The Precious. The Precious!
Wait, wrong elves.
I own this one. I don't think I've had it assembled since 2016 though.
Is the crystal precious or is the mine precious?
Fancy

Yes
Elves was a gem though, wasn't it? I didn't buy enough of them. Particularly these second-year sets that introduced the dragons.
That egg is epic. But so are the aftermarket prices for them!
Brickset says this set was only available for 6 months, so maybe short shelf lives aren’t such a recent thing?
I got couple of launch sets for my daughter but seeing that she didn't show much interest to Lego, I didn't follow the line. They still look nice to me.
It's kind of ironic how I'll never be able to read "precious" anywhere without thinking of Gollum...
Someone sneak a Gollum minifig in that scene, stat!
Doctor Octopus would also be acceptable but only if what they’re mining is tritium
