What do you guys think about The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth Commander precons?

The Lord of the Rings: Tales of Middle-earth™ Commander Decklists

What is their power level, are they well balanced? Which one do you plan to buy?

My goal is to get the Mordor and food decks. Then tweak them to be a Sarumon vs Treebeard set of duel decks. I'm hoping that can keep them relatively on the same power level.
I do think I would have liked if they introduced a partner mechanic like the stranger things one. Where you could partner, but only with members of the fellowship.
- Could literally have been "Fellowship of the Ring" as the name for the mechanic.
I'm not sure about power levels, but I've ordered the Riders of Rohan and the Elven Council decks. I really love the theme for both of these and am excited to see how they play out of the box and with some potential tweaks from the set booster box I've grabbed.
Do you have plans to pick one of them up?
- I only got the Sauron one and will upgrade it with Sauron, The Dark Lord as commander and some other cards from the set.
I'm planning on getting the Food and Fellowship deck, or getting the blue-green elf deck. I'm new to the format and I don't have any commander decks, so I guess one of these is going to be my first!
You said you already tried to order yours - are pre-orders open at local game stores? I'm going to be at the pre-release tomorrow, so I guess I'll try to order mine then!
