Someone pick one up for me!!!!

 

[Elendil]

Just ordered this one. Can't wait for it to arrive.

 

[The Ween]

Got mine today! Too cute!

 

[Elendil]

Got a response about scale from Dave Tremont of Weta!

"We love doing the small Hobbit Holes. They are a different scale to Bad End but look fantastic next to each other."

 

[Petrolos]

oops, double post. See below!

 

[Petrolos]

Hmmm..too bad they're on a different scale. Would love to see Bag End and the new one next to each other!

Took a few shots today.

 

[The Josh]

Took a few more. Couldn't decide if I liked the previous ones or not.

Very nice shots Josh! Thanks for sharing. I have this too and am amazed by how detailed it is given the scale. Even Bilbo's little teeth is there! I can't wait for the other barrell riders!

 

[The Josh]

Thank ya!! No problem. Its a pretty darn cool piece and so much detail for it being so small. I am eager to see what they do with the others and may try to get them all if the money allows.

Meh................................


Still does nothing for me personally, it is like a half a finished piece, funny as with WETA doing all of the Hobbit work at the time, one would think they would have some MUST HAVES, yet I have nothing in my collection that is from WETA. I find myself liking more and more the props. Still waiting on that piece, guess I will have to live through you guys in here for that.................meh

 

[The Josh]

They have done some must haves for the rest of us. Sucks that you're waiting on that for you but I like how my Hobbit collection is growing.
