I bought the LEGO Rivendell set close to when it came out. It was a fun one to build, and I would do it again. Honestly, I'll probably need to disassemble and reassemble at least some of it whenever I move.
...came here to post the same: we have a lot of flagship lego sets but rivendell is an unparalleled masterpiece, so exceptional that it makes almost everything else seem unworthy of shelf space by comparison...
I don't have a ton of sets, but I absolutely love Rivendell. It is beautiful to look at, has all of the fellowship, and has so many tiny details. Truly one of LEGO's best sets in my opinion.
...we (my wife + myself) were so disappointed by barad-dรปr afterward!..we didn't buy it, so we haven't built it, but based on the photos it's neither inspired nor crafted to the same exceptional standard as rivendell...
