Okay, this is going to sound crazy, but after having a marathon the other day watching all three extended Hobbit movies in one day, I've decided I want to get the 3.75" figures. I just love these movies so much, and I really want the figures, but I'm just reminded of what a sad, wasted opportunity this line was. Going back and reading a lot of the posts didn't help either. I have all the (ha ha, "all," as in all 6 or whatever it is) 6" figures, but there are at least a few different figures in the smaller scale not available in the larger format. And sadly, it doesn't look like there's even that much to get. This is where you all come in. I found this post a while back, and I think this is all I need to get, and with the Mirkwood set, I can even skip two more of the two packs. So is this all I need to get one of each figure:
Dwalin/Balin
Baggins/Gollum
Gandalf/Bolg
Fimbul the goblin with a Worg
Thorin/Goblin King
Grinnah
Mirkwood gift set
Azog (foreign release)
Radagast (foreign release)
Invisible Bilbo (foreign release?)
Is that really all I need? 18 figures for three movies? I looked at several checklists but they don't seem comprehensive, like they kind of gave up when they saw the line was doomed! I don't know how much of a pain is to get the Radagast and Azog, but I might as well go "all in." I'm assuming the Azog and Radagast come on closed hanger tab cards as opposed to the open J-pegs we have in the U.S. And I believe the Invisible Bilbo is a foreign exclusive as well?
And I'm reminded of how badly I wanted that "Company of Thorin Oakenshield" gift set that was to have all of the dwarves plus Gandalf and Bilbo. God that thing was beautiful. I hate TBD so much.
