The Hobbit action figures

[Zulithe]

Now available for pre-order on amazon and other e-retailers. Street date is around Oct 1st when you'll be able to find them in Target, Toys R Us or wherever you prefer.

So, what do you think? Saddest part is I'm not sure these look as good as the Lord of the Rings figures from Toy Biz, yet they cost A WHOLE LOT more. Correct me if I am wrong but I think those figures were 6.99 or 7.99 right? And that was for the 6". Now they are DOUBLE that in less than ten years time. I think that's quite a bit greater than inflation should dictate -__-

So double the price for figures that don't even look as good. Fantastic.

Anyway, here we go. I'm still probably going to pick up some of these.

-- 3.75" line, wave 1, $16.99 USD 2-packs; $34.99 5-pack --

Hero Pack - Bilbo, Thorin, Dwalin, Kili and Fili Figure Box Set - Image

Bilbo Baggin and Gollum 2-pack - Image

Balin and Dwalin 2-pack - Image

Kili and Fili 2-pack - Image

-- 6" Collector line, $16.99 USD ea --

Bilbo Baggins - Image

Gandalf The Grey - Image

Thorin Oakenshield - Image

That appears to be all of the ones revealed.

Buying these is kind of tough. The 5 figure box is a nice deal, but doesn't come with the entire wave. If you want every figure in the wave, you are forced to buy duplicates no matter how you slice it.
