I actually like that he's ugly and brutish looking. Fits a Norse god more IMO
Exactly...he's a freaking Viking, not some pretty boy.

Tell that to Marvel Comics.
Just go to the SSC gallery. There's plenty of pics from various angles on this piece. The shot of him head on is awesome.

I agree. But he doesnt have to look like your common Joe Schmoe that doesnt stand out from a crowd of average looking vikings. There's nothing intimidating about his face. He looks like he's ready to hang up his hammer and replace it with an elderly walker. It's freaking Thor ffs. Make him look bigger than life. To me his portrait is lazy and uninspired. One can say that with several other sideshow pieces as well.

I think marvel is best at 1:4 scale face sculpts...

Not this one.
Last Thor PF portrait was fantastic. Or you meant Marvel's art work over this current portrait?

Not this one.
I love the new cap of head sculpt. Thors is decent but bland. New hulk is awesome.

I'm sorry are people saying this Face sculpt doesn't reflect any of Marvel's depictions of Thor?
Gee I wonder where they may have gotten the idea to give him a chiseled face then...I'll just leave this here.

Good post Josh. I think this is an excellent face sculpt for the rugged God of Thunder. Best out there hands down imo.

I like the face sculpt but their 1:2 face sculpts are basically all perfect. Like a Green Goblin PF with that legendary scale bust face would be so dope.
Yup, this head sculpt rocks! Best one I've seen of the character.

Chiseled? He looks soft rather than chiseled. Superman PF looks chiseled and a manly man. This one, not so much.
Totally disagree with you Orko. He looks like a grisly veteran, not some punk kid. It totally fits a god and a viking god at that.

I actually prefer this face to the supes.

Different cup of teas for everyone =)
So long as the peeps that are ordering this piece are happy with the portrait, all is well. Obviously, those that are not happy with it will be passing on this PF. The best part is that there are other options. XM has just about wrapped up sculpting their classic Thor. He looks great and will make a fine alternative to this PF. For me personally, I love the look of this modern Thor PF and can't wait to add it to my collection.
