Yes, I liked all the other sets, especially Edoras and the Hornburg. And the Gate of Mordor with the trolls opening it was very effective, too.

Rivendell *is* beautiful on its own way, I just find it much too decadent. It matches the brooding, Man-hating, fading movie!Elrond (save his warrior days at the beginning), but it's too much "Sezession" for me. While I find the artform decorative, I somehow can't associate it to Tolkien's Elves. Something closer to medieval codex illustrations would be more my idea. But that's a matter of taste, I think.
