Behold, the ever-seeing eye of Sauron. The stronghold of Barad-dûr in Mordor is the home of this epic antagonist from The Lord of the Rings series.

Of course Frodo and Sam are there, venturing on their quest to destroy the one ring to rule them all.

This set will retail for $459, and goes on sale in June.
