Actually, the first of three LotR movies is out Decemeber 14, 2001. About
309 days from now, give or take a few hours. Not that I'm counting, or
anything. :)
I think that sets based on LotR would be super-cool, and I'd probably buy
all of them, even if horrid, much like the die-hard SW fans are buying all
the SW sets.
Of course, if SW is any predictor, we won't get any orcs until the 3rd year
of the license, and then we'll get 1 in a $50 Cirith Ungol playset. :(
And of course, there's the other great thing about Lego... you don't have to
wait, you can build your own. :)
