I picked up a Thanos on ebay last month as a Christmas gift to my brother. After he removed it from the box he noticed the armor piece you remove for the sitting pose was broken. It's only on one side. As if someone tried pulling it off instead off following the instructions. The seller stated he only opened the shipping box to inspect the item. Everything else was intact/untouched.

My question, is there a website for replacement parts? The figure is kind of old at this point and I don't think I will find a spare. If not, anyone know an easy way to remove the small broken piece from inside the waist area so I can try to repair it?

Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I can only suggest how to remove the broken piece. Get yourself a needle nose pliers to take it out, maybe even heat the plastic with a hairdryer to make it easier then use some strong super glue to fix it, it should be fine then. Just use caution when removing it.

That sucks about it being broken, while it wouldn't bother me much I can understand how disappointing it would be, sorry dude :(
 
Used a stand from the last air bender figure still loving this guy ! 064CBF6A-C252-4A18-8E2B-E7EFBCF40514.jpeg

Thanks brainiac. It's disappointing because it was a gift. He's ok with it since he only plans to display it in a sitting pose but I feel the need to fix it.

Thanks again.

I bet the next version of this guy will be bigger.

I agree that he will probably be a bit bigger if or when they make an Infinity War figure for him (at least thats my hopes). He seems much bulkier and a tad larger compared to his GOTG appearance. I think he’s been juicing.

Is there a gym on Sanctuary? :lol
Can see Thanos being late on his membership fees "Oh ummm ehh yeah can I get you after Friday when I get paid?" :lol
 
So, having just seen a pic of the toy of what Thanos
looks like armored up in Infinity War,
I'm SUPER glad I got this version. Grabbing the Mighty Glove, even if I have to get rid of some of the red paint to make it more screen accurate.
 
anyone able to give me a idea of a fair price for a pre owned one of these
and a price for throne only
cheers and thanks in advance
 
I saw "Thanos" on the board and immediately thought they released more shots of the Infinity War version haha. Still happy with my sad thanos though.
 
Impulse buy on this from Big a bad Toy Store shipped for less than $400. The figure is a bit small compared to how he is in Infinity Wars. But will also pick that one up too. I don’t see HT making him in the armor for Infinity Wars.
 
..So I got a shipment notification from OneSixKit for the ToysEra "mighty-glove" I can't believe I pre-ordered this a full year ago. I'll post pics when I receive it.
I'm presuming that I will use boiling water to remove the arm from the fig in order to put this one on.
