79000 Riddles for the Ring is a The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey set released in November 2012. It consists of 105 pieces, and contains Bilbo Baggins, and an exclusively-printed version of Gollum.
Description
The set consists of a small cave, built primarily out of dark grey bricks, a small brown boat and a fish.
The cave's interior contains a small pedestal on which the One Ring is attached and the pedestal uses grey sloped bricks to give it the appearance of a stone pedestal. The interior is protected by a set of double-doors made out of several sloped bricks stacked beside each other, each of which is hinged on the edge of the cave. Two smaller sloped bricks are on the inner side of each door, leaving a gap through which the ring can be seen. The top of the cave is made of a single plate, with several sloped bricks placed upon it, creating a jagged effect. The walls of the cave are made of more sloped bricks, piled upon each other, creating the illusion of a rock wall. There is a knob on the side of the cave which, when turned, opens two rock doors and rotates the pedestal vertically in order to display the One Ring.
The boat is made up of two brown inverted sloped bricks, connected together by 1X2 plates. Several bones are placed about the craft.
Background
The set depicts the scene from The Hobbit where Bilbo Baggins and Grina the goblin fell into Gollum`s cave after fighting with each other. Gollum then come`s to investigate who fell into the cave. Bilbo had hid in the cave and saw the ring fall out of Gollum`s pocket , He then followed Gollum . Gollum killed Grina and Sting stopped glowing. Gollum then knowing someone else was in the cave went to investigate and found Bilbo. Bilbo then agree`s to play a game of the riddle`s on the condition that if he wins Gollum will show him the way out, If he loses then Gollum can eat him. Bilbo then answers all of Gollum`s riddles. Gollum then discovers the ring is missing and starts running to the cave`s exit with Bilbo following him. In the end Bilbo takes pity on Gollum sparing his life and escapes the caves.
