Frodo Baggins was a Hobbit of the Shire. His uncle [[Bilbo Baggins]] had went on an [[The Hobbit|adventure]] 60 years earlier, and found [[Part 11010|the One Ring]] in the creature [[Gollum]]'s cave. The Ring passed onto Frodo after Bilbo's 111th birthday party. After learning that the Ring was the most powerful weapon of the enemy, the Dark Lord Sauron, Frodo was tasked by the wizard [[Gandalf the Grey]] to immediately leave the Shire (with his gardener [[Sam (The Lord of the Rings)|Samwise Gamgee]], [[Merry]], and [[Pippin (The Lord of the Rings)|Pippin]]) and head for the The Prancing Pony in the village of Bree. Soon he met [[Aragorn]], who headed for Rivendell with the Hobbits. There it was decided, Frodo had to take the Ring to Mordor. He was joined by his three Hobbit friends, Aragorn, Gandalf, [[Gimli]], [[Legolas Greenleaf|Legolas]], and [[Boromir]]. After losing Gandalf, the Fellowship was broken. Frodo and Sam left for Mordor, alone. The creature [[Gollum]] became the Hobbits' guide, leading them to Mordor. After a long series of adventures, Frodo finally destroyed the Ring. Four years later, Frodo departed to the Undying Lands, from the Grey Havens, with Bilbo, Gandalf, [[Elrond]], [[Celeborn]] and [[Galadriel]].

Frodo Baggins of Bag End, like most Hobbits, is not easily affected by magic - good or evil. Frodo volunteers to carry the One Ring to Mordor, cast it into Mount Doom and destroy the One Ring forever. He soon feels the terrible powers of The Ring, and all the dark creatures who hunt him in their search for it will do anything to claim the One Ring for themselves and leave Middle-earth in darkness. It is hard for a very small person to carry such a heavy burden. Frodo will need all the help he can get from his friends in the Fellowship. He must summon all his courage, endurance, kindness, and strength, because even the smallest person can change the course of the future.

Frodo Baggins is a minifigure from the theme The Lord of the Rings first released in 2012. He is one of the main characters of the theme, and appears in five sets.

Description

Frodo's Shire variation, which is seen in 9469 Gandalf Arrives, has dark brown short legs and a sand green torso. His torso is printed with suspenders, a belt and several buttons. His arms are also sand green and his hands are light nougat. His light nougat head has on one side, a cheerful, smiling expression and on the other, a slightly worried look. He has brown eyebrows and curly dark brown hair.

There are two versions of Frodo used when he is adventuring which almost the same apart from the fact that they have different coloured cloaks. The Frodo that appears in 9470 Shelob Attacks has a dark stone grey cloak while the one that appears in 9472 Attack on Weathertop has a earth green cloak. This is because the Fellowship got new cloaks after leaving Lórien. Frodo has dark brown legs and a reddish brown torso. His torso is printed with a reddish brown coat, a dark red waistcoat and a ivory tunic. He has reddish brown arms, and light nougat hands. One side of his light nougat face has a grim expression, and the other has a terrified screaming mouth and pale blue eyes. He has brown eyebrows and curly dark brown hair.

A fourth variation, to be released in 79006 The Council of Elrond, features the same legs, torso and hairpiece as the variations included in 9470 Shelob Attacks and 9472 Attack on Weathertop, but does not come with a cape and uses a different head. One side of his light nougat face has an angry expression and the other has a worried face.
