Review: 79007 Battle at the Black Gate
 – FBTB71Q-iG1wUaL._SY355_
LEGO was kind enough to send us a copy of 79007 The Battle at the Black Gate for review, the middle-tier set in the second big wave of Lord of the Rings sets. I genuinely liked the Weathertop set that occupies the same price point, even with its absurd flick-fires. Of course, battle is a bit of a misnomer, since I think they normally involve more people than a pickup game of basketball.

There actually was a battle at the Black Gate, in Return of the King, which was a distraction so that a couple of Hobbits could throw a ring in some lava. The Black Gate itself was also featured in The Two Towers, in one of the cooler little tricks of cinematography where we Rudy and the kid that thought a video game was a baby toy in Back to the Future II hid under a cloak in a different part of the screen than you were looking. In truth, the vast majority of the detail for the gate was in that little scene, since it showed trolls pulling chains and people going through them... Read more here

 


The Lord of the Rings 79007: The Battle at the Black Gate [Review]
 – Brothers Brick

The summer wave of Lord of the Rings sets are skewed towards the high end of the price-range, with 79007 The Battle at the Black Gate in the middle at $60 USD. It does have a nice price-to-parts ratio, with 656 pieces. Beyond the fact that it’s a Lord of the Rings set, which I admittedly love, I wasn’t too thrilled about this set. After all, LEGO’s Battle at the Black Gate consists of, well, a black gate. And not much of a battle.

The gate has been scaled down nicely enough, though compared to the monstrously large gate seen on the screen in The Return of the King, LEGO’s seems laughably small. Still, that’s forgivable, since I doubt many people would be interested in purchasing a true-to-scale version of what amounts to a big wall (or be able to afford it). The gate is paired with a small tower,..Read more here

Here’s What An Amazon Reviewer Had to Say About LEGO LOTR Battle at The Black Gate Building Set

Caroline Emily TOP 100 REVIEWER

…A Great looking and inspired set, but somewhat fragile……

Once built, I have to say, this is really a great looking set. It’s smallish in fact the Lego booklets even encourage buying additional sets to make it larger, which is kind of redundant if you ask me, but it’s almost comparable to the Helms Deep set which is twice as large. The design however is awesome with the black color pattern and the intricate series of spikes.

My real gripe with the set however, is that it’s very fragile, and can be very flimsy when trying to put together. The instructions require you to attach the gates onto the main platform, before the gates are fully built. This makes pressing down on the pieces to attach them very a very delicate task. Several times when building, for me, that gate portion completely fell apart as I was trying to attach a certain piece. It was very frustrating. Even when fully built, the model is still a bit wobbly, and doesn’t feel like it’s completely solid. This is very disappointing, because, like said, it’s a really cool looking set.

As for the minifig selection, you get a good group, but not as big as you’d expect for a set this size. The inclusion of two animals, a horse and an eagle, is most likely the reason for this. But we get Gandalf in his White incarnation finally, and Aragorn in slightly more kingly attire (the other sets make him so scruffy you’d almost think he was one of the villains). Then finally, the very obscure character The Mouth of Sauron. Because his part was cut from the Jackson movie (tho I believe it’s included in the special editions). You might think he’s a Nazgul, but he’s not. Just a mortal warrior who speaks for Sauron. He’s really a great looking figure, with a menacing, Joker-like grin.

In all. Not the best of the Lego LOTR sets. It’s fragility sets it back a point for me. Spend your money on Helms Deep or The Mines of Moria first. However, it is an inspired set, with an intricate and great looking design.
