@chen-yuzhu Glamdring and scabbard are there, along with a cool dragon firework accessory.  whoever set up the DST booth did no favors to LOTR. I can't figure out posting pics either... but watch ToyShiz's DST booth walk-through.

That's great. I would definitely buy two or three of these Gandalf the White.

I think the firework comes with Merry and Pippin, and it’s way awesome they included it. I hope they have swords too. 

can anybody tell what accessory is under the magic effect next to Gandalf? It looks like something but I can’t place it.

The blue one? Looks like a glowing Sting for Sam maybe.

no it’s brown with what looks like a white string through it. The magic effect is covering most of it.

Oh man, it's really hard to say, honestly have no idea. Kinda looks like some food item but I dunno, it clearly has a bumpy texture on a closeup.

Longbottom leaf?

My first thought was Gandalf's pipe and tobacco pouch.  otherwise, I got nothing!

I think the Longbottom leaf is probably a good guess. I'm not sure what else it could be either.

Would love to see them come with a little piece of Lembas, or a pint tankard. Two of the scenes I associate with Merry and Pippin most are them eating too many lembas and Pippin's "It comes in pints?!"

The shape of that item is so weird. I don't really get what it is. It almost looks like the butt of a rifle. It could be a pipe and the bag of longbottom leaf. But does Gandalf the White ever use a pipe? I don't remember this. Maybe it's Merry's.

Second the wish for a pint! I wish more medieval figures came with tanks of mead, honestly.

He does! The night before the siege of Gondor he is smoking on a balcony and Pippin brings him some water. It’s where we get the line “There never was much hope, just a fool’s hope”. However in that scene his pipe is brown, not white. 

maybe it’s something that attaches to Sam’s pack? I can’t place it and it’s driving me insane.

Things were a little mixed up at Toy Fair this year, I have been trying to figure out what it is. It may have come from another toy line.

Zach was interviewed on Unboxing Art's YouTube last night and shared some info and insights about DST's LOTR line. He mentioned Merry and Pippin may come with a pint! I noted some specific times below where they discuss the figures and accessories and ideas for what's coming next.

28min - Gandalf the White, Merry and Pippin

50min- Saruman and Sam
