1/6 Hot Toys Avengers: Endgame - Armored Thanos

[Hoody999]

A thanos prequel would be amazing. It would never happen but man, talk about a cool idea

Yes, that would be awesome. Even if it was integrated into another origin story, or the eternals movie ?? no idea where it would make sense, but would definitely be cool.

Although on the other hand I guess we know the plot well enough. An extended cut would do it for me. But that's not going to happen either.

Oh well, I'll just have to be happy with my Armoured HT Thanos on the shelf. Can't wait !

IW starts with armor and EG ends with armor. OCD can always justify the armor for both films.

Thanos was his best in his skivvies... but IW Thanos looks a bit like a Stretch Armstrong. Probably moreso over time.



I do agree that the inevitable battle-damaged Thanos will be the best of the bunch. New head and all. Plus the "headless" accessory. And the fried glove.

I think it will be much more visually striking to have a pristine armored Thanos facing off against a scuffed up Cap!

Thematically more emphasis is placed on Cap’s heroics and the weight of what he’s up against is greater if facing off against a perfect Thanos.

But it’s your money you do what moves you lol

That's a good point. That would look great!

Maybe I'll wait for v4 then... battle-scuffed Thanos, with diecast light-up glove, three different Thanos expressions (neutral, mean, and sad), and multiple fighting arms.

I’m confused lol

Hey you had also mentioned the arms you’re right the previous one did have goofy purple arms lol doesn’t this one have the same rubber/vinyl material on the arms though or are these plastic now?

 

[Hoody999]

Some more pics (my favs), just because. This guy can't come quick enough !

They do look like that same goofy rubber-astic arms.... that tweak weird when you bend them.

Hopefully though, on the armored version, the gauntlet and bicep-band help hide the 'tweak'.

Has anyone pointed out that he comes with replacement left hands. It's odd that every photo features him wearing the gauntlet.

And If they are including left hands, for a non-gauntlet look, are they also including left arm bracers?

 

[SilverStar17]

You can’t really clearly tell, but in that shot of the full figure with his back turned, it looks like he might be wearing a bracer on his left arm and not the gauntlet:



The gauntlet sits up higher on his forearm than whatever he appears to have on his arm in that shot does.

Interesting. After a quick look it's very hard to find any picks of him in armour with no Gauntlet on the left hand. Dunno, something is probably going to change here.

Although the Iron Studio statue is still all in with Gauntlet and armour. Although admittedly more difficult for them to change anything.

The Proto is a dressed up IW Thanos & the wrist portion of the gauntlet is not removable & the peg is pretty much a light bulb.

Yes that's clear, but I mean it's hard to find movie stills or pictures of other figures without a Gauntlet on the left hand.

damn i want this thanos right now !!!!!

I’m so glad I didn’t cancel my preorder of Infinity War Thanos after preordering Endgame Thanos. The Infinity War version is tiding me over during the wait.

Understandable, he looks great!

Yes but that back view of Thanos is not a pick without the gauntlet; as the bracers sit even higher on his forearm not lower. Not saying the final version won't be able to swap out it's forearm but the proto can't. It is hard to find photos of a figure that does not exist yet; but plenty of scenes in the movie show the left bracer.

Spoiler

Suddenly I have the urge to pre-order this guy and recreate his pose when he takes a seat at the end of Endgame.

The size of Thanos as a figure kind of puts me off, but the way he takes off his helmet, takes a seat and just takes it all in, is such a fantastic character moment. I think I may have to try and resist, but I hope the articulation is there for such a pose.

IW Thanos on the way to me but now I definitely want this one as well. Watched EG again, this represents IW and EG Thanos since he has the Infinity Gauntlet as well.

If you ignore the fact that he only had one stone at this point sure.
