LEGO Lord of the Rings #30211 Uruk-Hai with Ballista Review

Theme: Lord of the Rings

S/N: #30211
Year: 2012
Pieces: 21
Minifig: 1

Polybag
Will do a quick review on this as this is a small polybag set. The front only shows the serial number and the picture of the Uruk-hai with his little ballista while at the back of the polybag are just words. It was a small and simple set like all the other polybag set and this one is very suitable for army building (if you manage to get it cheap of course).

Content
Below are all the parts that were pour out from the polybag, not much of a pieces and there is one instruction sheet that teach you to build the ballista.

Accessory
The only weapon included in this set is the large halberd which usually this kind of armored Uruk-hai use in the playset that has been released by TLG.

Uruk-hai
Here's the minifigs, which are the same as the one you will get in playset, nothing to complain about the quality. So this Uruk-hai have two different face printed on this head and the torso are printed on the both side. The leg are printed too. Is a good thing that there are more prints which is more detailed.

Ballista
This one a quick and simple build and comes with a playability which I do not need to further mention. Small and is quite ok. I just don't like the 2x4 plate which makes it looks big.

Completed model
This set do not comes with any spares, as you can see from the content that there are no small parts in this set. A good set for kids to play as it will not cost you much at the moment and is was a quick build. This may fill up your urge for LEGO too when you cannot afford any of the playset.

Playability: 4/10 Flick-fire. . .
Building experience: 4/10 Cannot expect much from this.
Parts: 6/10 Cool helmet and armor, halberd and droid arms.
Value for money: 6/10 Get it for RM20+, not really a good price but affordable.
Overall: 5/10 Average, the only good part is that it is affordable otherwise Uruk-hai minifigs can get at RM15+ with halberd.
