“In the end, this set delivers a decent enough value as both a set and a parts pack. While a lot of the technic stuff takes up bulk in the set that may have been better used to extend out the platform in place for a battle, you can't argue with the parts you get. 113 parts... More isn't bad for what effectively is a wizard battle pack, and all of the pieces are generic enough to justify getting more than one of the sets, if for nothing else than to update your Magneto minifigs.”

“If you're a fan of the LOTR franchise, I recommend buying this set. It's cheap, and feels pretty substantial; it includes some key characters, one of which is new (and if you don't want to spend $200 on the Orthanc Tower set, it's the only place to get him); it has some... More FUNctions. I was happy with it, happy enough to include it among the choice LOTR sets that make my shelves.”

Recreate The Wizard Battle at The Tower of Orthanc, as Gandalf the Grey takes on his mentor and old friend, Saruman, who has fallen under the influence of Sauron while gazing into his palantir. Saruman will stop at nothing to deliver the One Ring to his new master and serve him by helping to conquer Middle-earth. Avoid the spinning palantir’s spell, cast powerful staff magic and send Saruman flying from his throne! Stay away from Sauron’s mesmerizing gaze or risk being enslaved yourself! Includes 2 minifigures with staffs: Gandalf the Grey and Saruman.
