Thor PF Ex is coming...

[The Tuggernaut]

$51 shipping to NJ. Crazy...although the box does look huge. Is the complete packaging close to the size of the Hulk PF?

You think that's bad?
From SS to Australia, a 1/6 figure costs more than that.
Think about the Thor PF..........

Ladies and Gentlemen and Freaks, THOR HAS ARRIVED!

Quick Review:

GOOD: He's HUGE, 100 x BETTER looking in person than ANY picture! Very Impressive!!!

BAD: Base has something rattling inside but exterior isn't damaged. ONLY ONE, let me repeat ONLY ONE foot metal peg and it's on the straight right leg. The left foot has NO peg and just rests on the base.

Now, the way it is now he's completely UNSTABLE. What I'm thinking is that whatever is rattiling inside the base has to do with making sure that his ONE peg is appropriately secured on the base because the way it is now, he's rocking and sliding way too much!

The peg goes into it's base socket (the peg is under the heel of the boot and when inserted all you see is the heel) but man is it loose and with the peg leg being loose, it then causes the left bent leg to also be loose and slide back and forth on the base!

That's what i'm guessing, I could be wrong and this is the way he's supposed to connect and whatever is rattling is then a mystery but I sure hope not because there will definately be a-lot of falling THOR's in the near future!

WOW, why they went with ONE peg is INSANE!] for something so huge and on a raised base no less!

Someone already asked me if i'm sure what's rattling isn't a 2nd peg and it's not because there isn't even a 2nd hole on the base for another peg to fit into!

Oh well, I have to say, this is my third sideshow product and 2 out of the three came damaged!

My Captain America from Ebay was fine, well except for some minor paint issues on the shield that I don't know if it's a manufacturing problem or the original owner messed things up but it looks like manufacturing, but my Wolverine Comiquette that arrived straight from SS came with a dented base.

Talk about being bummed out! An AWESOME PF Figure but with a Broken Base!

CRAP!

Here we go, chris freaking out again

Don't worry, they have only just started shipping them and many many people don't have theirs yet.
Give them chance to get them on the trucks

I know, I'm the official Sideshow spaz. I just hate buying pre-order items on eBay. Makes me nervous. But if I had a Thor ex secured through SS, then I'd be MUCH more at ease

 

[Eli26]

KILL THE SIDESHOW SPAZ!

Hello Chris... here's hoping you get your Thor.

I think that rattling inside is a lose or broken peg. My PF Hulk has 2 pegs and I think this should also have 2 pegs but I could be wrong.

Nope. There is only one peg.

 

[makkari1]

Nope. There is only one peg.

That sucks.

 

[jye4ever]

That sucks.

I agree....

One peg was an odd design choice for something so BIG and Tall who also rests on a Tall base!

Doh!

I predict Thor's toppling over.....

with mine being first because I have the extra special base with rattling part inside!

 

[Vader AL]

i pulled into my driveway for lunch as the UPS guy arrived so I luckily didn't miss him. I didn't have time to open him up though, that's for tonight but I did take some pics of his box next to Hulks. Can't wait to open this bad boy up....although I have to figure out what PF's to move where to make room for him.

 

[The Ringer]

The rattling inside may be due to the resin drying up and breaking off. There is rattling in my Thing base and when I contacted Sideshow they said it was a common problem.
