As seen on LEGO Ideas: Dale by Anduin1710

Little nod to a lego ideas project that catches the eye with this version of Dale, the city of Northern men destroyed by Smaug and rebuilt by Bard.

I really like this creation which brings a little "density" and consistency to a world where LEGO has often been content with pieces of wall or isolated pillars to symbolize a construction.

with 1340 pieces and 6 minifigs, you get something relatively realistic and marketable at a reasonable price. But I think everyone has understood that LEGO wants the products in the LEGO Ideas range to remain in a price bracket well below the potential retail price of a project like this.

Even though we all know here that there is almost no chance that this project will ever be commercialized, it still deserves to collect its quota of supporters because it defends the idea that The Hobbit is also a matter of walls, towers, bridges and massive constructions ... An aspect often overlooked by LEGO on this range.

(Thank you to everyone who reported this project to me)
