\"1hobbittease\"<\/a>Toy Fair 2013 is going on right now in New York, and those who were not buried under feet of snow have gotten a chance to see just what The Bridge Direct has cooked up for us with wave 2. The second wave of figures for The Hobbit<\/em> will consist of the rest of the company of Thorin Oakenshield in 3.75″ scale, Radagast the Brown in both 6″ and 3.75, Azog in both scales and – it appears – with both versions of his left arm, Bolg in 6″, and Yazneg in 6″ – which figure was previously released in the UK. There also will be a new version of Sting for sure this time, coming with scabbard, and a full blue version of Sting, both of which will go with the version from wave 1. This wave will also have plenty of two packs of the dwarves in 3.75″ scale, single packs for the dwarves, 6″ single packs, new 6″ two packs, new battle packs, and new beast packs with Azog and his Warg. Pricewise, these figures will be the same price as we saw figures from wave\u00a01, making it a very affordable and awesome line for fans of Middle-earth to collect. You can expect to find these figures out during the Summer of 2013.<\/p>\n

You can check out tons of images taken by the awesome folks at Figures.Com in their The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey<\/em><\/a> gallery.<\/p>\n

Some other very cool info coming out of Toy Fair about how this line may develop going forward:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The Bridge Direct wants to do a Smaug in 3.75 scale. This would of course be a large figure even in that scale, to be bigger than the Dwarves.<\/li>\n
  2. The Desolation of Smaug<\/em> packaging will be different than The Unexpected Journey<\/em> packaging. These figures will be out in the fall\/winter of this year.<\/li>\n
  3. There will be a party of Thorin pack that will cost $80, allowing you to get all the Dwarves in one package.<\/li>\n
  4. There will be a Comic-Con 2013 figure.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
