The Mole, Ratty, Mr Badger and Mr Toad.

Kenneth Graham's tale of adventure and friendship between the anthropomorphised animal characters is a classic. Set along a riverbank in the English countryside. And at Toad Hall, naturally.

A distinct favourite with many children as well as grown-ups, The Wind In The Willows is being made into a feature film by director Ray Griggs and it is his company, RG Entertainment who have commissioned Weta to sculpt and distribute these wonderful bookends.

On one side, Ratty and Mole on a jetty by the river, fishing and reading Moby Dick.

On the other Mr Badger and Mr Toad in Mr Badger's parlour, Mr Toad still holding the steering wheel from his freshly wrecked motorcar.

Sculpted by Weta sculptor Johnny Fraser-Allen and Gary Hunt this collectible has been made by the same artists who would be working on the movie. These bookends are a taste of what's to come.

Edition Size: TBD
