What Makes It Special

• Display-worthy design — This isn’t just about play; it’s about creating a centerpiece. Barad-dûr dominates any shelf with its sheer height and ominous silhouette.
• Interiors that reward exploration — The hidden rooms, the rotate ladder, the cage, the hidden map—all these offer more than just exterior flair.
• Bringing Sauron to LEGO fans — For many this is the first official Sauron minifigure in such a display-scale model, plus other characters tied closely to Mordor lore.
• Blend of faithful design and LEGO creativity — While staying true to the visual style from the films, LEGO adds function (light, gate mechanism), and playful touches (Easter eggs, clever interior rooms).
