1/6 Hot Toys - MMS 224 - Thor: The Dark World (Thor)

[inked]

I'm certain the armor piece will be corrected by shipment. But the lack of cloth under the gauntlets, and the (too) smooth look of the chain mail bugs the heck out of me.
.

Didn't think he had cloth under the gauntlets in The Dark World, was under the impression they were solid.

I haven't seen it yet, so maybe I'm mistaken.

Just found a reasonably high res pic, definitely look solid

Chainmail in the arms seems to be a little light colored on the figure, but hopefully it's just the lighting.

Even that looks like a cloth material. Meant to ease chaffing, I imagine.

Looks like cloth, but they look tidier than the cloth wraps he had before.

I prefer the cloth wrap look though.

Especially these intricate ones he had in Avengers:

Will they release an Odin?

As many are predicting, no. First one didn't sell that well.

 

[Burning Saber]

Honestly, I'll be surprised if they release anything else besides Loki. Also, really hoping they darken the chainmail, everything I've seen looks way too bright. I will most likely PO as I'm still not sure if I want the armoured or unarmoured version, but it is definitely making me hesitate a little.

I hope so they can release very possible Avengers Character but give us some supporting characters they balk at it

Which is a shame because its a good figure and this time his costume looks even better. To bad they never released the first Loki the three would have made a great set

Loki is for sure considering its basically the Avengers suit minus the golden armor. Kurse or Malakith would be a great addition but you know Hot Toys its the main characters and if the movie makes a billion dollars you get everyone including the extras and stunt doubles

LOL, I wouldn't mind a figure of myself.... I hope The Winter Soldier does very well! haha

Reminds me of an episode from Big Bang Theory.

Without a doubt, that looks superb!!!! Looks like the real Hemsworth there!

 

[gadzoox]

anyone have an opinion on the range of the elbows bending? or if they will bend just fine like an arm, but return back to original position because of the chain mail? I have yet to hold a HT Thor so idk what that chain mail is like for posing..

 

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

This looks so AWESOME!!!!!

So glad i have this sucka ordered

 

[7166charlie]

I just find it so odd that they can get this likeness spot on and look so perfect and get banner so wrong

The general thinking is that these arms are like the Chris Redfield/Dutch /Hulk arms.
There's an internal skeleton used for articulation, with rubber moulded on top in the shape of the chainmail.
It will bend like Hulk's arms. There's no telling how cool it will look when fully bent of course. Only time will tell with that.
