Getting a tiny Dark Lord has never been cheaper

Lego’s next The Lord of the Rings set will give builders a double dose of Sauron, both in menacing bust form and as an adorable little minifigure. The Lord of the Rings: Sauron’s Helmet Lego set will arrive on March 1, otherwise known as Aragorn’s birthday.
The new 538-piece Lego Icons set will let Lord of the Rings fans recreate Sauron’s helmet as seen in Peter Jackson’s movie trilogy and display it on a sleek black stand with a name plaque. Also included in the package is Sauron in wee minifig size, clutching The One Ring. It’s a must-have if you’ve already invested the $459.99 in Lego’s The Lord of the Rings: Barad-dûr set. But if you haven’t gone all in on Mordor Lego, it’s a much cheaper way of getting your hands on a Sauron minifigure.

The Lord of the Rings: Sauron’s Helmet Lego set costs $69.99, and is available for pre-order now for a March 1 release. The helmet model stands over 13 inches (33 cm) high, 5 inches (13 cm) wide, and 5 inches (13 cm) deep.
Lego and Warner Bros. have released a wide variety of Lord of the Rings sets in recent years, ranging from BrickHeadz versions of characters like Gandalf, Frodo, and Legolas, to expansive (and expensive) sets based on the Shire and Rivendell. The Lord of the Rings: Sauron’s Helmet set falls into the middle range of Lego’s offerings, and is aimed at builders aged 18 and up.
