5.0 out of 5 stars The army-building and fortress-expanding set, May 18, 2012

9471 The Uruk-hai Army is a 257 piece LEGO building block set that was initially released in May of 2012 with a LEGO retail store price of $29.99. It is part of the first wave of releases in the LEGO Lord of the Rings collection, and contains six minifigures, a horse, pieces for a rolling "hook shooter," pieces for a fortress wall, and numerous weapons/accessories. The minifigures include two members of the army of Rohan (Eomer and a generic soldier) along with four Uruk-hai (a sort of fantasy super orc).

When you first look at this set, you'll probably think to yourself that it is pretty boring. I mean, most LotR fans aren't jumping up and down to get hold of this set's "exclusive" Eomer figure (half probably don't even remember who he is). The figures look interesting, but they aren't particularly unique. AND THAT IS THE BEAUTY OF THIS SET! First, it is an army builder - meaning that, if you want to build a big army of Uruk-hai, this is the set to buy with its four... Read more

This review is from: LEGO The Lord of the Rings Hobbit Urak-Hai Army (9471) (Toy)
This is my daughter's favorite LOTR Lego set so far, and she's thirteen. Not only does it have a good deal of mini-figures for play once the set is complete, but has freestanding weapon to boot. It certainly wasn't the most challenging set she has put together by far, but the catapult actually works and rolls, and there were plenty to figures to wage a battle with once it was completed. The castle stands easily, even on carpet. I would recommend this set for any LOTR fan, Lego collector, and anyone who enjoys interactive play, "big" kid and "little" kid alike.

but this set won't mesh well with Kingdom's sets.

I bought this set from the LEGO website, bundled with The Battle of Helm's Deep (9474). In addition to a free shipping promotion, I received double points, a poster, and a small airplane. This set will make a good display piece in my apartment.

PACKAGING:
This set contains one instruction manual that is about 75 pages long. The set is split up into two bags. The first bag builds the four Uruk-hai (evil?) soldiers, along with a ballista. The second bag builds the two Rohan (good?) soliders, the horse, and the section of wall. The instruction manual is not attached to cardboard; you will probably want paperweights.

MINIFIGURES:
All of the Uruk-hai minifigures have red faces; they will not work well in Kingdom's sets unless you have extra heads or keep their helmets on. Two of the Uruk-hai soldiers have large battleaxes, chest plates, and a new style of helmet. The other two have a shield and a... Read more
