Hidden behind Sauron’s flaming eye—which is surprisingly articulated, and can be rotated up and down as well as side to side—is an LED light brick to bathe the eye in red light. It’s a bit awkward, however: you have to hold down the button on the brick to keep it active, and honestly the light doesn’t add all that much to the actual excellent appearance of the Eye itself.
