WETA WORKSHOP Bilbo Baggins - Polystone

Like all Hobbits, bilbo enjoyed the simple pleasures of good food and genial Company, but where his kind generally eschewed excitement and avoided the outside world, The enigmatic master of bag end was reputed to be recklessly adventurous. A friend to elves and companion of wizards, they said he was. Bag end, so it was whispered, was full of dwarf gold. Bilbo delighted in the rumours that swirled about him and confounding the ambitions of his avaricious relatives, but on this day, looking back upon his years, His gaze wandered ever to the horizon, searching for the faint glimpse of snow upon some far off peak. The fire of adventure sparked and crackled once again in his old heart."Expertly sculpted by Brigitte wuest, lead sculptor on the Lord of the Rings trilogy, bilbo Baggins is an iconic addition to your WETA Workshop miniatures collection.This is an open edition Piece.

Review: Realistic likeness - Small figure but very realistic and the price is right. Mini statue and box arrived intact with no dings or dents. Review: Perfect gift! - Great purchase! Found this gem for my hubby to celebrate his, what feels like, hundred and eleventh birthday and it did not disappoint. Bilbo is his favorite character, so this was perfect! It fits nicely on his computer desk and goes with all of his other lotr themed decor. The details and quality are worth the purchase. It was very well packaged in its own collectable box and surrounded with styrofoam.
