i've looked at the couple of pics circulating the web, the one dwarf missing in the alternate versions is nori.

also, have y'all seen this alternate bilbo? maybe he'll be part of that new company.

The pose looks an awful lot like the Bilbo from EFGT. But there are some small differences, like the feet being switched. Maybe that is just a prototype?

Nothing beats the plastic Bilbo for me, it actually looks like the actor's face.

strange how plastic is better than finecast. why do we even need finecast?
my only issue with plastic bilbo is that he's not up to scale with the regular metal hobbits.

Finecast is cheaper to tool for small production runs, while plastic is expensive to set up, but very cheap once you're recouped the initial costs.
