1/6 Hot Toys Avengers: Endgame - Armored Thanos

[The Buffinator]

You should get the Infinity war Thanos then. (to be clear, I'm not trying to argue with you here)
This is Endgame Thanos.
Or Hot Toys can be a good company and include both. (Or at least sell 1/6 Gauntlet that can replace old one for Endgame Thanos)

This. I'd love a Nano Gauntlet without stones so I could pose Thanos looking at the back of it while BD Tony is getting ready to make his snap.

That would be a sweet accessory. Maybe if they release a BD Armored Thanos.

I expect this figure to then come with both gauntlets. I bought this specifically because he was armored and came with a completed gauntlet. If they're also now showing pics of the nano gauntlet then I hope it's in addition and not a replacement.

If it was something smaller and cheaper to make i would say they might but it is a big complex piece and i would be shocked if they tossed it in for free. It would be very unlike Hot Toys. They have made mutiple figures for much smaller differences like Anakin, CW Cap, BvS Armored Batman, etc.

You both place too much goodwill in HT...they are not a good company...they are not a bad company...but merely a company so therefore they prioritize profits above anything else.

I totally see them releasing a BD Thanos with the Stark gauntlet just to get their loyal customers to cough up another $400+. I would prefer them not to...but we all know them too well at this point.

Yes, you make a good point kyekye.

There is no point in Engame (that I can remember) where Thanos is wearing his armor and also wearing the original gauntlet.

However, like MegaPrime33 I bought this Endgame version of Thanos because he is advertised prominently wearing his armor and wielding a complete gauntlet. So if he does not come with that gauntlet and only comes with the Stark Nano Gauntlet I will be pretty disappointed.

I passed on the Infinity War version of Thanos bk even though he has the gauntlet, he is not armored, so I was not sufficiently motivated to purchase him. Thanos in armor reminds me much more of his look in the comics, so for me that is a more iconic look. I try to acquire ONE version of each character (that I like) that to me seems most representative of how I remember them in the comics.

 

[yacobschlomo]

Is he armored in the comics? The old ones I used to read, he was wearing something like a bodysuit with no real armor.

I do agree that they should include the infinity gauntlet since it was advertised with that even though it's inaccurate to the movie. As others have mentioned, we'll likely see a battle damaged version with the nano gauntlet. I think they should include it with this version, but chances of that happening are pretty slim.

 

[The Buffinator]

If he's coming with only one gauntlet, I think it should be the Nano gauntlet as the figure isn't accurate to the film if it's wearing the IG. OK, he was wearing it in his garden hut early on (prior to Thor chopping off his arm) but it was severely damaged and the stones were gone. Also this:

This is the same company that is re-releasing the Homemade Spidey suit with the 1/6th drone...versus the upgraded suit with the teeny tiny drone (even though it should rightfully be receiving the 1/6th drone).

HT loves to put their consumers in the situation where they must double (triple) dip in order to get certain accessories (another example IM Mk 85 v BD Mk 85 for the extra, screen accurate accessories). They ain't gonna release Armor Thanos with the Stark gantlet even though they should.

he wore it in infinity war but only the power stone was in his posession.

I agree. I said it SHOULD be the Nano gauntlet, not that it WOULD be.

True, but this is an Endgame release, so what he wore in IW is irrelevant.

Spiderman figures and (old) Ironman figures are average $250 and there are group of people collecting the variations.
This is Thanos. costing $415 + shipping. And this guy is huge.
I don't see many people collecting him or buy more than 1 version of him. Maybe sell old and buy new.
Only way they might do is "a convention exclusive with nano guantlet" , but that would be a total d*ck move for Hot toys.

yet they've done it before....

Exactly what i expect them to do

 

[kyekye]

But then again, if that goes that route,
Right after "the convention exclusive with nano gauntlet" somebody will make a re-cast and slightly improved version from the Hot Toys new parts and sell it on Ebay..

 

[jinkazama]

so.. about that Gauntlet..

To be clear, the Thanos in this pic is actually the upcoming battle damaged Endgame Thanos with the Nano Gauntlet, not the previously announced Endgame armored Thanos......

 

[Jim Morrison]

Move my IW Thanos on a while back and I also pulled this version. Only have space for one big fella so I'm going to wait it out for BD with Nano.

 

[MegaPrime33]

I personally don't care about the nano gauntlet regardless of whether it's screen accurate to the figure or not. I got this figure because he's fully armored and has the right gauntlet. It's the closest we're going to get for this to the comic version. Hopefully, for my sake, it has the regular and then they release a BD version with the nano.

[DioramaMaker]

Armored with the gauntlet is the way we are introduced to Thanos in Infinity War. That's good enough for me.

It would be cool if the stones were magnetic and could be removed and replaced in the gauntlet with Armored Thanos. That would allow recreation of that introductory scene in IW, with screen accuracy... Won't happen, but it's be cool.
