How do I identify Goblin King?
Look for the BrickLink ID lor042 — it's the definitive identifier for this figure. Goblin King is made up of 7 parts including specialized accessories. The parts breakdown on this page shows each component with colors. If you have a loose figure and aren't sure what it is, the brick'em scanner can identify it from a photo in a few seconds.
What's the best way to sell Goblin King?
List it individually on BrickLink with the ID lor042 — buyers search by part number and will find it. Include clear photos showing condition. At $39.68, it's worth the time to list separately rather than bundling. If you have several Lord of the Rings figures, listing them all at once saves on the per-item effort.
Does condition matter for Goblin King?
At $39.68 average, yes. Buyers at this price point expect a complete figure with all accessories, no major scratches on printed elements, and tight joints. Minor play wear is generally acceptable, but cracked or heavily scratched torso prints will drop the price below average. If you have the figure new/sealed (averaging $51.01), keep it protected — the premium for mint condition is significant.
