The Fellowship Gathering Place - This iconic place is pretty accurate to the movie. It comes with a table where the Fellowship put the One Ring (The ring is also included) that surrounded by 3 cool swiveling chairs and a simple tree with dark orange and sand green leave pieces. There is also a throwing mechanism to reenact the scene when Gimli tossed after trying to destroy the ring with his battle axe.

Rivendell Structure - The Rivendell structure part is really well designed. It has very nice new arches parts. Two grey microfigure, A weapon rack, and a tree are also included to it.
