  10. Erin says:

    I get the feeling that this collection is going to make my wallet cry.

  11. Jenn says:

    “Coming soon.” But how soon? I really want a Martin Freeman as Bilbo. REALLY. (There, you’ve made me resort to caplocks to prove it.)

  12. John Romero says:

    Thank you very much for your products. I really love them! And, what about releasing another Galadriel´s premium format figure or just remake the one you sold out? It´s an extraordinary figure, the best of the lord of the rings line, and I couldn´t bought it yet, so, I really need it to be re-released. Love it! And about the hobbit, it would be nice seeing an sculpture for the White Council together, or just one by one at a great price :) or a pack of the 4 figures! Oh, that would be fantastic! Please, can you do this? Dol-gundur, Radagast and Thranduil would be would be as nice as the said too. :) Thank you.

  13. Ross says:

    You guys never cease to design astute statues, with the character stances not only ideal but original, with every mannerism radiant with the poise of glory. I would suggest making an Azog bust, a Radagast statue of him on his sled with his rabbits taking him over a steep hill, Possibly one of Bilbo and Golem, and maybe a couple more busts of the dwarves. Obviously one of an enraged yet frightened Thorin equipped with a piece of tree for a shield should be made also.

  14. Ru says:

    There is but one statue from the Hobbit that many are awaiting. I have been saving for it since the announcement of the movie. It will surpass the Balrog for sheer wow factor. I cannot wait to see what Sideshow does for Smaug!

  15. MMM says:

    Bookends please!!!

  16. Stas says:

    When we can see concept of statues?

  17. Bob Ronne says:

    Dear misters, please make a toy of that bad mutha one handed monsta! He’s hard as nails him.

  18. Bill says:

    A little out of character for sideshow but would love to see/buy a couple of those lanterns the hobbits used in the mountain cave before they were abducted.

  19. Ashmeriel says:

    Oh, and one more thing… I don’t know what people want out of movies anymore… but The Hobbit was absolutely spectacular. The most fun I’ve had since “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.”

  20. Ashmeriel says:

    Man this is the best news since discovering Jackson was back on The Hobbit! I CAN’T WAIT! I have been shopping for Tolkien memorabilia and it all sucks except for the stuff from Sideshow! Can’t wait!

  21. Susiv says:

    Would love to see a King Thranduil statue!!!

  22. Daniel says:

  26. Kevin says:

    Thank goodness you guys are back in the game on this one! We were missing you from the Hobbit Line.

  27. ORKRIST says:

    PF Azog the Defiler holding in his hand the head of King Dwarf Thror!

  28. Noel says:

    Can’t wait to collect all the dwarves! I’ve got the entire collection of the Fellowship + more, but I want the collection of the dwarves + Bilbo!!!!

  29. NastyHobbit says:

    Let’s be honest here. Sideshow’s LOTR licenced products are superior to those produced by any other company and I don’t see that trend changing where Hobbit-related collectibles are concerned. At least now Hobbit collectors will have the option of obtaining true limited edition Hobbit collectibles [from Sideshow], or they can stick with the “let’s flood the market”/”dime a dozen” open edition variety being produced by Weta.

  30. Dennis Notten says:

    That’s very good news, but not for my bank account :( Hope you guys can make an environment Of Dol Guldur, Looked absolutely amazing! But to be honest, everything looked amazing! Thanks for bringing us back to Middle Earth!

  31. Phil Sierra says:

    Premium Formats please!!!

  32. thorin93 says:

    nice hope that there are new 1:6 scale figures of all the main characters even Gollum. thorin oakenshield for me. would be great.

  33. DJ says:

    All things considered,,, I would suggest Sideshow focus mainly on Hobbit Premium Formats,, possibly 1:6 scale and a diorama or two.

  34. HobbitFan says:

    I must admit I was a bit bummed out at the prospect of having to “settle” for another companies Hobbit collectibles with their smaller scale statues, cheap black bases, and collectible-killing open editions, so this news has just made my day! Can’t wait to see what SS has in store for us!!

  35. Timdalf says:

    Congrats, guys! Just got back from Mythmoot in Maryland (see Mythgard.org for details)… and this good news pops up!

  36. dislodge says:

    Oh no. I’m still paying off the debt from the LOTR line.

  37. ChrisBS says:

    Cant wait to see if they make Azog the Defiler. He looks awesome!

  38. Darth Snoopy says:

    This is AWESOME news! :)

  39. a u t o b o t says:

    nine years after..i saw, i heard again, some familiar places/sounds!!!
    feelings were indescribably!!!

  40. Informatix says:

    Finally !!!
    I thought that Sideshow would never get the license.
    I just hope that that have a license to produce figurines to enlage their maquette line. This is most definately the best line they ever produced (to my opinion of cource). I just hope that the base they use now, and the size of the figurines will be the same. That way they would fit in perfectly with the LOTR statues.

    Another interesting license if the ‘Premium format’ license (but I’m not really interested in that line (but many others will).

    I thought Weta had an exclusive license, and that we would never get Sideshow figurines. I’m so glad that tey got the license.

    Congrats Sideshow.
    Hope to here from yoy soooooooon !!!

  41. astro666 says:

    It will be interesting to see what kinds of products Sideshow will come out with for this license.

  42. bill59 says:

    Congrats Sideshow…great news…can’t wait to see what you guys produce…I’m in.
