LEGO Icons 10333 The Lord of the Rings: Barad-dûr officially revealed
The LEGO Group has officially revealed 10333 The Lord of the Rings: Barad-dûr, its next colossal Middle-earth set and the successor to last year’s 10316 Rivendell.
Available from June 1 for LEGO Insiders (and June 4 for everyone else) for £399.99 / $459.99 / €459.99, 10333 The Lord of the Rings: Barad-dûr includes 5,471 pieces and 10 minifigures. Among those are the first-ever Sauron, a new and updated Mouth of Sauron, Gothmog, four Mordor orcs, Frodo, Sam and Gollum, the latter of whom returns to the LEGO The Lord of the Rings line-up for the first time since 2012.
The tower itself stands a stunning 83cm tall, 30cm wide and 45cm deep, commanding even more space vertically than 10316 The Lord of the Rings: Rivendell did horizontally. Atop the stronghold sits the Eye of Sauron, which can rotate along multiple axes and is illuminated by a light brick, while a fiery base at the bottom situates the entire model inside Mordor.
There’s a fully-stacked interior too, complete with an armoury, kitchen, throne room and study, with secret compartments and details galore. 10333 The Lord of the Rings: Barad-dûr is built in four sections, and the spire can actually be stacked multiple times over if you have the space and budget to buy more than one copy of the set (or the wherewithal to purchase the required elements separately).
If you buy 10333 The Lord of the Rings: Barad-dûr between June 1 and 7, you’ll receive a free copy of 40693 The Lord of the Rings: Fell Beast – which comes with a new and exclusive Nazgûl minifigure – while stocks last.
10333 The Lord of the Rings: Barad-dûr is available for LEGO Insiders from June 1 for £399.99 / $469.99 / €469.99. Keep an eye out for our review very soon.

- I like to think of myself as a journalist first, LEGO fan second, but we all know that’s not really the case. Journalism does run through my veins, though, like some kind of weird literary blood – the sort that will no doubt one day lead to a stress-induced heart malfunction. It’s like smoking, only worse. Thankfully, I get to write about LEGO until then.
