said we should do for future things

I can't judge your MOC, but it's a very nice choice; Tom Bombadil is
our far far top favorite character of the whole saga in our whole family here.
Thank you.

thanks for looking! And Tom's also a favorite of mine. I can't figure
out why they left him out of the film.

  I can't figure out why they left him out of the film.

You know why: he's alone in the wild with bees and animals and he doesn't
care and isn't afraid of anyone.

Gandalf says that it is unwise to consider Tom as having power over the Ring,
and that rather, "the Ring has no power over him...". He suggests that
Tom would not find the Ring to be very important, and so might simply misplace
it.


In short, he's powerful, peaceful and isn't interested or affected by
any power.

It's not the type of character movie makers want to promote

I imagine it would have added too much to the run time without advancing the
plot very much. Although I guess it could have explained some things, like where
the hobbits' swords came from and why Merry's was so deadly to the Witch-king.

There's really no point in entering these Lego contests as a novice builder
(in terms of creativity and such) and not having lots of $$$. Look at the entries.
The average person cannot compete against professional builders with tons of
parts.

why not try studio ? Besides, I entered and I had little experience. I don't
expect to win but I don't have enough money to buy the set so it's worth
a shot.

Thanks! Mine didn't get submitted until the last minute so it was a real
relief when they accepted it.
