Worldbox X Onetoys OT019 Man Of War (God of War Kratos)

[DioramaMaker]

Hope Ekia gets theirs soon. I really want this figure sooner than later.

Onetoys had made an announcement saying that the spear, cloak and mimir would be pre-sale bonuses, but it's still strange that it didn't come with the cloak in its package, especially as it's unopened

Yea it had Mimir & spear & everything else just no cloak. There wasn't an announcement for just that combo if I remember correctly. If I'm wrong someone will tell me I'm sure and I'll accept I was wrong but it was advertised as new unopened. Now I'm not so sure I could be wrong maybe. Someone will let me know

Not all of them come with cloaks and the cloak spot will just be empty. You get 2/3 of the the parts if it isn't the complete pre-order edition. For example this guy didn't get a cloak but did get the spear and mimir because it's not the "complete" pre-order edition:



This box doesn't have a seal or anything on it, so it would be hard to know if it was actually opened. Was all the plastics removed or something?

Pretty impressive final figure. I think it looks better overall than the Mondo one, but I do think I prefer just having sculpted ropes on the gear hanging off the belt like the Mondo one had, just for ease of assembly; it probably took me over an hour to successfully tie aesthetically pleasing knots out of these tiny "ropes". I also thought the promo photos had a magnetic shield attachment, but that's not present in the final release. I found it a real pain to get the chains to stay around his arms without sliding off just from the weight, which I think would've also been helped with magnets in the arms, but I managed it in the end.

Anybody struggling with bending the elbows, it's not because of the leather sleeves, the elbows are just obnoxiously tight. I completely removed the sleeves so I could bend the elbows a few times and loosen them up and I've never come as close to feeling like I was going to snap a joint just trying to bend these arms for the first time. But after loosening them up they aren't terribly difficult to bend even with the sleeves, though obviously the range of motion is still pretty restricted.

This was the first time I'd heard of OneToys, so it's a pretty strong first impression. I see previously they focused mostly on wrestlers and gangsters but hopefully this marks a shift toward more stuff that aligns with my interests.

Wait how is the shield attached without the ugly bracket thing it comes with? There are no magnets on this figure like the mondo one.

I just used some sticky tack. The bracket thing is super ugly and conspicuous and I wasn't about to use it lol.

Mine will probably also come without the cloak. This is very frustrating because this cloak makes all the difference to me, I don't care much about the lance

I just bought the cloak of this Kratos from an Ebay seller at a very good price. At least I won't have to worry about my Kratos coming without a cloak anymore

 

[spaceghost2000]

Mine from Kit came in, he looks terrific in person. Few gripes about the articulation but I don’t mind too much, he’ll look good in subtle poses.
Only annoying issue was the leviathan axe was warped in the handle and the blade, will try some hot water but I’m sure if it doesn’t help Kit will assist.

I have more of an affinity of the OG Kratos from the PS2 days but I must admit this figure looks awesome.

 

[Hologram AI]

This figure is a beast. Nice height over other figures, detail on all the clothing and accessories are sharp. Few cons that I have with the figure but nothing terrible.

Wish the elbows weren't so tight but once I took off the gauntlet, it was much easier to bend it around. The cloak, while nice once put on, feels really fragile. Just removing it from the box had some fabric pieces falling off of it. The Mimir head, money bag and knife could have used a better method of attaching to the belt. Having to feed the fabric through the belt and tying them off was annoying. Also small nitpick but I would have liked for there to be a way for the blades of chaos to attach to his back the way they do in-game when not in use.

I'm thinking of weathering up the figure a bit and getting a snowy base. Probably sprinkle some fake snow onto the shoulder area of the cloak as well. Very happy with the figure overall! I really wish they had done Thor or Atreus to go along with Kratos.

Pre-order bonuses for a figure like it’s the latest Ubisoft or EA game

 

[Space Jockey]

So if the original pre-order went up in late 2022, what was the cutoff date to get all three extras? I ordered mine from kit just before his cutoff. I've seen a March 20 date mentioned, which would have been 2023 I think?

 

[Godfather1408]

I ordered mine from KG last year way after that period, I'm curious if I'll still get the bonuses.

Kg posted a photo and the box had a sticker on it. I'm wondering if that's like a Sideshow Exclusive sticker kinda thing?

 

[Chopper Face]

This really is a glorious success of a figure but I’ve had to sell it straight on.
I’ve never actually played the games- just really like the character design and am a Christopher Judge fan- plus I’m downsizing and trying to prioritise only collecting characters I’m really connected too.
Add all the InArt invoices dropping at once along with buying a flat and right now I just need the money more than a really cool God Killer.
Everyone who ordered is certainly lucky to have this.

I ordered it as soon as it was up on OSK and got everything, there was no sticker anywhere.

Honestly, this is one of the best decisions I've made in this hobby. Gone are the days of buying nearly everything (though I still buy more than I should probably). I've probably sold close to 300 figures across my entire collection in the last couple of years and still find stuff that I start to consider not being a necessity anymore.

Yeah I look around at certain areas of my collection and just think- ‘I never actually spend any time with these figures… Why do I keep them?’

It’s tough finding the sweet spot. I love LOTR so none of that is going anywhere- and that’s the largest subsection of my collection.
Then there’s Star Wars, and most OT & ST stuff just feels obligatory even though I could have much cleaner displays if I just picked a few characters to represent the franchise.
I also like variety in my collection but end up buying stuff for the sake of it, because I enjoyed a movie or show briefly, or because the figure simply looks cool and well made (like Kratos.) They have no real lasting impact on me though.
It’s a journey this collecting game.
I’ll get there eventually.

What was the price of this figure at retail?
