Collecting Tolkien Theme - Lego

Lego is not an obvious theme as you would think that it is all about the Lego building sets. I do however have a few other bits and pieces which make it into a small Theme.

I did not originally collect Tolkien Lego as I thought it was too expensive, however there ended up not as many sets as I thought there might have been and I did really like them, particularly The Lord if the a Rings ones (I was not so impressed by the the Hobbit ones), so I started to collect them. I started off by getting a few of the ones I liked, when they were a bit cheaper, at the end of their run. But like all collectors, once I had a few, I just had to have them all. I now have all of the sets.

These are the items I have:
