The Hobbit?

Anyone know if Canada is supposed to get The Hobbit figures?

Re: The Hobbit?

I'd suspect that we will be seeing them. Any reason to think that we won't be getting them?

Re: The Hobbit?

The Hobbit is a major blockbuster. I'm sure we'll see those figures.

That said, I don't particularly think they're very good.

Re: The Hobbit?

I haven't seen them yet but they wpould be hard pressed to latch the Toy Biz figures. Those were incredible.

Didn't stop us from not getting Avengers or Spider-Man 6" figures. But that's probably just because Walmart hates us for some reason, well, at least when it comes to Marvel figures and others brands not named Transformers.

That said, we should definitely get Hobbit figures. Both the 3 3/4" and 6" figures.

Re: The Hobbit?

I wonder if its not a mistake for all these companies to be doing the two different scales of figures.

Re: The Hobbit?

I think it's considerate of them (or maybe they just want more money). And if all these companies are still making 2 scales, something must be working well for both in order to make them worthwhile to make.

Re: The Hobbit?

I'm curious to see how well, both in sculpt and scale they fit in with my Toybiz LOTR collection.

Re: The Hobbit?

Saw some Hobbit figures at Broadway TRU

I think one of them was Legolas Greenleaf? Another one is Finbul and his Warg

I assume we'd get them, but just a little worried since it's notone of the bigger toy companies (Hasbro/Mattel). I've never got any ofn the LOTR figures... but for some reason I'm in to these Hobbit fiogs.
