He first appeared in July 2012 in the Comic-Con Exclusive Bilbo Baggins Giveaway, and has appeared 4 sets thus far after that as well as a Target exclusive for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey Blu-ray. He is the adoptive uncle of Frodo Baggins and also appears in LEGO The Lord of the Rings: The Video Game.
== Description ==
His normal version has the standard Hobbit hair, long curly and thin in a light nougat orange. His light nougat head features double-sided: one with a stern and a scared expression on the other with wrinkles on both. He wears a dark red jacket, an olive green waistcoat, an a dark yellow tie. He has the short nonposable legs in dark tan.
== Background ==
Bilbo Baggins was one of the most predictable, respectable, and unadventurous hobbits in the Shire. One day, Gandalf the Grey came to Bilbo's home, Bag End, and asked him to come on an adventure. Bilbo refused in fury, but at the next night, thirteen dwarves led by Thorin Oakenshield barged into Bag End by order of Gandalf, and they forced Bilbo to come on the adventure. When the company had reached the Misty Mountains, and Bilbo was separated, he met Gollum and found The One Ring. Over the course of the adventure, Bilbo proved his usefulness. When he got back, he generously gave most of his treasure away, but he kept some of it, including the Ring, seeing as its power made him want to keep it close. He was forced to give it up to his nephew Frodo during his 111th birthday party, (Gandalf had discovered its evil power). The Ring Quest then took place. Afterwards, Bilbo went to live with Elrond in Rivendell before leaving Middle-earth on the last boat to the Grey Havens with the rest of the elves.
== Notes ==
* Just like his relative Frodo Baggins, Bilbo has a Regular version and a Shire version.
* In his young version in the LEGO The Lord of the Rings video game cutscene, the vest is orange and his coat is brown, but in the movie the coat is black and the vest is red.
* The new variant of Bilbo appears as a Target exclusive for The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey Blu-ray/DVD combo pack released in March 2013.
