Lego Lord of the Rings toys march to Mordor in Summer 2012 [update]

Update: It looks like this is only for actual physical Lego sets, based on the New Line Cinemas adaptations of The Lord of the Rings series and next year's The Hobbit. We apologize for the erroneous report.

Original story:

J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings franchise is the latest to receive a Lego adaptation, a new teaser site suggests. All we've been given is a "Summer 2012" timeframe, which we don't get because summer in The Shire is, like, the best time. The best time. Why would any Hobbit leave?

We've reached out to Warner Bros. for more information. Right now, we're assuming Lego Lord of the Rings is coming to every platform imaginable, but until we hear back we'll leave it open.
