Re: The Official "The Hobbit" movie thread

Hi guys,

When the first dwarf image was released I too was not entirely convinced but after the second one of Oin & Gloin was released
it feels better. These two look more like I have imagined dwarves should look like, going after Gimlis apperance (this is obviously
becasue it's Gimlis uncle and dad) and the LOTR intro with the dwarf lords and now I'm starting to like Dori, Nori & Ori as well.
As other have written PJ & crew has made a great job making them all so far quite distinct from each other, almost like they
come from different dwarf "cultures", or cities, which probably will be needed for any non-book readers (and perhaps for the
one-time or "occasional" readers as well).

Anyway, I have made my own composition of the two images released so far, with some small tweaks/fixes/brightening/cleanup
and thought I should share. Size is 16:10 proportional so great for use as wallpaper on a widescreen monitor.

Enjoy,

Hot Toys 12" figs, anyone?

- Hot Toys acquires Hobbit/LOTR license

- Hot Toys makes Gandalf the Grey and Bilbo Baggins from the Hobbit

- They design a brand new True Type for smaller characters.

- A year later, they announce LOTR figures

- Produce and remake Aragorn, Legolas, Boromir that better the Sideshow versions in ever way.


We wait for them to complete the Fellowship, but they never go back to it.

Still sounds good to me.

Really great job on the pic!

I think you have to make them distinct simply so you can recognize each on when on the screen. If they'd all looked somewhat like Gimli, it might lead to confusion.

Are they showing your picture on OneRing?

Let's try that again Tom

Re: The Official "The Hobbit" movie thread

All this hype makes me that much more upset that Sideshow never finished the Fellowship in 1/6.

Re: The Official "The Hobbit" movie thread

No, that's not mine. The Dwarves are put closer together on that one, which is nice and makes for a more group feeling,
but I didn't want to cover up Oin too much. The pic on OneRing is (also) really well made but mine is higher resolution
and much brighter so you can better study the fantastic details in the costumes

Did a quick and sloppy Photoshop hack job:

Now we're talkin'! Having them all together in context is gonna be epic!

Re: The Official "The Hobbit" movie thread

I'd rather SS would do these, to keep it somewhat consistent with the LOTR figures...

I'll be happy with any 1/6 figures from this movie, but I prefer Sideshow. I need a reason to buy their products again. Plus they are considerably cheaper.

Ideally, I would like to see Hot Toys help them like they did with Frodo and Sam.

I can't believe the people on Facebook that are complaining about the looks of the dwarves, or is it dwarfs.......anyway, I think they look awesome! Some are saying they don't know if they're going to go see this now.

Probably the same people that have spent countless hrs whining about the green tint on the FOTR Blu instead of just enjoying life.

If we're talking Tolkien then it's Dwarves but both can and are used.....which means your both right and correct.

They are the same ones that will bust a nut and do a complete 180 when the first trailer comes out.

Re: The Official "The Hobbit" movie thread

Fili and Kili pics up on TORn

I really like the look of these two. Especially not having the full Dwarf beards and such just yet since they're young Dwarves.
