1/6 Hot Toys - MMS 224 - Thor: The Dark World (Thor)

Wolverine has two full outfits and his spare hands come with metal and "bone" claws.

More than justifies the cost to me

This is the wooping truth. And buying them anyway is the exact reason why everything has become so inflated!

I've said it in several different threads recently, EVERYTHING in the high end 1/6 licensed game is $10-$40 overpriced (HT of course being the main culprit). I understand that things have been improving each year and the price would continue to hike accordingly, but I think they hit the plateau last year but prices continue to rise. There really is no way for me to make logical sense out of why the DX12 was $260, the DX11 I think was $275..... and Winter Soldier is $250

When you put it in perspective like that...ouch. Especially the DX11 compared to TWS.

But damn is this Thor didn't come out fantastic. Looks exactly like the prototype - something that doesn't happen too often.

I'm sticking with the regular version. I'm a little disappointed that the "Light Armor" version has bendy arms. I expected the same articulation tech in the arms of both figures and that the "skin" would be the only difference, one metal and one skin.

The elbows on the Light Armored version are too rounded when the elbow is bent. It looks more like a bent tentacle than an elbow.

Yeah , The Clipper King's review is great. Recommend it... I know that he light armor version is more limited but for me I prefer the regular edition.I don't use any extreme poses anyway

They are all overpriced, yet we buy them anyway

So true!!

 

[Darkseed]

So true!!

It's a love / hate thing....

 

[Josette]

At least they still look amazing for the most part....

The head sculpt for this figure is so amazing, really makes me wish I could get it. But with everything coming out and not liking TDW Loki, I couldn't even justify considering this one right now. I would have no where to even really display him.

Now if HT gave me a Sif.... Then I could have someone to display him with!

I would love a Sif figure, really hope we get one for Thor 3.

 

[Brainiac]

Yeah they should kill off Jane and give Sif a bigger role
Jaimie Alexander >>>>>>>> Natalie Portman

Portman is a waste......I'd agree with you.

My video on the Light asgardian, i'm definately happy with it. No need for me to get the regular one.
