I think that is goofy as hell but it's your collection so do what you want and enjoy.

I had Megos when I was a kid and to me Hot Toys figures are basically really expensive, well-made, oversized Megos. I can't think of anything more boring than putting a collection together that must always exactly mimic the source material down to every detail. I like to use my imagination a bit or collecting these things starts to feel rather pointless. So Superman is going to be part of my Avengers setup, and Hit-Girl is Keaton Batman's partner. But, different strokes for different folks...

Well, here's my solution to the Loki problem:

View attachment 127940

In my collection she's going to be Loki. She has a horned helmet and a magic staff. And in Norse mythology, Loki was a shape-changer who sometimes assumed female form.

Seriously. She's Loki and no one can tell me any different. Saves me all the money it would take to go after the first Loki figure, and she also saves me the heartache of this new Hiddleston headsculpt. Not to mention those fragile chains.

I'll be displaying my Maleficient with Loki, they'll look great together for sure. But Maleficient as a complete Loki replacement in a Marvel display? You cray cray :lol

Cray cray like a fox! :)

I'm just hardwired to treat these figures like Megos. Mixing and matching universes, kitbashing figures...it's just how I roll.

I do think, though, in an alternate universe where Hiddleston never got the part and Angelina Jolie was actually interested in doing it, that she could have made a kick-*** Loki. Another reason I'm doing this is that I really dig the Maleficent figure but can't deal with the idea of a Disney witch on my shelves. She needs to be someone else for the, um, Shelf Narrative to work.

Angelina as Loki? Hahahaha Jesus that would be horrendous.

Finally after an 45 min bus ride and and hour walk up to my local Fedex facility I have Loki in hand, I can't wait to unbox him.
 
Here is my Loki pretty Bad *** I have to say for my first Loki figure I may need to find the first one.

look out loki is gonna poke your eye out with the little Swiss army knife he is wielding. How many times would he have to stab someone with that thing to actually kill the person with it lol??? This gif seems fitting

I was thinking more along the lines of Avengers Loki 2.0 lol. Maybe SDCC exclusive next year or something.

Im thinking he is meaning there will be no Avengers Loki 2.0 and Im going to have to agree at this point. This is as close as your going to get.
