LEGO Lord of the Rings The Tower of Orthanc (10237) Image?

January 3, 2013 / / 1 Comment

An image of the LEGO Lord of the Rings The Tower of Orthanc (10237) may have popped up on the internets. Flickr user, motayan, has posted what appears to be a blurred image of the Orthanc with a partial “Confidential” watermark. Because of the watermark, we will not be posting it here until it becomes official. The image also gave dimensions of the tower with it being 8.27 inches wide by 28.75 inches tall. That’s one heck of a tall set! I’m assuming that one of the minifigures included will be Saruman the White. Do you think the image from the user is legitimate? If so, what are your thoughts of it?

Update: The image was taken down, probably due to it bearing the watermark.

Update 2: LEGO has revealed the The Tower of Orthanc (10237) in Portugal today.

LEGO Lord of the Rings Xbox 360 Video Game Mixup

November 13, 2012 / / 0 Comments

If you’re planning on picking up the new LEGO Lord of the Rings video game for the Xbox 360, you might want to open it up in the store before you go home. GameInformer is reporting that certain shipments of the game contain a demo disc of the game instead of the actual game. So far, this issue is only affecting the Xbox version and not the PS3 version. If you’ve preordered the Xbox version to get the Elrond minifigure today, check your game or else you’ll have an expensive demo and minifig on your hands.

Update: Although the discs are marked a demo, some of them might be the full game. IGN has gotten their hands on one of these “demo” discs and confirmed that the are actually the full game.

LEGO Lord of the Rings Video Game Free Demo

November 3, 2012 / / 0 Comments

As we get closer to the release of the LEGO Lord of the Ringsicon video game, you might be wondering what the game is like. Over on the LEGO Lord of the Rings video game minisite, you can now download a free pre-release demo level of the game for the PC. The game will work on Windows 7, XP, and Vista but not for the Mac. Below is a walkthrough of the gameplay.

**Spoilers**

The demo takes place at the end of The Two Towers with a cutscene where the characters arrive at Helm’s Deep and prepare for battle. After the cutscene, you get to play as Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli to solve a puzzle to get to the top of the castle walls. Then another cutscene starts where a Rohan archer accidentally shoots and kills an Uruk-hai and the battle begins. Again, you control the characters and you have to destroy the ladders that are perched against the wall. There are three rounds of this. Shortly, another cutscene starts with a berserker runs towards the wall where explosives are set while Legolas and Gilmi fail to stop him. The wall explodes and you gain control of the characters again to retreat into the keep. A short cutscene again you have to hold off the Uruk-hai and repair the door. After that, you control Legolas to take down some more ladders. There’s also a small puzzle where you push a box down to Aragorn and Gimli to create a perch to climb up a rope … Continue
