Rivendell had 3 of Lego’s top designers, including Mike P. working on it for over 2 years., it is a work of art. Barad Dur has just 1 regular designer and it shows look at the back of it compared to the $400 Disney Castle. My only issue with Rivendell is that almost all other builds I have done since seem like a letdown.

I hear you on that. There are some sets that *ruin* future builds for me, and it's why so many ratings are subjective. Having the Cafe Corner modular made me rethink how Lego works, but someone just getting into the modulars today wouldn't think much of that set.

The Rivendell team shouldve gotten to do Barad Dur instead of whomever got Barad Dur, they would've made something more detailed, pushed for additional figures like the Nine, and caught the proportions and interiors better. Could've been a 9/10 with ease instead of the strong 7/10 it is now.

It's bittersweet when you build a superb set since everything else seems anticlimactic. High points for me are the Parisian Restaurant, Lion Knight's Castle, Saturn V, Rivendell, the Steampunk Railway Station from Pantasy, and the dark grey 1:35 Tiger tank from Cobi. Those all raise the bar.

Good review/comparison! While I can appreciate the intellectual or factual criteria that you articulate, at the end of the day, if I'm going to spend a small fortune on a Lego set, it comes down to which one most resonates emotionally, and that would be Rivendell. From a distance, it looks like a painting come to life. It's probably the most beautiful thing Lego has produced, as much a work of art as a pricey toy. The fact that it honors the aesthetic of the movie source material and offers some really cool building experiences is just icing on the cake. Barad-Dur and Orthanc are distant seconds, and the latter selling for sky-high prices on the aftermarket really puts it totally out of any practical contention.

Barad-dur is the only one of the three I pulled the trigger on. Conceptionally, Sauron's tower is more interesting than the other two to me. I can appreciate the quality of both sets, but the subject-matter does not speak to me the way that Dark Lord's tower does. The height of it is very impressive as well. I don't think I've ever built anything in LEGO so tall before.

Me and my brother were really on edge of getting Rivendell, however when Barad dur was announced we showed up at the Lego Store June 1st and got it! Both sets are amazing and I’m hoping to get Rivendell sometime soon. Barad dur I think is a phenomenal set that blends the great interior and the outside. Lego sets have a habit of either focusing entirely on the building/vehicles and not having much for interior or figures to mess around (venetor) or the other way around (play sets in general). I love looking at the front of Barad dur and the back. The base of the set was so fun and detailed to build

It feels like Lego made some awesome sets, such as the Cantina, and then Rivendell, pumped that price point up for what are some truly fantastic sets, and then just sort of forgot their own standards save the price. Barad-Dur might be a nice Lego set, but it's not a "Hey we doubled the price of what it should actually cost because it's a work of art from a beloved property," it's a "Hey remember how you paid through the nose for Rivendell, well we made another set with a lot of pieces, so pay through the nose again because you fell for it last time." Barad-Dur and Jabba's Sail Barge are just expensive. They'll get people who buy expensive Lego sets, but they won't get all the people who decided to splash in and buy Rivendell because it was such a special thing, and that's probably a huge chunk of the people who bought Rivendell.

Lego exploited price per piece to the point that it is now useless, they cram in dozens of 1x1 tiles and other tiny pieces to increase piece count. 20 years ago price per piece meant something, not any more. We need a new metric to calculate value and I think it has to be be price per kilogramme, we need to go on weight to stop the tiny piece loophole Lego exploited to death.

I think this stat and PPP are only vaguely useful since value depends on so many subjective, personal factors. PPP only gets really interesting when you compare like-quality sets from other manufacturers and see things like $.03/part, which makes you wonder about Lego's crazy pricing and how the Lego community came to accept $.10/part as some acceptable baseline.

For me, I absolutely love Barad-Dûr. Once I can, I'm getting it. The only real issue I have with it, is the dark/light bluish grey, and the dark tan used for the rocky terrain and the bit wrapping around the tower of Barad-Dûr, instead of what would look a lot better, and fit much nicer, dark brown, like Mordor in the films. Most people would say Mordor is black, but no. Paying as much attention to the terrain of Mordor as the action, it's actually 2 different colors. A dark, ashey grey near the Black Gate, while the further in you go, and the closer to Barad-Dûr and Mount Doom you get, it becomes a lot more brown, and dirty, with a bit of orange highlights, especially near Mount Doom. The color of Mordor is the most obvious when Frodo and Sam disguise themselves as Orcs, and when hiking through Mordor to Mount Doom, especially when they're attacked by Sméagol/Gollum on the hills of the volcano in Return of the King. I would've loved it if Lego used dark and some lighter browns to recreate the true color of Mordor for the Dark Tower, Barad-Dûr. Otherwise it's a 10/10 for me.

Had 0 lego sets a month ago, now 8 :D Got myself 3 expensive sets cause i find the big ones have way more value and lasting appeal (detail, view enjoyance) then small sets. Rivendell was hardest, cause discount was only 75€ on 500€ but the exlusive nature (only on lego and amazon) and being by far the best LOTR set ever also) i had to buy it. Colosseum (i love sand lego tiles, so this one has me drooling :D) and harry potter (big) castle. While cool, i think the lasting appeal of the black will annoy me and still 500€ so i skip the towers. Eiffeltoren is also really nice in size, but the sometimes cheaper (bended) looking parts and the non stop grey (i hate grey so lasting appeal drops :D) make it harder. Also no 71043 set? That is big miss in my opinion for lego fan, especially with current 350€ isntead of 470€ price tag.

unpopular opinion: Orthanc is the best looking set for display. I think that the tower being a smaller tower and more simplistic in the movies is an advantage compared to Barad Dur. Barad Dur is cool but the tower itself is a bit too short compared to the base and some other details like the spires just look a bit off due to the sizing. And the entrance being sized to a minifig also makes it look a bit off because when you put minifigs in there they are too big compared to the tower. And again, Orthanc being smaller IRL is a benefit as it doesn't look as odd to have saruman on the balcony as it does having an orc in the entrance of barad dur. and being more simplistic there are less things that proportionally look weird. and for rivendell i can't really say anything except the fact that it's more of a doll house than a display piece. Again, it looks good but imagine having that on display in a living room. it would just look like a lego set while the tower of orthanc i think makes a great display piece on a shelf next to a flower or something.

I’m extremely disappointed with Legos take on Barad Dur. 3 major issues I have are the minifigures. Sauron should have been the avatar style minifigure and should have received his own custom mace weapon piece instead of a bulky built weapon that looks absolutely awful. Secondly, legos reuse of Frodo and Sam from Rivendell is clearly a cheap move on their part. All Lego had to do was reprint their torso piece and their face to make them look weary and worn out from their travels all across Middle Earth. Finally, the fact we didn’t get an Isildur minifigure is an absolute joke. In Rivendell, Lego included Isildur and Sauron in a sticker print showing Isildur cutting off the ring. Barad Dur was the perfect opportunity and possibly the only opportunity to get my most desired minifigure and yet Lego was too incompetent or lazy to include him. At a price tag of $460, at the least I expected Frodo and Sam to be new versions exclusive to this set, and at the most, I would have loved to see Isildur, but no, Lego (like always) seems to cheap out as much as possible.
