Uruk-Hai Army Reviews
“I really like this set. The builds are nice – the ballista is a bit unfinished but I quite like the Helm's Deep wall section. The play value is there too, which is also helped by the minifigures. The size of the models is a bit small for the price, but the inclusion of 6... More minifigures and a horse definitely make this set feel worth it.”

The Brothers Brick
“With six highly detailed minifigures, a bit of wall, and a ballista, this set is a great introduction to the Lord of the Rings line, even though it doesn't come with any members of the Fellowship. I'm sure a great many of you plan on buying the whole Lord of the Rings line... More no matter what I say, but if you want a larger orc army, this is a fantastic way to get it.”
