The Best LEGO Lord of the Rings Sets for 2026

Back in 2023, LEGO released Lord of the Rings Rivendell – a 6,000-piece tribute to Peter Jackson's vision of Middle-Earth and the J.R.R. Tolkien-written books that inspired it. You can check it out on Amazon. I reviewed the set for IGN and interviewed the designer in a follow-up feature. It is one of the best, most detail-oriented builds of the past five years.

In 2024, LEGO released another massive Lord of the Rings set, this time of Barad-dûr, the massive tower in Mordor that's topped with the Eye of Sauron. Similar to Rivendell, it is laden with numerous, movie-accurate details. Then 2025 brought us The Shire, another rich, albeit smaller build. And now, in 2026, we have Minas-Tirith, the fabled White City and capital of Gondor.

Currently, there are very few Lord of the Rings sets on sale, but this wasn't always the case. LEGO and Lord of the Rings first partnered in June 2012, and between June 2012 and October 2014, LEGO released numerous sets that celebrated both the original Lord of the Rings film trilogy and the subsequent Hobbit trilogy. The last of these went out of print in July 2015; the only way to obtain them now would be to go on the expensive secondary market.

Here is a showcase of the major LEGO Lord of the Rings sets over the past decade plus: what was released and subsequently retired; what is currently on sale; and what we might expect to see in the future.
