Gandalf 443 - The Lord of the Rings Vinyl Figure Collectible, capturing the legendary Grey Wizard in his iconic appearance. This officially licensed collectible showcases one of fantasy's most beloved characters, making it an essential piece for any Lord of the Rings or Tolkien collection.

Product Details: This authentic Funko Pop! features Gandalf the Grey in his classic wizard robes, complete with his pointed hat, long grey beard, staff, and pipe. Standing approximately 3.75 inches tall, this premium vinyl figure captures Gandalf's wise, weathered appearance and the warmth that makes him beloved by hobbits and Free Peoples alike.

Why Gandalf is Legendary: Gandalf the Grey (later Gandalf the White) is arguably the most iconic wizard in all of fantasy literature and one of the central heroes of The Lord of the Rings. As one of the five Istari sent to Middle-earth to oppose Sauron, Gandalf dedicated his long existence to guiding and protecting the Free Peoples. His wisdom, courage, and compassion made him the architect of Sauron's defeat—from encouraging Bilbo's adventure that found the Ring, to selecting Frodo as Ring-bearer, to his sacrificial stand against the Balrog in Moria. His famous quotes, pipe-weed smoking sessions with hobbits, and friendship with all races make him the heart of Middle-earth. Portrayed brilliantly by Sir Ian McKellen in Peter Jackson's films, Gandalf became one of cinema's most beloved characters.

Character Background: Gandalf, known by many names including Mithrandir, Olórin, and the Grey Pilgrim, is a Maiar spirit sent to Middle-earth in the form of an old man around the year 1000 of the Third Age. Unlike Saruman who sought power, Gandalf walked among the Free Peoples as a friend and guide, earning their trust through wisdom and kindness. His love for hobbits, particularly Bilbo and Frodo Baggins, proved crucial to defeating Sauron. After his fall battling the Balrog of Moria, Gandalf returned as Gandalf the White, more powerful than before, to lead the defense of Gondor and rally the forces of good. His friendship with Aragorn, Legolas, Gimli, and the hobbits created the Fellowship that saved Middle-earth. A master of subtle magic, Gandalf preferred wisdom and inspiration over raw power, making him the perfect guide for the Age.
