LEGO Lord of the Rings Book Nook

This 1,201-piece LEGO set recreates the iconic Gandalf vs. Balrog showdown on the Bridge of Khazad-dûm from The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, complete with a plaque featuring the famous "You shall not pass!" quote. Beyond functioning as a book nook, it transforms into a full diorama, perfect as a striking centerpiece for your coffee table or bookshelf. The detailed Gandalf minifigure comes with his sword and staff, while the posable Balrog includes wings and a fiery whip, making it an ideal gift for Lord of the Rings enthusiasts.

The Sherlock Holmes and Harry Potter book nooks are equally intricate, packed with clever references to their franchises. The Sherlock Holmes set vividly captures Baker Street, home of the famed detective, and includes minifigures of Sherlock, Dr. Watson, and Moriarty, among others. It opens into a detailed street view, with the iconic Sherlock Holmes logo from the books on the back. The Harry Potter Hogwarts Express set features Harry and Ron Weasley minifigures, splitting the iconic red train between King’s Cross station and the magical Platform 9 3/4. While it functions as a book nook, it shines more as a display model, as the folded nook mode looks slightly awkward with the train halves side by side. This set is part of a broader wave of new LEGO Harry Potter releases arriving in June.
