Same here. I never thought it was that weird... Just shows that he isn't a savage throwing an angry closed fist/bent arm out in front to throw his hammer, but a prince with royal form.

An awkward lead wrist is seen a lot in the MLB for pitching as you go from pointing your glove at the target to bending your wrist and torquing/pulling your arm closer to your body, and then crunching the front side of your abdomen in order to coil your body a pitch with velocity and accuracy.

Javelin throwers as well

Never thought of it that way :lol That's really good, "I dub thee 'hammered'!" as he tosses or swings Mjolnir at his foe :lol :yess:

It has been well portraits in books and movies that those of royal blood are trained to fight s different way. Game of Thrones portrays it well.
 
back in April I said "I personally think it makes sense if you wanted to swing a heavy item with your right and you were on steps that is the motion you would naturally make with your left"

Not only taking Savages baseball comparison but also Joshs Javelin once again I say that he looks natural.

I sometimes test out poses where I find the same footing etc. and go through the motions. This is one statue where I did this just to make sure how I perceived him was genuine because of so many comments saying it looked weird. Of course even though it is accurate to how one would look mid swing people can still not like it. I however do appreciate it.
 
Well if you think about it, the JLA has multiple variations. The Trinity, B-S-W. The Core 5, B-S-W-G-F. The Original 7, B-S-W-G-F-A-M

Who are we to begrudge the Avenger's a "Big 4"?

I think it becomes a Marvel core 5, not specifically avengers. My core that make up my dream team are Hulk, Cap, ironman, Thor, spiderman and wolverine. Now when it comes to collecting, I am going to get as many as possible.
 
I had to buy a new laptop for school, I hope this guy gets delayed another month or two. Sorry, but I need it to recover funds!
 
You should call SSC to delays your order for at least a year. Then a couple of months later call to say you want to cancel all. Why suffer my friend, hehe.
 
I can handle the hand and wrist buy I'm still struggling with the legs and those pics serve the hand argument fine but don't do his leg posturing any justice.
 
This is an AWESOME looking PF as is (well, maybe just come up with a better EX feature). I wouldn't change a thing and I can't wait to add him to my collection. I truly believe he's going to look phenomenal when displayed.
 
Agreed. But people keep talking about the anatomy of throwing the hammer, etc, but what's to say he's not in the process of catching it?

I won't say it's impossible. But I don't think he'd have that pose whilst catching the hammer but who knows. Maybe he was running up the steps preparing to catch the hammer mid slam? I could see it

This and Lobo look great as mixed media pieces. However, I wouldn't mind seeing what they would have looked like fully sculpted. In the end though I think they turned out AWESOME as is and PO'd them because of it.
