Lego brings Frodo, Samwise, Merry, Pippin, and Bilbo back to the Shire.

Following a 6,167-piece recreation of the elven sanctuary Rivendell released in 2023, Lego is revisiting The Lord of the Rings with a new 2,017-piece version of the Shire. The set launches on April 5th for $269 and includes nine minifigures: Frodo, Samwise, Merry, Pippin, Bilbo, Gandalf, Mrs. Proudfoot, Farmer Proudfoot, and Rosie Cotton. Interactive play features include a dial that can make Bilbo disappear and a burning letter that turns into the One Ring.
