"Here is the list of all 98 Hobbits/Lord of the Rings Characters in the game:

There are DLC characters such as Smaug (Red Dragon) you can buy. This DOES NOT count towards the achievement.

IMPORTANT NOTE: COMPLETING MORE SIDEQUESTS is needed in finding the other characters. You won’t get this achievement until finding all the Mithril and forging all Mithril weapons and armor.
You need to buy all the custom character pants, heads, and bodies; such as the whole costume of a chicken or dragon. The character customization is located in Lake-Town.
It is needed to customize an Orc or Horse in Beorn's Homestead for the achievement.
For loot materials there is a vending machine in Erebor after you completed the main story to buy with your studs for loot like 500 carrots to unlock certain characters.

Jimli the Blacksmith – 50,000 studs. LAST FINAL CHARACTER YOU GET! He is the blacksmith always standing next you making forge items. After you have forged all Mithril items and collect all Mithrils you can then buy him.

42 Characters unlock after completing the Story, the other 56 are unlocked characters you'll have to find them in the hub world.

Location to Buy Characters: No location to buy characters in this game. Instead, you must find them walking around in areas of the world, by exploring this Middle-earth open world hub. Press then go to your map then see where each are located, some unlocked after completing a chapter.

The good thing about this game is it creates a way point to that character to go find them. To do this press on map where you highlight the character with your Magnify Glass. Then press on them to buy them, sometimes you have to hit them a few times. They show up on your mini map and game map when you are near one.

Hope this helps you guys :-) thanks to MissJaded for this guide!
Any improvments? Please let me know in the comments!

While this is a pretty straight-forward achievement to unlock, DO NOT USE CODES. The achievement will not unlock, nor will the 100% achievement. If you use any code for the characters, you will then have to restart the entire game since it will not count that character as unlocked.
