Hot Toys - MMS175 - The Avengers: 1/6th Scale Thor Official Specs and Pics

[cofphoto]

ok that's way too many toys with helmets for it to not be in the movie....were any of the Avengers Thor figures with helmet?

Thor Dark World at Toyfair.....

I think the helmet is definitely IN!

Strangely enough, I think thor's outfit looks better here than from the actual leaked pics.

Perhaps he can only wear the helmet if he's king. Just a guess. I really don't know.

 

[Remy]

That's a good guess.
Didn't Loki only wear a helmet after he was appointed the new king when odin was in a coma?

Nah he wore his helmet during Thor's coronation too

 

[Remy]

Ah, ok. That's true.

 

[badrat]

Heimdall messes up my theory more than Loki. But Loki did wear one when he "King" of Asgard during Thor. Odin, of course, wears his. Thor wore his during his coronation.

I'm just sayin...

So, teasers for this soon if he's out Friday???

 

[Crimsonbob]

I'd buy a another helmeted Thor as i hate sculpted long hair it just looks daft.

Considering it's still Chinese New Year I can't see this guy being released Friday... Most places won't be open until the 25th can't see why Hot Toys would be any different.

The 25th?

Genuine question:

Why would anyone buy this when HT are certain to have a new & likely better one from Thor 2 up in a short while?

I personally want to complete the entire Avengers line up. As for the Thor 2 version, until we see it, we won't know if its better or not.

Umm, because we do, that's why.

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Fair enough, seems like buying last years model instead of the latest

 

[Ron_Burgundy]

Buy both!! WIN WIN!!

 

[bonestockbrz]

You wont see thor 2 figures till next year....march the earliest...

 

[pauholmes]

If i could I would buy the entire line, including this Thor, but since I can't afford them for the moment, I will choose what I like the most. But I'm looking for in hands pics, I hope the final product looks much more better than what we have seen before

With the rate HT gets these released, it seems we're always buying "last years model".

Personally, with how these comic franchises have been marketed with varying looks, I'd bet money that Thor in Thor 2 looks different enough from the Avengers version that could make sense to own both. Plus, by the time Thor 2 figures go up for PO, we could be looking at spending even more on figures - $189 now might look like a steal by this Fall.

Actually, $189 is kind of a steal right now...

different suits/looks
its like asking why anyone would buy the MK IV when they could get the VI
