The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies with 2 Minifigures (Blu-ray + DVD)

Released in 2015, this special edition bundle serves as the home media release for the final installment in Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit trilogy. The package was designed to capitalize on the crossover appeal between the film franchise and LEGO’s Middle-earth building sets, bundling the Blu-ray and DVD formats with two exclusive plastic minifigures, typically Bilbo Baggins and Thorin Oakenshield. This release strategy reflected a trend of the mid-2010s where film studios paired physical media with cross-promotional merchandise to incentivize purchases in an increasingly digital marketplace.

The inclusion of these specific minifigures was intended for fans of the LEGO The Hobbit theme, which drew heavy inspiration from the aesthetic choices of Weta Workshop’s costume and prop designs for the films. While the set was well-received by collectors of the toy line due to the limited availability of these specific character variants, the design itself followed the standardized, highly recognizable LEGO aesthetic. It was marketed primarily as a collector's curiosity for those wishing to complete their miniature Middle-earth dioramas alongside their home media library.
