5.0 out of 5 stars Years awaited toy May 31, 2012
A Kid's Review
Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 3.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
I received this Lego about two days ago. I had waited for this moment for 10 whole years. Lord of The Rings is my favorite movie and I have desired this Lego for almost all of my life and this particular set is the exact one I wanted.When I obtained my set I noticed that it was huge. However Lego had done a great job designing this set to avoid confusion and a large mess in which pieces could be lost. The set is combined into four sections and has two instruction booklets. You only have to open one bag at a time to build the section you are on. I know a lot about Lego and how to build and have been building lego for many years and still do not understand how they managed to make the walls of Moria look dilapidated and as if many wars were fought there without the structure itself being unsturdy. They have done an exquisite job of making the movie come to life and adding features without turning from the path of the story. I have had hours of fun with the mass battles I have had using this set. I particularly love the door feature (You can see this on Lego.com)that allows you to place and axe in the door the way the characters did in the movie. You can hide a chest of gold, push pillars down, blow open Ballins coffin and knock a body and bucket into a well. My favorite looking character is Bourimir. His shield is amazing to look at and armor and colors make him look ready for combat. The cave troll is an awesome addition to this set he is the biggest character lego has made so far ( not including bionicles). He is even bigger than hulk. The one problem with him is tiny, he is for some reason more blue than gray, but still only a small problem. I really enjoyed having random weapons strewn on the ground it adds to the reckage going on in this set. I really understand lego and even hope to design the sets one day and I know there is nothing more you can ask from this set you will be pleased with what you get and definitely get this set especially for lovers of Lego and The Lord of The Rings.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun LEGO recreation of the Mines of Moria May 18, 2012
By ceigna
Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
I was super excited when LEGO announced their Lord of the Rings line last year. So as soon as I got this yesterday, I opened it up and put it together in about an hour with my husband.

Like any LEGO set, this set is extremely detailed and intricate. There's a well with a lid you can pull out to let the bucket and skeleton drop. Balin's tomb contains a (sadly) full-sized instead of dwarf-sized skeleton. The largest part of the set comes with two pillars that topples down and a treasure chest that pushes out from its enclosure. If I had more time to play with LEGOs, I can definitely see myself trying to recreate the scene from the movie.

The mini-figs that come with the set includes Pippin, Gimli, Boromir, LEGOlas, a cave troll, and two goblins. The Pippin figure is adorable and, I think, captures the film Pippin pretty accurately from his hobbit hair to his expressions (you can choose between horrified or confused with a twist of his head). Gimli is also adorable with his gigantic beard and axes. The only downside to the hobbit and dwarf mini-figs is that they aren't very bendable at all. Since their LEGO legs are shorter than regular LEGO legs, they do not articulate at all. Hence, they can't move their legs and can't sit down. Boromir, Legolas, and the goblins are pretty standard. The cave troll is pretty similar to The Hulk in LEGO's Marvel Superhero set in that its arms and hands can be moved but its legs are sadly one piece with its body. One addition is a place on the cave troll's head for Legolas to stand on for movie recreation purposes.

The only gripe I have with the LOTR sets is the way LEGO split up the members of the fellowship between separate sets. I understand it's their way of getting people to buy all their sets to complete the mini-fig collection (and I've already ordered several LOTR sets) but it just seems kind of contrived to have the Mines of Moria set and not have the rest of the fellowship. Still, LEGO makes such awesome products and I'm all ready to hand over my money for the LOTR video game.

5.0 out of 5 stars My favorite of the initial LEGO LotR sets! May 18, 2012
Durability: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Educational: 5.0 out of 5 stars    Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
9473 The Mines of Moria is a 776-piece LEGO set initially released in May of 2012 with a LEGO store price of $79.99. It is part of the first wave of Lord of the Rings-licensed sets, and includes Legolas, Gimli, Boromir, Pippin, a giant cave troll, two skeletons, two orcs, numerous accessories, and a ton of grey bricks to build with. It is my *FAVORITE* of the LEGO LotR sets so far.

Why do I like it so much? Two main reasons: 1) it is a BIG, exciting set and 2) the pieces can be used to build a lot of different things. With the first part.. the set contains an excellent selection of good guys (The Fellowship), bad guys (orcs, trolls, and skeletons), and interesting things to build. There's a treasure chest that can be hidden, walls that collapse, a tomb that flip open, and an opening and closing door/gate. This set is DYNAMIC. You're going to want to build it, play with it, alter it, and play with it some more. The pieces can also be used to build a lot of different things. When you're done playing in the Mines of Moria, you can build a castle with all of the grey pieces (the mine gate is now a castle gate!), or use them to build up other LotR, Castle, or Kingdom sets. The bad guy minifigs will fit right into other Castle sets, though the good guys have a slightly different skin color than normal LEGOs (cream-flesh colored for the LotR characters rather than LEGO yellow). The weapons, treasure, and skeletons will also make a nice addition to any LEGO Kingdom or Castles collection.

Rating: 5 out of 5 Stars. This is one of the best LEGO sets I've seen in a while.
