Hello and welcome to the first review of 2015! I’m still having a hard time training myself to type out 2015 instead of 2014 – it’ll probably take a few weeks for me to get used to the fact that we’re in 2015. Resuming the reviews of the Hobbit sets, today we’re going to take…
Review: LEGO The Hobbit 79015 Witch-King Battle
I caught the final film in Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit trilogy – The Battle of the Five Armies when it premiered in Australian cinemas on Boxing Day.
