LEGO The Hobbit Attack of the Wargs (79002) Review

Continuing our Hobbit set reviews, today we review one of the more interesting sets in the line, Attack of the Wargs (79002). This along with the other sets are scheduled to be released November 27, 2012 but I found them at Walmart after Black Friday. This set contains 400 pieces and retails for $49.99, which comes to $0.12/piece. You get one instruction booklet, three numbered bags, and two separately bagged Wargs.

LEGO The Hobbit Gandalf The Grey Polybag (30213) Found

An image of a new The Hobbit polybag has surfaced on eBay just a week after the Mirkwood Elf Guard hit the shelves at Toys R Us. A seller by the name of bucaroo is selling the new 31 piece The Hobbit Gandalf The Grey Polybag (30212) in lots of 10.

From what we can see, it is the same Gandalf minifigure as the ones we’ve seen in previous sets, which is pretty disappointing. His accessories include his staff and a map. There is also a rock formation with a torch with a spear and a sword as well as a skull and a spider on the side. We’re not sure where the selling got the polybags from or what retail store(s) will be selling this polybag yet, but my bet is that it might be at TRU stores in the near future.

LEGO The Hobbit Escape From Mirkwood Spiders (79001) Review

The LEGO The Hobbit Escape From Mirkwood Spiders (79001) is the second smallest set in the Hobbit line. It contains 298 pieces and retails for $29.99 which is $0.10/piece. This set is one of the two Special The Hobbit Trilogy Preview Sets along with the Barren Escape (79004). The reason is because the scenes in these particular sets are not in An Unexpected Journey, but in the next movie, The Desolation of Smaug. The set contains two numbered bags and one instruction booklet.

LEGO The Hobbit Riddles For The Ring (79000) Review

I was at Walmart the day after Black Friday to see what was available in the LEGO section. To my surprise, I saw a pallet stocked with a few of the new Hobbit sets so I grabbed what I could, find including the first set in the series, Riddles For The Ring (79000). The set retails for $9.99 and consists of 105 pieces, about $0.10/piece. There are two un-numbered bags and one instruction booklet. In the back of the instruction book, you can also see all the minifigures in the Hobbit theme.

LEGO The Hobbit Mirkwood Elf Guard (30212) Polybag Available at Toys R Us

LEGO The Hobbit Mirkwood Elf Guard (30212)

Brickset has reported that the first Hobbit polybag has been found at Toys R Us, the Mirkwood Elf Guard (30212) polybag. You get a really nice dark green hooded elf with a bow and arrow as his weapon. You also get a small tree with a torch on the side and a mushroom. But wait, there’s more! You also get a wine glass as well as a barrel. For only $4.99, this looks to be a hot selling polybag in the near future.

Update 1: It looks like the polybag has been pulled from the TRU website.
