WETA Workshop Mini Prop Replica - The Hobbit - The Burglar Contract of Bilbo Baggins

From New Line Cinema, Peter Jackson and Warner Bros. comes J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit, brought to the big screen in an epic trilogy.

Weta Workshop was thrilled to return to Middle-earth once again, contributing design, specialty props and specialty costumes to all three films.

After the rather rude and un-Hobbit-like way that his rowdy guests (or intruders) presented themselves at Bag End, it's little wonder that Bilbo Baggins took some time to read through the contract presented to him by Thorin Oakenshield and the band of Dwarves in his company.

Declared fit for purpose by Gandalf the Grey, these Conditions of Engagement govern Bilbo’s role as Chief Burglar. Although unwilling to accept the role at first, Bilbo will prove his mettle when the time comes.

A hefty document by any standards, we’ve shrunk the contract to 3:4 scale to create a more manageable, miniature prop replica. All text, including the fine print, is legible.

The Burglar Contract of Bilbo Baggins has been stitched together by hand, with the thread fastened by wax seals. Every crease and roll was duplicated from the original film prop created by the 3Foot7 Art Department. Find your contract tied with ribbon, rolled up in a Collector’s Edition cardboard box.

"Our authentic prop replicas and collectibles are designed by the very same artists who have worked on the three films, so effectively they come straight from Middle-earth."
