  Tower of Orthanc
 
Who did the Isengard Tower (Saruman's Tower) at Brickfest? That was one of my favorite buildings to look at as I browsed through everyone's great pictures. Maybe they will come out with a line of Lord of the Rings Legos, since they are doing movie (...) (23 years ago, 23-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Not going to happen, I'm afraid. New Line Cinema has already signed off on the toy licenses, and LEGO isn't in the list. James (23 years ago, 23-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Darn. Maybe if the HP Lego line does well, New Line will reconsider. *wanting short minifig legs for hobbits and dwarves* (23 years ago, 23-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Can someone post a link to this model? I must have missed it/didn't realize what it was while I was at Brickfest. -- Thomas Main thomasmain@hotmail.com (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Elliott-- is that Gandalf up there trapped at the top of the tower, or is it the traitor Saruman gazing at the stars? And whose white and black shoe is that in the background (the one with the leg sticking into it!) Aaron (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Tower of Orthanc
 
WOW! That's a great LOTR model, Elliot! I can see it was inspired by some LOTR artwork. BTW how tall is Orthanc, exactly? If it was mentioned in LOTR than I must have forgotten it. What scale did you use Elliot? (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)

Hi Aaron! (...) He spells it with one "t", methinks. <snip> (...) That's Chris Maddison. -Shiri (who can probably put a name to every single creation and person in that room - phew! Being room captain was exhausting.) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: Tower of Orthanc
 
(...) Okay. (...) Thanks. I always like to try to put faces with names. (...) Room captain, were you? I guess you are the best person to address with questions regarding the Castle Room at Brickfest. Also you are the best person to correct small (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)

  Re: Tower of Orthanc
 
Thanks! If you were where Gandalf stood you'd be 500 feet from the ground. My tower has 8 floors, and is about 100 "lego feet" tall. So my tower has a ways to go yet. I didn't use a scale. I just used what pieces I had for the base and went up from (...) (23 years ago, 25-Jul-01, to lugnet.castle)
