You missed that Orthanc comes with an eagle and a brick built Ent

Maybe they just wanted to compare the towers

@@HCKRBRO Not quite. he also compared the figures. The eagle and the Ent are actually relevant to the Orthanc set as they are to movie scenes involving that tower

@JG_512 3 ай бұрын

Big miss on the comparison there. Ent and eagle add a lot of value to the set

It also comes with an Mordor Orc instead of a Gundabad Orc from the Hobbit Series

Feels odd that you skipped the presence of an eagle and Treebeard from Orthanc, i feel that is super important to both the figures and the play features comparisons

Yeah! He's a custom fig. The actual fig's worth was greater than the value of the whole Shire.

I mean as far as movie scale goes, I for one was disappointed it wasn't actually 4,500 ft tall containing 8.8 billion Lego pieces with 56.8 million bags to work through. Shame..

Barad-Dur is a really cool set with a lot of awesome details!

@JuliendeGreling 3 ай бұрын

Love the teaser at the end. I also just ordered my copy of barad dur. I have a question: Would it be really expensive to just buy the pieces to build the exterior of orthanc. None of the figs or special pronts should make it cheaper no?

@BrickoftheRings 3 ай бұрын

That's a great question and i'll cover it in an upcoming video. I was able to buy all the parts for Orthanc (No minifigs, treebeard, or special parts) for a little over $200

Man seeing the two side by side really makes orthanc look like a bargain. The high is surprisingly close.

Orthanc is now about 900$! It's an old and desirable set.

@@gdtyphon Not if you buy a fake one, or brick link the pieces ;) And I mean Lego isn't even losing any money if you do that, because they aren't selling it. The only people losing out are the resellers who only bought it so they could sell it for 5x the price down the line.

This is really cool, but Barad-Dur and Orthanc being the eponymous two towers is kinda from the sensalization of the movie. According to a Tolkien letter, the two towers are actually Minas Tirith and Minas Morgul

@Louis-yb5ni 3 ай бұрын

But why is it minas tirith and minas morgul and not orthanc and barad dur? They aren’t really mentioned in the books are they?

4:28 Actually, Barad-Dûr in the films stands at 5,000 feet tall. To put Barad-Dûr in scale with the Tower of Orthanc, Barad-Dûr would have to be 8.8x bigger than the official Icons Barad-Dûr set.

@roverboy006 3 ай бұрын

The Orthanc Minifigures you have are not accurate. Saruman has a robe and not legs. The Grima torso is not correct. The Uruk-hai should be a white hand. You don’t have Treebeard or the Eagle if you want to compare the full sets. Good first video.

@veloction6130 3 ай бұрын

Saruman came with 2 leg pieces, a robe like you said and plain legs

Another thing is the grima mini figure is custom because it’s so expensive.

@gdtyphon 3 ай бұрын

THE MINIFIGURES FOR ORTHANC ARE COMPLETELY WRONG!!! (I would know, I have the set.) Saruman comes with a special printed robe piece. Gandalf- yeah gandalf is correct. Grima wormtongue has a different skin colour, and a completely different face and torso print. The orc is COMPLETELY inaccurate, it's supposed to be dark tan and have more spiky armour, not bones??? The Uruk Hai has HELMET PRINTING and a SHIELD, both having the White Hand of Saruman on them! You also didn't include the super cool Eagle and Treebeard, the Ent, included in the set. I'm guessing you didn't want to spend too much money on this, so you just went and bought the tower and kind of puzzled together other minfigures for it. This wouldn't be surprising, as Saruman is 80$ and Grima Wormtongue is 130$. I also find it really funny how you replaced the Palantir because the actual piece is about 90$

@Tweed_Tone 3 ай бұрын

I’m disappointed barad dur is so short. Perhaps it’s better to look at the much bigger custom builds that stands out.

@Emrys2021 3 ай бұрын

Shame that Orthanc is legit. Palantir is pink rather than the cool green/black swirls. Grima is not himself, Saruman has a cool robe skirt that matches his shirt, Uruk has a white hand on helm and plain coloured chest armour, the orc pictured is a Gundabad Orc from the Hobbit. It also has a nice eagle and one of my favourite characters... Treebeard 😢
