THE HOBBIT: AN UNEXPECTED JOURNEY: The Trolls Are Finally Revealed At Comic-Con
Yet another display at this year's San Diego Comic-Con has put the spotlight on Peter Jackson's The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey, revealing the trolls from the highly anticipated films! Hit the jump to check them out.
These life-sized Trolls are on display at WETA's The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey display at this year's San Diego Comic-Con. It's likely that these were used as reference for the animators at the digital effects house during production of the Peter Jackson helmed The Lord of the Rings prequel(s). Many thanks to Bleeding Cool for the following image, and be sure to stay tuned to CBM for more from the event over the next few days.

The adventure follows the journey of title character Bilbo Baggins, who is swept into an epic quest to reclaim the lost Dwarf Kingdom of Erebor from the fearsome dragon Smaug. Approached out of the blue by the wizard Gandalf the Grey, Bilbo finds himself joining a company of thirteen dwarves led by the legendary warrior, Thorin Oakenshield. Their journey will take them into the Wild; through treacherous lands swarming with Goblins and Orcs, deadly Wargs and Giant Spiders, Shapeshifters and Sorcerers.
Although their goal lies to the East and the wastelands of the Lonely Mountain first they must escape the goblin tunnels, where Bilbo meets the creature that will change his life forever…Gollum.
Here, alone with Gollum, on the shores of an underground lake, the unassuming Bilbo Baggins not only discovers depths of guile and courage that surprise even him, he also gains possession of Gollum’s "precious" ring that holds unexpected and useful qualities … A simple, gold ring that is tied to the fate of all Middle-earth in ways Bilbo cannot begin to know.
