Re: Weta's The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey : Button of Bilbo Baggins™

Alas SDCC is nigh, are we ME fans gonna get a treat? We'll find out soon. But one thing's for sure, Weta has announced another barrel rider. I wonder who it's gonna be. I'm guessing a Thorin barrel rider. I love this Bilbo figure! Can't wait for the others.

I'm expecting big things at Weta. I agree that the next barrel rider will be Thorin. I'm hoping he's holding that Orc sword we saw in the trailer.

Yep, I'm eager with anticipation. Thorin would be great! Eh, Josh I just realised I posted this in the wrong thread. Could you transfer it to the Bilbo Barrel Rider thread? Thanks.

Got mine today. Pretty cool little item.

Man, that is tiny.... Still, I'd love to have something Hobbit in my collection.

 

[The Josh]

It's small but cool. The nice thing is they're pretty cheap and don't take up much space.

I thought the water had more of a wet look in early pics? Is it all different in hand?

Yeah, it was toned down a bit in production I think.

Josh is an enabler. He's trying to "make" me buy that UK LOTR book set.

If you post more pictures of those books, I might be more inclined to jump off this ledge.
