Now is an exciting time to be a fan of The Lord of the Rings, and it isn’t just due to the franchise’s long-awaited return to the big screen in live action with The Hunt for Gollum. Prime Video is also bringing back The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power for its highly anticipated third season this November, and by the time the dust settles at the end of the season, the story of The Rings of Power will be more than halfway over. Reports indicate that Amazon is eyeing a five-season run for its most expensive fantasy series, which is estimated to cost over $1 billion for its first two seasons. There are more things for LOTR fans to be excited about beyond The Hunt for Gollum and The Rings of Power, though.
Not long ago, Warhorse Studio confirmed rumors that it is working on a new open-world Lord of the Rings game that will allow players to explore the many diverse areas of Middle-earth, though at this time it’s unclear when it will be released. Warhorse is the same studio behind the first two Kingdom Come: Deliverance games, which have earned widespread acclaim from both critics and audiences. The Lord of the Rings fans are also going to be treated to another brand-new release this November alongside The Rings of Power, when Prime 1 Studios releases a new Cave Troll of Moria figure from the iconic scene in the first LOTR movie, The Fellowship of the Ring. The figure retails for $2,999.99, and it’s estimated to ship between November and February, but only 300 units will be made, so fans who want one must act fast. The 1/4 scale figure is over 35 inches tall.

🪨 Gollum
You carry something heavy — and you carry it alone, even when you don’t have to. You were not born for greatness, and that is precisely why greatness chose you. Your courage is not the roaring, sword-swinging kind; it is quiet, stubborn, and terrifying in its refusal to quit. The Ring weighs on you more than anyone can see, and still you walk toward the fire. That is not weakness. That is the rarest kind of strength there is.
Advertisement
You are, without question, the best of them. Not the most powerful, not the most celebrated — but the most essential. Your loyalty is not a trait; it is a force of nature. You would carry the person you love up the slopes of Mount Doom if it came to that, and we both know you’d do it without being asked. The world needs more people like you, and the world is lucky it has even one.
You were born to lead, and you have spent years running from it. The crown is yours by right, but you know better than anyone that right means nothing without the will and the worthiness to back it up. You are tempered by loss, shaped by long roads, and defined by a code of honour you hold to even when no one is watching. When you finally step forward, the world shifts. Because it was always waiting for you.
Advertisement
You have seen more than you let on, and you say less than you know — which is exactly as it should be. You are a catalyst: you do not fight the battles yourself, you ignite the people who can. Your wisdom comes not from books but from an age of watching what happens when it is ignored. You arrive precisely when you mean to, and your presence alone changes what is possible. A wizard is never late.
Graceful, perceptive, and almost preternaturally calm under pressure — you see things others miss and act before others react. You do not need to make a scene to be remarkable; your presence speaks for itself. You are loyal to those you choose to stand beside, and that choice is not made lightly. You have lived long enough to know that the most beautiful things in this world are also the most fragile, and that is why you fight to protect them.

You are loud, proud, and absolutely formidable — and beneath all of that is one of the most fiercely loyal hearts in Middle-earth. You don’t do anything by half measures. Your friendships are forged like iron, your grudges run as deep as mines, and your courage in battle is the kind that makes legends. You came into this fellowship suspicious of everyone and ended it willing to die for an elf. That is not a small thing. That is everything.
You think in centuries and act in absolutes. Order, dominion, control — not because you are cruel by nature, but because you have decided that the world left to itself always falls apart, and you are the only one with the vision and the will to hold it together. You were not always this. Something was lost, or taken, or betrayed, and the version of you that stands now is the answer to that wound. The tragedy is that you’re not entirely wrong — just entirely too far gone to course-correct.
Advertisement
You are a study in contradiction — pitiable and dangerous, cunning and broken, capable of both cruelty and something that once resembled love. You are defined by loss: of innocence, of self, of the one thing that gave your existence meaning. Two voices war inside you constantly, and the tragedy is that the better one sometimes wins, just not often enough, and never at the right moment. You are a warning, yes — but also a mirror. We are all a little Gollum, given the right ring and enough time.
