Quoted from PanzerFreak:Thank you for the kind words. Great suggestions! Some more callouts from Smaug would be great to hear in the game. The Smaug toy is pretty cool and there appears to be more speech from the character that isn't in the game.
I've always been surprised that no Smaug lines from one of the best scenes in the entire trilogy isn't in the game, the scene where Smaug calls Bilbo "Barrel Rider".
"Do you think flattery will keep you alive". "You seem familiar" (could be used at game start with Smaug toy), "Who are you and where do you come from" (same as last). All of those are from Smaug and should be in the game.
