to have been included to justify the price of this polybag, and add some playability to an otherwise lonely minifigure.”

BrickEconomy Member Review
“The Lake-town Guard polybag from *The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug* includes a detailed minifigure with unique armor and silver-colored arms, perfect for customizing or adding to builds. The set also features a small, functional catapult and a stand with a bow, arrow, and quiver, adding play value. For its size, it offers a nice combination of accessories and a high-quality figure.”
