More Hobbit dwarves emerge from underground, this time Balin and Dwalin

Last Updated on August 5, 2021

As excited as I am for THE HOBBIT, I’m not quite sure what to make of its recent marketing tactic to roll out new senior portrait-style pictures of various dwarves from the story every other day.

The grand total is approaching damn near a dozen, and today brings us Balin and Dwalin, continuing the great dwarf rhyme naming traditions of old. I would say they’re the strangest looking ones of the bunch so far, and Balin appears to be such a badass, he grew TWO beards.

Check them out for yourself below, and let’s hope this series is followed up by a bunch of hot elves.
