The LEGO company has confirmed that next year will see the release of several Lord of the Rings-themed sets in its building range. These will be based around several key events in the JRR Tolkien novels and their acclaimed film adaptations helmed by Peter Jackson, as well as the storylines of the two Hobbit prequels on their way in 2012 and 2013. I'd expect some Fellowship vs. Orc battlefields, a Mount Doom recreation and more exciting setpieces to be recreated in brick form by next Summer, and with any luck a video-game tie in to coincide with the release of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey next November is inevitable. If not, because with both LEGO City Stories and LEGO Batman 2 on their way in 2012 things might get too crowded for Travellers' Tales as they did this year, so perhaps the build-up can really start towards The Hobbit: There And Back Again in 2013 with the game!
