Comment removed by poster. Apologies everybody if my comments caused offence or distress. I'm mortified to think I may have caused somebody that is a good friend to this community a real problem, not to say very embarrassed by the depths of my stupidity and naivity. I underestimated the potential impact of making unsuitable comments in a public forum. I'm going to remove myself from this group for a while. Really really sorry again.

Ok, so now we have a date. And the name: The Hobbit Strategy Battle Game. But we want meat on the bones, not a mere sniff.

Not exactly, it is: The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey Strategy Battle Game.
Your version sounds better though.

A FLGS just called me to let me know they got their Hobbit release list in. (I cannot give out a name since I don't know whether or not auntie gee-dub is watching).

Some things he told me are coming:
The Hobbit: Escape from Goblin Town Limited Edition 100€
The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey Hardback rulebook 65€
Escape from Goblin Town custom figure case
Escape from Goblin Town paint set
The White Council Box 60€
Orc Hunters
Orc Hunters on Wolves 30€
Fimbul The Hunter
Bolg
Goblin Warriors of the Misty Mountains
The Fellowship of the Ring

I asked him to send me the list by e-mail so I can place my order. Will see what I can post without giving out too much info.
No word on when this stuff is released apart from the starter box.

The Fellowship of the Ring?

Doesnt make sense.

Two possibilities come to mind.

First, a "rebranding" of the LOTR box to a Hobbit Box
Second, the list was far from official, perhaps the FLGS misspoke and called the Thorin's Company the Fellowship... thats a leap of faith I realize...
