On the morning of his one-hundred and eleventh birthday, the eccentric master of Bag End huddles amid a jumble of paper and books, his quill a blur as he scratches at his memoir.

Miraculously hale for one of his advanced years, Bilbo Baggins is no ordinary Hobbit. A small person he might be, but his has been as long and storied life, and he pursues the self-appointed duty to record it in every detail with a furious fervour.

It is for Bilbo’s young cousin Frodo, and other Hobbits like him, that he is compelled to write. Age creeps upon Bilbo, little by little, and that Tookishness in his blood stirs wistful thoughts of far off mountains and friends long gone. His mind is made up; plans are set. Now all he needs is time to finish what he has begun, if those unwanted guests would stop ringing the bell!

BILBO BAGGINS AT HIS DESK

A story is only as good as the one who tells it. Here the adventurous Hobbit scrawls out his tales in the comfort of his own home, free to let his mind wander whilst safe and warm. Daniel Cockersell honours Sir Ian Holm by capturing the moment that Bilbo starts writing the story that will be loved by all.

FEATURES:

  • 1:6 scale;
  • Made from high-quality polystone and miniature paper props;
  • Sculpted by Daniel Cockersell, David Tremont & Leonard Ellis;
  • An iconic scene, recreated in celebration of the LOTR 20th anniversary;
  • Includes miniature versions of the original film paper props, created by calligrapher Daniel Reeve;
  • Loose paper props can be dressed and positioned as desired;
  • Signature pose and clothing.

 

With the sad passing of Sir Ian Holm, this piece became a beautiful homage to a beloved actor. We were in the early stages of the sculpt when we received the news and it took on a more personal meaning for everyone involved.

  1. Bimbo Baggins at his desk
    Quality

    I ordered Bilbo Baggins at his desk on the H5 sale. I just got it , I am impressed at how detailed this collectible is. Ian Holm’s face on this sculpt is perfect. The fine details on the pages of his diary can be read. The BIG issue I have with this is that the right side bottom of desk is not level with the base. This makes its wobbly, and this is why I gave it a 2 star. You would think that this would have been checked for QC , this piece was not cheap either. Disappointed in this piece, for that reason .

    I ordered this collectible on a whim and it has become one of my favorites. Bilbo at his desk sits on my desk in my office. The sculpt of Ian Holm's face is excellent and there is a large amount of detail in it - you can even read the writing on the little pages he is writing on. Very satisfied with this one.
