They didn't leave out Thorin, I believe ths minifig lineup is from the bag end set, Not just randomly put together.

But EVERY dwarf was present at Bag End!

So you want the price to be boosted 50 bucks for 15 minifigs? :laugh: TLG's being realistic, they can't do every dwarf in one set.

Well, Thorin has to be in it! He's the leader, and is absolutely crucial to the first scene!

There are quite a few characters crucial to the Balin’s Tomb scene that aren’t included in the LEGO set.

Plus I don't want twenty of every dwarf in the Hobbit. I would rather they only have each of them in 1-2 sets and use the minifigure space for other figs like more goblins or baddies.

We could also take the appearance of Dwalin, Bombur, Bofur and Balin as a hint to some of the dwarves who might have more important roles in that scene of the film. Its like with the Moria set: all of the Fellowship was there, but who had the most memorable parts in the scene, such as Pippin and the well or Legolas fighting the troll. Also, I think some of these dwarves might get thrown in sets just because they need to go somewhere, like Merry in the Weathertop set.

Well, I could see Lego not wanting to have the 3 main characters of the story (Bilbo, Gandalf, Thorin) in the same set :sceptic: , unless it's an expensive set.

And yes, I agree, some dwarves (ESPECIALLY Bofur, who's played by James Nesbitt, very well known actor in the UK) might have expanded roles in the film.

I have just finished reading the book, so it's fresh in my mind, and

Pardon me but the "Somewhere to discuss release dates and availability" is in the discussion thread for the theme. There is absolutely no reason for a second thread for this.

I'm locking this thread.
