The Lord of the Rings Animated Film PVC Figure Set: Merry, Boromir, and Pippin

This is a newly announced 3-piece PVC figure set from Dark Horse Direct, based on Ralph Bakshi’s 1978 animated The Lord of the Rings film.

It features Merry (Meriadoc Brandybuck), Pippin (Peregrin Took), and Boromir as they appear in the classic rotoscope-animated adaptation. Sculpted by Chris Dahlberg and painted by J.W. Productions, the figures capture the distinctive stylized look of the 1978 movie.

Key Details:

• Heights: Merry ≈ 5″ H, Pippin ≈ 4.4″ H, Boromir ≈ 7.5″ H (Hobbits are smaller, Boromir is the tallest).
• Materials: PVC / Vinyl.
• Set Price: $89.99 regular; pre-order for $79.99 (save $10). Pair with the Frodo/Aragorn/Samwise set for $15 off total.
• Release Window: January–March 2027.
• Packaging: Sold as a single boxed set.

The set evokes the dramatic scene where Boromir, tempted by the One Ring, ultimately protects Merry and Pippin.

This is the second set in the line (following Frodo, Aragorn, and Samwise).

Where to pre-order: Dark Horse Direct (official site), IGN Store, Ozzie Collectables, and other retailers.

These are faithful recreations of the animated designs—colorful, expressive, and perfect for fans of Bakshi’s unique take on Middle-earth. The first set has been well-received for its accuracy to the film’s art style.
