From the Archives: Elrond of Rivendell

Recommended music: Peter Hollens – Council of Elrond

We’re right on time with this #TolkienThursday post from the archives. Today, we’re taking a look at the ToyBiz Lord of the Rings Elrond of Rivendell!

Released in the third wave of The Fellowship of the Ring carded series figures is another Elrond, this time, without armor. I can’t imagine a soft goods cloak would have looked nearly as good as this sculpted one, and the paint job perfectly portrays Hugo Weaving’s face right down to the disapproving eyebrows.

This shot is a funny one to freeze frame, as there are clearly several members of the fellowship represented by their body doubles, but I had to pick it as Elrond gives some memorable lines here:
“No, indeed…it is hardly possible to separate you…even when he is summoned to a secret council and you are not.”😄

Finally, the last line of dialogue on the first disc of the extended DVD version: 😁 “Nine companions … so be it…You shall be the “Fellowship of the Ring”
