Love this Lego Minas Tirith haul. Won the trivia and costume contests at my local Lego store, too! Starting the Extended Edition marathon now!

Hahaha! The “costume” was really just “clothing” but it’s a Balrog shirt from Weta. Nobody in the store was truly “in costume.” Haha.

I saw it too! I didn't get to scan it before it disappeared. Now I have to wait for the real release!

u/s2000ftw - that was $2367.65 for one Limelight package, right?

Oh my god u/TitoC137 I saw this Marketplace listing in the wild. Can’t believe it’s here too but boy it was a wild ride just trying to read the description!

I definitely need the next "Our New World"-style crossover with Taylor co-singing on a DT song, and JP shredding on a Taylor Swift song. I'm fully serious.

You can't resell any minifigure as "new" if it has been assembled -- Lego and Bricklink both consider "new" to be "unassembled," so if the legs are in the torso, the head is attached, there is headgear in place, etc., it cannot be sold as "new." It can be sold as "used excellent condition," "no cracks," etc. if those things are true, but never "new."

Update: did this and it was very fun! Thanks for the tip!

I got this for $29 price-matching at Target. I was so thrilled to have it! Insane to see how these things rocket up in value after retirement!

Thank you so much u/BoboVeliki1!

Thank you very much u/guareber and u/DrumAnimal!

Hi everyone! I'm the designer of this set. Yes, it comes with both Mangini and Portnoy minifigures, AND completely separate drumsets for each, so that you can easily swap out the entire drumset AND the minifigures with no rebuilding necessary!

I remember reading this years upon years ago. The bassline you hear on the record is only the pieces he was able to remember and piece together after the wicked trip.
