Description

The Shire in miniature

Bag End is the home of Bilbo Baggins, the hobbit hole with the round door known from Tolkien's The Hobbit and the films based on it. This set shows the place at micro scale: a little hill, a door, a garden. The colours, green, reddish brown, tan and dark tan, suit grass, timber and dirt paths well. As a convention set it was not an ordinary shop release, which makes it interesting to Middle-earth collectors, even though the model itself is small and simple.

Small build, careful detail

At 130 pieces the set builds quickly, but the appeal lies in the detail. In micro scale models each element is chosen with care: only 36 different part types combine to make the hill, the path and the planting. If you enjoy creating atmosphere with very few bricks, this is a good example of how little it takes to carry a scene. The single minifigure provides a sense of scale and can stand in front of the round door.

Display piece and parts supply

Bag End suits display better than play: it takes up little room and sits happily beside larger Middle-earth scenes on a shelf. The full parts list on this page helps you check your stock or hunt for individual elements. The What can I build? tool shows which other sets you could put together from bricks you already own. Green and reddish brown pieces are always in demand for landscapes, trees and villages, so these elements are useful for your own Shire ideas as well.

A word on its origin

Convention sets were made for fan events and were not meant for ordinary retail. That is why they mostly turn up on the collectors' market today, and the parts list is especially useful if you want to check a second-hand copy for completeness. The year 2013 fits the Hobbit range of that time, which accompanied the films. If you place the set beside the larger scenes from that line, you get a pleasing comparison between micro scale and normal scale.
