Review on:The Hobbit:An unexpected Journey Mini Figures

Today in the shops, Something caught my eye.Seems now the world is selling mini figurines of the Hobbit.
The packaging is nice,with a view of the map in the background and the main characters in the front.
On the top right corner, there is red dot saying - Series 1 - my guess is there will be more.
Opening the packaging, I discover 2 things: the figure is Balin the Dwarf, and instead of being in color, he is painted silver.Quite a nice touch.
The detail is quite stunning, with perfect patterns on his clothes and weapons.You can see his sword, but he also has his dagger, strapped to his belt on his back.Watch out! Here comes Balin!
