The Hobbit Gandalf and Bolg Two Pack Review

Today we have a review of The Hobbit Two Pack featuring Gandalf and the orc Bolg!

These are the first Hobbit figures I have opened, and they are amazing!

Here is Gandalf the Grey.

The fearsome orc, Bolg.

Gandalf includes his sword, signature staff, and a removable hat.

Bolg comes with two very haggard looking sword, and a make shift hammer/axe thing.  Either way, it looks cool.

Articulation on these figures is pretty great.  

Gandalf: head, hip, shoulders, elbows, wrists, and ball jointed legs.

Unfortunately, Gandalf has no knee or ankle articulation, but stands fine on his own anyway.  His cloud might kind of hinder his movement, but I really had no problem getting him to stand without a stand.

Speaking of stands, these figures include none, which is fine, but they don't have peg hole.  I have tons of stands lying around that are not being used, it is a shame I can't use them on these, but they do seem to stand on their own fine.

Bolg: wrists, elbows, shoulders, neck, torso, legs, and knees!

As you can see, there is quite a high amount of detail in these figures.  The beard looks great!

As for their heights, Bolg simply towers over Gandalf.  His hat adds a little bit, but Borg is still a giant.  I think these sizes are about perfect.

As you can see, with his hat, Gandalf is just slightly taller than Captain America, and still shorter then Thor.  This works great in my opinion.

Bolg is considerably taller, towering over Captain America and still being a head or so over Thor.

My favorite thing about this line so far is the potential it has.  This scale is great for collecting, so tons and tons of army builder would be AWESOME.  Also, they can afford to have massive figures compared to their dwarves and hobbits.

Here is Bolg compared to Kili and Fili.  He is almost twice their size!

The dwarves are closer to Gandalf size, but he is still undeniably bigger.  It really works about great.  (Dwarf reviews coming soon!)

The detail on Bolg is simply great.  His armor can move around a bit, but isn't loose by any means.

Overall, this is just a wonderful two pack.  I simply cannot wait until more waves of this toyline are announced.  I will absolutely be buying all of them if this quality stays consistent.  I need a Gimli after all!
