Most of the time, capes and cloaks don’t hang over the hands. Another place where overlapping is used is on the cloak. It is an odd size so the face overlaps it, covering part of the top of the tile in order to accommodate an oddly shaped piece. One place we see it is on the printed 2×3 tile of the torso. What is really interesting in this model is the overlapping techniques. Being a halfling, he is built with slightly shorter legs two plates instead of the standard one brick). Though, I do like the fact that he comes with a fish.įrodo, on the other hand, is a much more interesting build. All this model really captures is that Gollum is small and wears a loincloth. Unfortunately, in BrickHeadz, that is one aspect that had to be abandoned. In all fairness, the most interesting aspect of Gollum’s form is his wiry misshapen body. Not only is he smaller scale, but his only distinguishing characteristics are a few printed 1×3 tiles around the top of his head.
I do really appreciate these characters being made, but I did find Gollum to be downright dull to build. In my opinion, this set is a bit of a mixed bag. Needless to say, these are some of the most iconic characters in The Lord of the Rings. One is a symbol of a halfling warped by the ring’s influence, while the other is the hope that the halflings offer the world of Middle Earth.
So without further delay, let’s see what kind of adventures the LEGO Lord of the Rings BrickHeadz characters take us! #40630 LEGO LORD OF THE RINGS BRICKHEADZ FRODO & GOLLUMįirst up are the two characters that are central to the story. As I have built so many, I’m familiar with the building techniques used for the sets, and I can focus on the finer strengths and weaknesses of each model. I’ve now collected over a hundred LEGO BrickHeadz characters, and I don’t see myself stopping anytime soon. When I first heard there were going to be LEGO Lord of the Rings BrickHeadz, I was stoked.
