A Dazzling Act
McKellen’s remarkable portrayal of Gandalf wasn’t just a fan favorite—it garnered him an Oscar nod for his role in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. But the wizardry didn’t stop there. McKellen reprised his role in the rest of the trilogy and even made a comeback as Gandalf the Grey in the prequel saga, The Hobbit, set a generation before the legendary events in The Lord of the Rings. Speaking of accolades, let’s not forget The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, which snagged an astonishing 11 Academy Awards, making history as the first fantasy film to win Best Picture. And oh boy, it shares this 11-win record with the classics—1959’s Ben-Hur and 1997’s Titanic.

Wait, the Gandalf diorama comes in a full-color box? Thats like icing on the cake, man. Perfect gift material right there.
Sir Ian McKellen got an Oscar nod for this role and this collectible honors that so well. Instant pre-order from me!
When can I get this? I need to know when it releases so i can mark my calendar and maybe take a day off LOL.
One does not simply walk into a store and not buy this. Pre-ordered and can’t wait!
its about time we got more high-quality LOTR stuff. Been missing Gandalf ever since the movies ended.
Anyone else hoping they make a Sauron version? I’d pay top dollar for that. Like, “my precious” level of top dollar.
75 bucks huh? Well considering its Sir Ian’s Gandalf, I guess its worth it. But I hope they make one for Aragorn too, jus’ sayin.
Meh, PVC is ok but I wish it was made of something cooler like, idk, mithril?
Dude, 9 inches of Gandalf in all his glory?! Shut up and take my money!
Ahhh, I can’t even! Ian McKellen is the ONLY Gandalf for me. This is a must have guys, no debates.
