I thought it was played out. To quote Willow, "Bored Now."

Of course, I've had a difficult time finding a suitable replacement, so I'm back to the ol' Barriss.

Now, I await TRU's stocking of the Ringbearer set. Oooof.

Is the ring bearer three pack just Frodo, Sam and Gollum in the green FOTR packaging?  We've had that sitting on the shelves here for quite a while if so.

I think its Twilight versions of Prologue Bilbo, Gollum and Frodo.

do you like the Twilight versions of these?  I would think this would be extremely rare, since Twilight Frodo was, so thinking that maybe Bilbo and Gollum would be some rare ones also?

The set isn't rare, it's a TRU exclusive, which means it's not even difficult to find.  Except around here, but there isn't anything here at all.  Nada.  Zilch.  Zero.

i cant see how anyone would spend money on these, not to offend anyone, but most of them are re-packs and dont even look to good anyway! :-\

I'm not wasting money on them, except for the Ringbearer pack. I'm buying that one, and I expect the other two to sit until The Hobbit is in theaters. ::)

The threpacks (get it?  Get it?   ;))  make sense when you think about it in terms of characters, but TB should have made some effort to offer something new ala the ringbearers set.

I decided I'm not getting the Ringbearers even, I also decided seeing the pile of Shelf Warming There and Back Again Set to wait for a clearance on those bad boys :-*

Found all threpacks at my local TRU. $18 a crack.

I wanted to buy the Ringbearers set, but it couldn't show at a worse time. (Damn school loans.)
