The Lord of the Rings Statue 1/6 The Balrog (Classic Series) 32 cm

Of all the terrors the Fellowship of the Ring would face on their journey, none could compare to the Balrog. A demon of fire and shadow, the creature had lain buried for countless ages in the deepest darkness, far beneath the Misty Mountains. Deep beneath the earth, tunneling for Mithril into the sunless black rock, the Dwarves disturbed something that had lain safely buried for ages past, a being of unfathomable terror, relic of a time of gods and giants, a creature whose likes none would ever walk Middle-earth again and for which there were few equals left in the world, a Balrog of Morgoth. The Balrog could not be harmed by any blade or device of Dwarven design. By the hundreds, Durin's folk and the Dwarf King himself fell before the beast, after it was called Durin's Bane. When the Fellowship of the Ring sought to pass beneath the Misty Mountains and thus foil the attentions of the fallen Wizard Saruman, it went against Gandalf's grave misgivings, for the Grey Wizard suspected what haunted the shadows of Moria. Only secrecy could ensure their safe passage, for if the Balrog were alerted, Gandalf knew that their escape would be costly and he would never again enter the gates of the Dwarf kingdom.
