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

[Chrono]

I cancelled mine awhile back, but I was thinking about picking it up again when it is in stock with one of those $25 coupons. Not sure how fast he'll sell out though, but since those coupon codes have been given out pretty frequently as of late, I was thinking of taking my chances and waiting for the next one...

I don't know man....Thor don't really seem like a figure that would sell out so fast. But on some BST groups people are letting go Avengers Thor to replace him with this. Man of Steel Supes is an awesome figure, but still people are letting him go for cheap.

Yeah BvsS Superman will replace the MOS one for sure, and imo Avengers Thor is kinda crappy

I'm not so fond of it either. When I had to choose a Thor figure for display, I almost bought the first version. Then I saw this guy up for preorders and I just had to have it. But I have no idea who to display him with as a companion piece. Avengers Loki is the best bet so far.

Yep makes sense I guess

No way B v.S replaces Man of Steel. At least not for me. They knocked it out of the park with the MOS HS. I guess I don't get buying the figs and then selling them off to replace them so frequently.

People have a habit of saying, "Just wait for the next one. It will be better, etc" but there's no guarantees. With some lines you don't know if you'll get a next one, and if we do it's a toss up of whether the sculpt used will be the same, a slight or drastic improvement, or a slight or drastic step backwards.

Totally agree. I've learned through all these years that if your really set on something then get it now or kick yourself later on.

Keep in mind we have seen all releases except the new Loki- chances are he is being reworked.

Dark World Loki

Yep, and there are many sculpts across different lines that are steps backwards from early releases. The Antonio Stark sculpt with the Mk 7 is another example.

True. Would really like to see a drastic improvement in Hiddleston's likeness from the Avengers release, now people are just hoping for the DW sculpt to make par.

Sideshow where is my processing notice??? I want my Thor now!

 

[Mudblood]

I'm reaaaally hoping we get them Monday. I haven't gotten a new figure since The Wolverine and I need my plastic crack fix.

 

[ApeManRyan]

I'm hoping Monday too. After this coming week I'll be heading on my Vacation and I want to get him in before I leave.

Buy now, regret later. That's my motto.

I hope to God he is being reworked. I steered away from a few figure because of the proto pics, but then the figure released looked amazing. Speaking of which, I need to subscribe to that figure's thread for updates.

I agree 100%!!

Sideshow HT deliveries are seriously backed up. All of these are now released in HK yet only the Chitauri have been shipped out.
