Because printing money is easy for some companies, LEGO has announced an official Lord Of The Rings Sauron’s Helmet build set. The kit will be released March 1st for $70 and include 538 pieces, including a Sauron minfig holding the One Ring. Honestly, $70 is still expensive, but after all the $200 and $300 sets they’ve been releasing lately it almost seems like a steal. It isn’t though, just to be clear. When completed (provided you didn’t eat any crucial pieces), the set makes a 13″ x 5″ replica of Sauron’s helmet. And what a helmet it is! Has anybody ever cosplayed as sloppy Sauron and made a Sauron beer helmet? Because that’s a convention-stealing cosplay idea right there. If you use it though I get half the costume contest prize money.
