Back at it!

I had some family issues unexpectedly come up (as opposed to the expected type?), and I was unable to do anything with this blog. My time and money were better spent elsewhere, but I am glad that part of my life is past me and its time to get back to the hobby I love.

I know I missed a writing about info that was revealed in the past few months, such as Azog being the San Diego Comic Con exclusive for this year:

Still no word if there will be some form of Azog still available at stores, maybe with fewer accessories or if this will the only sighting of Azog we get this wave.

We also got a look at Thranduil in the 3 inch line at The Bridge Direct's booth at SDCC (Sadly no elk mount was shown!), along with a first look at the new packaging style for the next Hobbit movie coming out in December, "The Desolation of Smaug".

The new packaging was shown on a Legolas figure that will be releasing in this new wave, but it seems to be the same Legolas that was released in wave 1. 

Hopefully I can get some readers back here once I start posting a bit, so stay tuned for the fun!

P.S. I also put together a very quickly done video of my updated collection. It's not the best, but it will do until I can get some work done on the blog.

The Bridge Direct Semi Explains Wave 2

When The Bridge Direct released a recent announcement on wave two of The Hobbit action figures, many not only spotted that the wave had been pushed back, but also saw it was missing many figures we were recently shown at toy fairs. I contacted them to see if they could shed some light on the next wave of figures. Below is my question and their response.

WinO: Recently you announced your second wave of figures, that will be releasing in October. Previously though, you had shown some figures at a few toy fairs that were not in your recent announcement. I was wondering if we were still going to see those figures in this next wave or if they were pushed back to be released at a later date.

The Bridge Direct: Due to the ever changing retail we pushed back our release date on our Wave 2 and also added new characters and assortments. Wave 2 will have new packaging to coincide with the release of The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug.

This will be available on shelf at retail October 15, 2013.

Thank you for supporting our line, we truly appreciate our fans!

Thank you,

Customer Service

Even though this doesn't fully confirm it, they did say they "added new characters and assortments", which would mean they kept the ones they previously had shown. Hopefully we get pictures of the full lineup soon, so we can go back to waiting as unpatiently as possible.

The Bridge Direct Announces The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug Lineup

The Bridge Direct has revealed their figure lineup for the next movie in a press release. The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug figures will be hitting store shelves on October 15th, a few months before the movie's release in December. The reveal did include surprises and left some questions that will have to be answered. Previously, expectations called for a summer to fall release of a second wave for the first movie, with the first wave for movie two hitting after. There is no word when or if that second wave for the first movie will be coming, but some of the figures that were expected to be part of that wave have been announced here for the second movie.

Also in the reveal was the figure for the Elvenking himself, Thranduil, and the shape-shifter Beorn. Although no pictures of either were shown. We also received confirmation of the already rumored San Diego Comic Con exclusive figure for this years event. Here is the press release from The Bridge Direct:

The Bridge Direct Working on Wave 2 Release Date

Earlier I posted a message from The Bridge Direct's Facebook page, stating a summer release for wave two of the Hobbit Figures, but there is still some uncertainty. After many people at this years New York Toy Fair heard of an October or November release for wave two, some fans took to Facebook for clarification.


The Bridge Direct posted this reply on one of the comments:

"Hey guys - we are working with our retail partners to confirm on shelf dates. We are hoping for summer availability but no later than October, about 8 weeks before DoS opens in theaters. Stay tuned for more details!"

Even if they are able to secure a summer release, it would appear to many fans that they are shooting for a one wave a movie schedule, for the time being at least. This is still completely speculation as of now however.

Hobbit Pictures from New York Toy Fair 2013

Figures.com has posted a nice gallery from this years Hobbit figures display from the New York Toy Fair. The Bridge Direct went out in full force to the annual toy fair and did not disappoint. Without a doubt the two highlights of the figures that are being shown are the 6 inch scale Azog and Bolg figures. Both figures towered over the previous wave figures and are full of detail. Other reveals include a seemingly US bound Yazneg figure, that is grouped with Bilbo and a box set of Thorin's company for the 3 3/4 inch line.

Check out some pictures below or head to the gallery from Figures.com.

First Look at Wave 2 of Hobbit Figures

Some pictures of prototypes from wave 2 of the Hobbit figures by The Bridge Direct have been posted online by the blog Idle Hands from the UK Toy Fair. No real surprises are shown, except maybe a 6 inch version of the Bolg figure we have seen in the smaller variety. We do, however, get some good looks at figures of Azog, Radagast and plenty of new dwarves.

Here is the link and some pictures from the blog.

NOTE: These are clearly shown as prototypes, as told by the sign next to the Azog picture, so these are not completely final. (More visible bird poop needed on Radagast's face for instance?)

"Summer" for Wave 2 of Hobbit Figures

The Bridge Direct has posted on their facebook page to expect wave 2 of The Hobbit line of figures to come out "this coming summer". A couple of fans commented on a post of them advertising their figures, asking when wave 2 would come out and if we would see a Lord of the Rings line from them as well. A rep for the company posted this reply:

 

"Thanks for all the support! We are super excited about this line and look forward to bringing more great products to the fans. Our focus for now is on The Hobbit trilogy but stay tuned for updates. Look for Wave 2 Hobbit toys to hit shelves this coming summer!"
