LEGO Icons The Lord of the Rings: Barad-dûr sells out ahead of wider release

LEGO Icons 10333 The Lord of the Rings: Barad-dûr is available to buy for all as of tomorrow – but it’ll come with a wait, thanks to a strong first few days of sales.

10333 The Lord of the Rings: Barad-dûr has gone on back order until June 13 in the UK, for 60 days in the US, and until June 10 in Europe, a day before its wider release on June 4. Until then, it’s only been available to buy for LEGO Insiders, highlighting the benefits of signing up to the LEGO Group’s free loyalty program.

As well as collecting points that can be exchanged for LEGO vouchers (the equivalent of 5% cashback) or exclusive rewards, LEGO Insiders get early access to a number of sets each year, usually high-profile ones that could easily sell out just like 10333 The Lord of the Rings: Barad-dûr.

The enormous set did last longer than its exclusive GWP, which started selling on the secondhand market within hours of launching. Non-LEGO Insiders won’t have had a chance to get their hands on the free gift and will now need to wait until the dates listed above to see their own copy of 10333 The Lord of the Rings: Barad-dûr ship. You can of course still try and find it in physical LEGO stores near you, who might still have some stock.

If this has convinced you to sign up for LEGO Insiders, you can do so here.
