LEGO Hobbit sets -- 6 of them!
We just got our Lego catalog last night, and it features SIX Hobbit sets to be available November 27. So now that I am at work this morning, I came here to add my thoughts to the forum, and nobody has started a thread yet...??? Did we get our catalog early? I don't even see the sets online yet, either. Now I'm sad that I cannot scan/upload pics until this evening (but I will if nobody else has by then).

But what I loved is that across all six sets, you can get all 13 dwarves!

Are they
Bag End, Gollum's Cave, Goblin Town, Out of the Frying Pan, and Mirkwood?

If so, then there have been many, many threads.Wink

Missed one
There is also the Barrel Escape (or something like that - I don't have the catalog here in front of me).

But yes, those are them. Oh well - I usually just hang around in the Movies forum, so when I didn't see anything for the last month here, figured there wasn't one (though - once again, I'm likely being bitten by the default sort order here being creation date, but that is a whole 'nuther subject entirely).

So, have people already talked about the pricing yet? Or was that also known beforehand? Because it is odd that I still cannot find them at the online lego shop.

From what I remember
We've only discussed what spoilers we can get from the sets (coloured pine cones, Yazneg etc.)

We haven't spoken about the pricing. I dread to think how much they will be though.Crazy

I have two of the sets already
Riddles for the Ring was 9.99 and Escape from Mirkwood was $29.99. The store (Fred Meyer) I went to released them early, but they officially come out somewhere around Nov 27th - Dec 1.
Kmart.com has some available to purchase online.

The Goblin battle is $99, though I've seen it for $89 at the store I went to. And bag end is $69.99, though I havent seen this in store yet, I'm hoping it retails for cheaper, say $59.
The barrel/elf set is exclusive to the Lego store and a retailer, perhaps Toys R Us though I am not sure yet. Not sure on its price either, but I'm guessing around $40, similar to the Orc Forge only found at Target.

Heres a pic I took of Riddles for the Ring. Its a cool a little set.
