After conquering the charts with The Lord of the Rings, Peter Jackson shifted his focus to the book that ignited it all—The Hobbit. The adaptation of The Hobbit hasn't garnered as much acclaim as Jackson's LOTR Trilogy; it takes longer to watch the film trilogy than to read the book. The Hobbit likely should have been adapted into a single movie rather than three. However, at least this cool box set includes three steelbook cases.
The Hobbit Limited Edition Steelbook Collection has been out of print for some time, but currently, you can acquire it for $150, the best price we've seen this year. This box set typically sells for around $200, so we don't anticipate this deal lasting long.
Looking to expand your Middle-earth Blu-ray collection? Check out the upcoming The Lord of the Rings Trilogy: One Ring Gift Box. Preorders are available ahead of its December 20 release, featuring theatrical and extended versions of all three films in 4K, a limited-edition book with elegant faux-gold accents, and a replica of the One Ring. Priced at $157, it's a bit steep, but you're getting a wealth of cool collectibles for your investment.
Since The Lord of the Rings Trilogy Steelbook Collection has already sold out after its August reprint, this upcoming collection is currently the top choice. It's also worth noting that Walmart is taking preorders for the Limited Edition Steelbook version of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. Set to release on January 7 and available to preorder for $35 exclusively at Walmart, this is the same 4K steelbook edition from the previously sold-out collection.
Once you've explored these Blu-ray deals, check out Amazon's B2G1 Free Book Sale, featuring notable Tolkien books, including The Hobbit's Illustrated Edition with sketches by the author and the recently released Collector's Edition hardcover. Target is also hosting a B2G1 Free Book Sale in anticipation of Black Friday 2024.
