Incidentally, I'm very close to jumping on the "best set ever" bandwagon. Frodo is inside because Bilbo is outside to greet Gandalf and Balin (re-creating a scene from the novel). I also used some bonus cheese slopes to smooth out a few tree brances. This was done entirely using pieces that came with the set (including some extras, such as the brown studs for the shelf bottoms). ItemName: Lego An Unexpected Gathering, ItemType: Set, ItemNo: 79003-1, Buy and sell LEGO parts, Minifigs and sets, both new or used from the world's largest online LEGO marketplace. The obvious trade-off is that you lose the party scene - but that wasn't a major loss for me. It also gives Bilbo a high stool so he can reach his writing desk. All in all: An almost perfect little set, that has been granted a singular honour by my wife: It is the one of very few sets that get to be prominently displayed all the time in our house. I think this maintains a pleasing interior that keeps with the feel of Bag End. The minifigs in An Unexpected Gathering'were no exception: Six wonderful minifigs with abundant details even underneath beard and cloak pieces. This is hardly a stroke of brilliance on my part, but here's a subtle space-saving MOD for "An Unexpected Gathering," such as you might do if you wanted to display it flush against a flat wall, and/or (as in my situation) on a narrower shelf.
