What's in the Box?

Gandalf™ the Grey

The great wizard Gandalf was sent to guide the peoples of Middle-earth in their quest to destroy Sauron for good. After discovering the Ring in the Shire, Gandalf set about formulating a plan to see it destroyed, and the Evil of Sauron finally defeated.

Aragorn™

Heir to the throne of Gondor, Aragorn is a peerless warrior who is introduced to Frodo by Gandalf and joins the Fellowship in order to see the One Ring destroyed for good.

Legolas™ Greenleaf

Legolas was the captain of the King’s Guard, tasked with hunting down Orc invaders that entered his father’s realm. Although Legolas could not match his father’s ability with a blade, he was still an exceptional warrior.

Gimli™

The dwarf Gimli is assigned to assist Frodo in his quest to destroy the One Ring by the Council of Elrond. However, due to an ancestral feud between their races, there is often friction between him and the elf, Legolas. Despite this, he is a loyal and ferocious warrior.

Boromir™

The eldest son of the Steward of Gondor, Boromir was arguably the greatest warrior in the Fellowship. Sent to Rivendell following his father's prophetic visions, Boromir sought to use the Ring as a weapon against Sauron.

Frodo Baggins™

It was in Rivendell that the Hobbit, Frodo, made the decision to carry the Ring, inherited from his cousin Bilbo, to Mordor and cast it into the fires of Mount Doom, thus ending its power forever. With him are eight companions, collectively known as The Fellowship of the Ring.

Samwise Gamgee™

Originally a gardener, the Hobbit, Sam, was drawn into the adventure to destroy the One Ring after eavesdropping on conversation between Frodo and Gandalf. He is a brave and loyal companion, and an integral member of the Fellowship.

Meriadoc 'Merry' Brandybuck™

Despite initial impressions to the contrary, Merry is a Hobbit possessed of remarkable intelligence as well as bravery. Indeed, he was among the first of the group that would become the Fellowship to be aware of the One Ring’s existence – and powers.

Peregrin 'Pippin' Took™

"Cousin of Merry, Pippin is also a Hobbit who was part of a conspiracy to accompany Frodo on his quest to Mordor. However, there is a possibility that his carelessness could be the reason the Fellowship finds themselves surrounded by Moria’s beasts…

“Fool of a Took”, indeed!"

Moria™ Goblins

Moria Goblins are small, mean-spirited creatures that scuttle through mountain tunnels with amazing dexterity, attacking, destroying and consuming intruders that venture into their dark realm.

The 12 in this box are armed with a mix of deadly weapons, with four armed with spears, four with bows, and four with shields.

Cave Troll

Cave Trolls can be found within many of the caverns and tunnels of the Misty Mountains – often fighting alongside Moria Goblins, their great strength the ideal complement to the teeming Goblin hordes, smashing aside any foes, their thick leathery hides protecting them from incoming blows.
