Fans are expecting Minas Tirith to be priced at $649.99 when it launches on June 1 \u2014 so begin fasting on lembas bread now if you want to pick it up.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-theme=\"light\">\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\" lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Lego Icons Lord of the Rings: Minas Tirith instructions first look image, thanks to <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/the_brick_news?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">@the_brick_news<\/a> <\/p>\n<p>$649.99 \/ 1st June 2026<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Lego?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#Lego<\/a> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Legonews?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#Legonews<\/a> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Legoleaks?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#Legoleaks<\/a> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Lordoftherings?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">#Lordoftherings<\/a> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/mliAkMCiQg\" class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pic.twitter.com\/mliAkMCiQg<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Brick Built Blogs (@BlogsBrick) <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BlogsBrick\/status\/2046002951760527684?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"link jsx-1337145738 jsx-3925284146 underlined\" data-cy=\"styled-link\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">April 19, 2026<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">What do all those bricks get you? As you might expect, the set&#8217;s main Minas Tirith design is scaled down to fit a complete version of the iconic city, from its front gates to prominent cliff edge, and towering white Citadel.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The reverse of the build, meanwhile, features a clever cut-away to the Citadel&#8217;s interior, where minifigures of Pippin and Denethor can recreate Return of the King&#8217;s memorable tomato-popping song scene. Indeed, minifigures of the two characters are reportedly both included, alongside King Aragorn (spoiler!), Gandalf, Faramir, four Gondor soldiers and Shadowfax the horse.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">While LEGO is yet to make its Minas Tirith design official, this has been one of the most widely-leaked and highly-anticipated sets of recent years \u2014 with these new images coming from instruction manuals posted online by fans. The design matches one that LEGO itself accidentally showcased via Instagram previously, before pulling offline.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">With June 1 approaching, we&#8217;re expecting LEGO to imminently make its Minas Tirith set official \u2014 stay tuned for more when that happens.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\"><em>Tom Phillips is IGN&#8217;s News Editor.
