The LEGO Cave Troll (lor027) is a Lord of the Rings minifigure worth $73.46 on average, released in 2012 and found in 1 set. It has 6 individual parts. By value, it ranks #8 of 149 Lord of the Rings minifigures and #166 of 18,042 priced LEGO minifigures overall.

Cave Troll (lor027) is one of the higher-value LEGO Lord of the Rings minifigures, selling for an average of $73.46 on BrickLink. It was exclusive to a single set, The Mines of Moria (2012). That exclusivity is the main driver behind the price. Once the set retired, the only way to get this figure was the secondary market. Sealed/new copies command a significant premium at $112.67, which is worth noting if you have one in original packaging.
The LEGO Cave Troll (lor027) is worth $73.46 used and $112.67 new/sealed on average, based on BrickLink sales data from the last 6 months. Prices range from $17.00 to $95.53 depending on condition. This is above the Lord of the Rings theme average of $26.39. Completeness (all accessories included) and print condition are the biggest factors affecting price.
Cave Troll appears in 1 set: The Mines of Moria (9473-1, ~$375.33). Since it was only in one set, it can't be sourced elsewhere. That scarcity is reflected in the price.
Look for the BrickLink ID lor027. It's the definitive identifier for this figure. Cave Troll is made up of 6 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.
At $73.46, this figure is worth listing individually on BrickLink where LEGO buyers specifically search by ID. Take clear photos showing all sides and accessories. BrickLink listings at or slightly below the 6-month average tend to sell within a week or two. eBay is a good secondary option if you want a wider audience, but expect slightly lower prices after fees.
At $73.46 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 $112.67), keep it protected. The premium for mint condition is significant.
