I finally got my AoU Thor today!

Looks great, zack. Congrats! I'm right behind you in (should be) getting mine either tomorrow or Wednesday.

Thanks, SilverStar! You won't be disappointed...this is an excellent figure!

No problem.

He looks like he is. Can't wait to add him to my other 4 AoU figures so far.

Anyone who already has this know if the cape can be removed? I plan on displaying him without the cape.

There is some really cool photos of this Thor action figure now

 

[YankeesFanboy]

Cool pic, zack! That's about life-sized, right?

Thanks, Yankee!

I probably should have specified. That isn't a photo of the figure...it's actually Hemsworth himself. He hired me for a photo shoot. He did, however, mention how life-like the figure was before he left.

Did you try to lift Mjolnir?

Yup...it can be removed.

Don't mean to sound like that guy, but I'm glad I stuck with TDW Thor, that face looks like Leonardo Dicaprio and Warren Beatty had a kid.

You already sounded like that guy.

 

[ImABarRoomHero]

You already sounded like that guy.

Yeah.... I know, I feel bad now, sorry.

 

[Auel]

Yeah.... I know, I feel bad now, sorry.

You don't have to feel sorry though, this is a board for discussion. Everyone has their own opinions

 

[Sierra122]

Tempted to get back into collecting after being forced to leave because of the forever rising costs... and thinking this to be a good one to start of with!

It's cool, I feel the same. I can't understand how they went backwards from the DW Thor sculpt. AOU Thor is a great figure but the head is a huge step backwards.

 

[WhoaItsJBot]

I like the silver armor and the added height, but prefer the likeness of TDW sculpt. I'm gonna keep my LA Thor sculpt but part out the rest so I can get this.

 

[SilverStar17]

Got my AoU Thor in today. Very finely crafted figure. I prefer the silver discs/realms on the AoU armor in lieu of the gold on TDW Thor, and I think I like the pants better also with the darker chainmaille. Sculpt wise, I think there's a slightly better Hemsworth likeness in TDW sculpt, but the likeness in the AoU sculpt is good enough. I prefer the facial expression and the hair on the AoU sculpt though. The cape is also pretty dark, but I actually like it. However, I still think the best Thor cape on any figure thus far is the cape on TDW LA Thor, followed by this one.

The light up Mjolnir is really cool also. If doing any sort of dynamic pose where his hammer wielding arm is raised, I'd definitely use that one being that it's extremely lighter than the die-cast Mjolnir and therefore, easier on joints; especially with the rubber arms.

Grats man. He looks Cool!

Did you try to lift Mjolnir?

Sure did! It didn't go too well.

Don't mean to sound like that guy, but I'm glad I stuck with TDW Thor, that face looks like Leonardo Dicaprio and Warren Beatty had a kid.

In all fairness, my camera (which I'm still learning to use) did distort him a little bit. His face looks a little wider than it actually is. Not sure if it was my focal length, distance from the figure, or the bad lighting in my apartment. But I promise the likeness is much better in person!

Fantastic, Silver Star! Congrats on getting yours, and great pics!
