Review: 79001 Escape from Mirkwood Spiders – FBTB

Have I made a joke lately about my proud history of timely reviews? Probably, given the sheer numbers of reviews that I have done well after the set was brand new and the movie in an out of theaters (or DVD), I probably have. To make matters worse, I often take the pictures right away, and then get busy before writing the review.

Case in point, Escape from Mirkwood Spiders, a set of pictures I took last year and uploaded to Flickr for comments. In the run of Hobbit sets, this set, along with Barrel Escape, stand out simply because they aren’t in the first movie, they appear somewhere later in the whole thing. Presumably, as this set includes Legolas, and he’s been shoehorned in to the second (and third) movies, it will probably show up in the upcoming “The Desolation of Smaug.”

Given that spider attacks are something of a thing in the series in general, it wasn’t surprising that they’d show up here. Though somehow, I doubt they’re the high fantasy, talking sort that Bilbo ran in to. All of that being said, how does this $30 set stack up in a world where the $30 sets often have been the stars of their line?... Read more here

LEGO The Hobbit Escape From Mirkwood Spiders (79001) Review – Thebrickfan

The LEGO The Hobbit Escape From Mirkwood Spiders (79001) is the second smallest set in the Hobbit line. It contains 298 pieces and retails for $29.99 which is $0.10/piece. This set is one of the two Special The Hobbit Trilogy Preview Sets along with the Barren Escape (79004). The reason is because the scenes in these particular sets are not in An Unexpected Journey, but in the next movie, The Desolation of Smaug. The set contains two numbered bags and one instruction booklet.

There are four exclusive minifigures in the set: Tauriel, Legolas Greenleaf, Fili the Dwarf, and Kili the Dwarf. Tauriel a warrior Silvan Elf and the head of the Elven guard of Mirkwood. The torso and leg printing shows here wearing a dark green and brown tunic which she uses to help her blend with the forest. She has a double-side head that shows her stern and angry faces. Also, her ears are attached to the hairpieces and lines up pretty well to the head. For Tauriel’s weapons, although she can use a bow and arrow as well as daggers, her weapons of choice in the set are the daggers. The are the same daggers as the Prince of Persia ones,... Read more here

Here’s What An Amazon Reviewer Had to Say About Lego The Hobbit Escape from Mirkwood Spiders Building Set

Lee TOP 100 REVIEWER

…Nice Hobbit preview set for the Desolation of Smaug……

This is a nice little $30 lego set that features two Mirkwood trees, two spiders, and four mini figures, Fili, Kili, Tauriel, and Legolas. There are quite a few unique pieces to this set I really enjoyed, such as the spider web, two spider sacs (which you can put mini figures in and hang from the tree), mushrooms, skulls, bones, vines, and mini spiders.

My favorite thing about the set is the glow in the dark pieces used for the spider eyes and the mushrooms, and I also like the spider net sacs which you can put the figures in and hang from the tree. I also think the mushroom piece is pretty neat. The spiders themselves are pretty cool, they have a good shape and look to them and I like how you can adjust the legs on them. If any of you got the LotR Shelob lego set, think of these as miniatures of Shelob.

Overall this was a fun set to build, but only took about an hour or so to build. It has 298 pieces and cost me $29.99 at a local store. It was actually one of the more difficult sets to build just because a lot of the pieces are all black and are similar shape, it just took a little longer to build, thats all. I should mention there two moveable pieces in this set. First, there is pin you can pull and you can knock the larger tree over. And second, there is a little hole you can put a mini spider in and then push a brick to shoot the spider out.

The minifigures themselves are great, the hair pieces are nice, and I like Kili comes with double swords and Tauriel comes with double elf knives as well. Fili comes with a bow and arrow, and Legolas comes with one elf knife and a bow and arrow. For now, if you want these figures, this is the only set that has them.

If I had to pick a bad thing about this set is that I wish it came with more of the red leaf pieces to decorate the tree. It only came with two, and it makes the tree look bare, but maybe that was intentional, I havent seen what Mirkwood trees looks like in the Hobbit yet and we wont know until we see Part two in Desolation of Smaug. Thats right, this set is a preview set, you wont see this scene until the 2nd movie hits in Dec 2013. Anyways, I wish there were more red leaf pieces and instead of getting an extra bow and arrow or a couple of other pieces, i would have liked the leaves instead.

But other than that, this is a great set. Buy this if your a LotR/ Hobbit Lego fan and really like spiders or the mini figures. Out of all the Hobbit lego sets I own so far, this is probably my least favorite, the best going to An Unexpected Gathering and I like Riddles for the Ring better too. Overall I give this set 4.5 out of 5 stars, 4 minifigures, 2 spiders, a bunch of small unique pieces, but the lack of red leaves bring it down a notch.
