The Brick Fan
“Overall, this final set in the initial Hobbit line is a good addition to any collection. You get an amazing 7 regular minifigures and the oversized Goblin King figure. Plus, all the minifigures are exclusive to the set except for Gandalf so you'll probably need this set to... More get all the Dwarves. The playset also has plenty of features that will keep kids entertained for a while.”

“This set surprised me a bit. I didn't think I'd like it as much as I do and I think the change in my attitude changed was due to seeing the Goblin Town scene in the Hobbit movie. The set has some flaws but overall is worth buying on discount after you've acquired the others... More from the line.”
