Description

The line work on the characters is all of a finer gauge and relatively simplified compared to a decade ago. In the meantime, the increased use of gold and silver metallic inks increases the detail, particularly amongst the elven folk. As a yellowist, I find the new hobbit legs are a turn for the worse. If there were easily available equivalents with yellow feet, I wouldn't mind so much. But the odds of LEGO ever producing K2 (dual-moulded) dark reddish-brown short legs with yellow feet for an in-house line are slim :~( " Andy • Brand • Chunk • Data • Elgin Perkins • Francis Fratelli • Jake Fratelli • Mama Fratelli • Mikey • Mouth • Mr. Walsh • Mrs. Walsh • Octopus • One-Eyed Willy • Rosalita • Sheriff • Sloth • Stef • Troy Perkins

His eyes just look too youthful.

I think I definitely like better the new versions of Boromir, Merry and Pippin; aside from several small details feeling more authentic too, their new expressions also feel to me like they capture the movie portrayals of the characters more accurately. Elrond and Legolas too; I like better that Elrond's crown(?) is printed on his head this time, and while I wasn't convinced by Legolas' new design at first, when comparing the two, I feel like his original minifigure's expression looks uncharacteristically severe and disapproving, so for me the new version works better. The dual-moulded legs definitely improve all the Hobbits, too.

The most significant difference between the original Hobbits and their modern equivalents is the use of dual-moulded legs, representing their bare feet. Additionally, the variation between these torsos shows how LEGO printing has developed, with crisper lines. The helmet is interesting, as metallic gold replaces bronze in some areas. This blend of colours looks wonderful, but I wish the moulded armour panels from the 2012 helmet had been retained for the new one. Also, the helmets are interchangeable, despite the bushy beards underneath.Monkie Kid 80054 Megapolis City: 10 Reasons That This Middle-Aged AFOL Is Excited! November 7, 2023 In The Lord of the Rings trilogy, Gimli is portrayed by John Rhys-Davies who also provided the voice of Treebeard. In addition, Davis also played Sallah in the Indiana Jones films and made an uncredited cameo as Glóin in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. There we have all of the figures included in the set. Most of the designated characters offer varying degrees of improvement on a previous figure, although the new Sam and Aragorn figures are more consistent with their appearances at Rivendell, compared to the original versions (Aragorn in the Wild, and Sam as he appeared at Ciruth Ungel).
