Bandobras Took
Until the return of Meriadoc and Pippin after the War of the Ring, Bandobras Took was the closest thing the Hobbits of the Shire had to a legendary warrior. He was very large and tall, said to be able to ride a full-sized horse. "Bandobras... gained fame for leading the Hobbits at the Battle of Greenfields in 2747 when Orcs from Mount Gram in the Misty Mountains invaded the Northfarthing. At this battle, Bandobras charged at the Orc leader Golfimbul and knocked off his head with a club. The Orc's head flew through the air for 100 yards and went down a rabbit hole; it is said that this is how the game of golf was invented." A Mega Miniature.
