Gauntlet > Armor & No Gauntlet

 

[capfolly]

Which would you guys prefer?

This thanos or one without infinity gauntlet and no extra head sculpt but with armor and a weapon?

I plan on getting both but to answer your question it would be the IW without the armor. His armor is no doubt a major part of his character. When people think of Thanos they picture him in his blue and gold. Put the Infinity Gauntlet is one of the most iconic objects in comic history. One of the most famous comic story lines and undoubtedly Thanos' most iconic moment is Infinity Gauntlet. Even though multiple characters have wielded it the first name anyone thinks of when they hear "infinity Gauntlet", hell infinity anything, is Thanos. I want a major character to come with his most recognizable trait.

I prefer to have my infinity gauntlet and armor too. But I get why he's not wearing armor - it makes him seem more dangerous becuase he knows he doesn't need it now.

Wonder what week this guy will release... if the 1/4 Joker, Aquaman and Flash had "place holder" headsculpts
photoshopped in... that only leaves Thanos, Black Panther and Hulkbuster for release next.

Don't think this figure will release this month. The final payment for Black Panther was pushed back to Feb. Maybe these figures will be the ones released this quarter (Q1 2019)?

I typically prefer neutral facial expressions but this will be displayed with the 2nd sculpt.

Based on this and the guardians figure....idk it's a tough call for me. I was going to armor but this one is more modern looking and more opposing. But, tank top.

Tank top and a gauntlet was all he needed

The armor seems more ceremonial to me than utilitarian or practical. The intergalactic wife-beater was his "get 'er done" wardrobe.

Did he actually wear that in the comics? Or is this a movie look.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I do like his new angry head -- the 2nd head.

Not any type of expert at all on the comics but i think this is what they were going for.

 

[hellgrammite00]

In the comics he never really wore armor, it was more an outfit with some gold elaborations.

The tanktop look is more comic accurate than the armored look, though the comic outfit is a bit ridiculous to accurately bring over to film.

 

[Wor-Gar]

That's his screen look, like it or not, and HT did a great job at realizing it.

But I'll wait for April and see if we get an alternate universe with Armor and Gauntlet. That's not to say the armor might look worse. In which case, I'll pick this one up.

No matter what, I hope I can get a loose 2nd head sculpt somewhere.

If the next version looks great I'll get that too. I don't really mind double dipping. If Marvel has their own movie equivalent of Darth Vader or the Joker, it's Thanos.

 

[Jim Morrison]

Same - this figure is a must for me and I'll be all in on A4 Thanos too (if it looks good and offers something a little different to the IW version).

 

[Cicada17]

I’m in too. I saved rewards points up to preorder this figure day one, and I’m saving them up again for the A4 Endgame Thanos too.

I preordered. I just can't let this one go...

It's true. No Marvel villain comes close to the expert villainy of Thanos.
