LEGO Themes have taken their origins from many places: the world around us, films, comics, television, scientific and exploratory adventures, our favorite cars and other machines. And some come straight from the company’s storytellers, bypassing the need for third party licensing.

We have a new collection arriving in June, encompassing a new form factor, and crossing multiple IPs: Book Nooks. The first revealed was the 10351 Sherlock Holmes Book Nook, bringing Victorian elegance to LEGO form; followed soon after by the 76450 Harry Potter Hogwarts Express Book Nook/Book Ends and today we can reveal that we shall also have one from 10367 The Lord of the Rings: Balrog Book Nook, in the form of the Bridge of Khaza Dûm, where Gandalf the Grey faced off against the dread creature, meeting his apparent doom.

Each of these properties were popular as printed words before they leapt to the Silver Screen, and those books are still loved today. These book nooks are designed to sit on your shelves between your favorite books, adding a little life and action to the storage space.

The Lord of the Rings: Balrog™ Book Nook will be released on June 1st 2025, and comes with 1201 pieces. It will be priced at AUD199.99 / 129,99 USD / 119,99 EUR / 109,99 GBP
