MOAR HOBBITS!

Celtic Wheel

SQUEE! Midnight tonight I’ll be sitting in a spacious theater in my comfy sweats geeking out with a LOT of coffee and… HOBBITS!

So, let me link to two of the many paraphernalia accouterments available now this holiday season. First? Lego Hobbits. Yes, that’s right. The Hobbit. And Lord of the Rings. In Legos. (I have a set gifted to me with Gandalf and Frodo and I’m grateful for the Grey Wizard by my side.)

The second? You can wear Galadriel’s Ring. Personally, I’d love to see a set with all the rings, just because I love how much world building was involved on that level, but I feel a touch partial to this one.

And last? BUT NOT LEAST? A Latin translation of The Hobbit! I know Barnes and Noble is carrying it; you can see that alongside a ton of other journals, books, toys, etc. (Though I draw the line at the Gollum bobblehead… Because preshus is creepy enough.)

You can also find a ton of other ephemera at the HobbitShop.com. Because… Well, the chess set alone is awesome.

Okay, I think I’m done geeking out now. Hee. Time for a nap before required caffeination! Wheeee!
