Yes. When they started shooting Lord of the Rings they had already 3 years of preproduction done which means weapons and sets and buildings and all. The hobbit was a constant race against the clock. And they tried to make the goblins non CGI with animatronic heads. But it simply didn’t work and looked good enough. I still feel that the CGI heads in the end are also ugly but what gives.
