NEWS: Hobbit Pre-Orders Reveal More Toy Details


The latest tie-in toys for the upcoming big-screen adaptations of  The Hobbit have just gone-up on pre-order and casting a quick glance over the list reveals a little more about what we can expect when the toys land at retail later this year.

Note that the following may contain minor spoilers.

Sadly whilst we still have no images of the toys (or indeed the movie characters), Big Bad Toy Stores' pre-order listing includes the following items:
  • 3.75'' Goblin King Playset ($44.99)
  • 3.75'' Deluxe Beast Pack Series 1 - Goblin King with Thorin ($32.99)
  • 3.75'' Collector Pack - Bilbo, Thorin, Dwalin, Kili, Fili ($29.99)
  • 3.75'' Beast Pack Series 1 - Fimbul (Orc) with Worg* ($19.99)
  • 3.75'' Deluxe Battle Pack Series 1 - Bolg & Gandalf ($17.99)
  • 3.75'' Figure Two-Pack Series 01 - Bilbo Baggins & Gollum ($14.99)
  • 3.75'' Figure Two-Pack Series 01 - Legolas & Tauriel ($14.99)
  • 3.75'' Figure Series 01 - Bilbo Baggins ($9.99)
  • 3.75'' Figure Series 01 - Gandalf the Grey ($11.99)
  • 3.75'' Figure Series 01 - Thorin Oakenshield ($11.99)
  • 3.75'' Figure Series 01 - Legolas ($11.99)
  • 3.75'' Figure Series 01 - Grinnah ($11.99)
  • 6'' Deluxe Collector Figure - Azog ($21.99)
  • 6'' Figure Series 01 - Thorin Oakenshield ($14.99)
  • 6'' Figure Series 01 - Legolas ($17.99)
  • 6'' Figure Series 01 - Tauriel  ($17.99)
  • 6'' Figure Series 01 - Bilbo Baggins ($17.99)
  • 6'' Figure Series 01 - Gandalf the Grey ($17.99)
It's interesting to note that manufacturer of the toys, The Bridge Direct, appears to be trying to hit a number of bases with their figures. There's a 6'' and 3.75'' line but also note that the Azog figure is listed as a ''Deluxe Collector Figure.'' Given that Azog is a whopping seven Dollars more expensive than the ''regular'' 6'' figures, I think it's safe to assume that this isn't simply a typo and there are (at least) two 6'' figure lines.
