He doesn't even have the daggers either. There's a few little things that I'm surprised they missed.

Unique helmets for Moria orcs, Boromir's horn, Uruks with cross bows (just take the existing ones from like Chewbacca) and a few other things to make the sets more exciting and add variety.

They aren't going to be loaded to the brim like they were in the film, but I do think the quiver isn't asking too much. Heck, they even skipped that on Hawkeye too. The daggers were always his back up weapon anyway. Its just too bad they did a one-and-done with Helms Deep. We could have used Helms Deep Armor Legolas too and some back up elves for Haldir. As big of a set that is, I felt we didn't get all of the figures we should have. A second expansion set would just feel like a cash grab at this point.
 
Then I'm surprised they didn't give Aragorn different printing for Helms Deep. Something to differentiate it from Weathertop. Could have given Gimli a cape from the Shelob set that Frodo and Sam has as well.
 
Just got this one...looks good

Does it feel like a $70 set? From what I've been able to see, it looks more like a $50 set (and the Goblin King a $70 one). I know the LotR sets were overpriced, but these seem even more so for what you get. Bagend is just too iconic though so I guess they felt they could get away with it :dunno

I like it...6 figures and at just over 10 cents a piece...I got it from amazon for 69 no tax free shipping...I like it....The last build that felt like this was the Monster Fighters Haunted House...of course on a much larger scale...I love the odds and end pieces here for exterior and interior of Bag End...some rare pieces too like door and door/window frames etc

I just picked up Bag End.

Going to sell off the minifigures (might keep Bilbo) and throw Frodo, Sam, Gandalf and the cart in there.
