Hot Toys MMS146- Thor (Chris Hemsworth) 1/6 Limited Edition Figure Full Specs + Pics

[Uncanny Web-Slinger]

Any pics of the Avenger Thor head on this figure?

I can't even look at this figure because it looks so good with that mod. Alas, I have neither the skill nor the courage to attempt any alterations to my figures. Well done.

If you want you can get the stuff and I'll do it for you, no cost. Unless you want to drop off in person then you can buy me a beer and wait while I do the mod.

That's a sweet offer right there!

Just curious though why would people completely mod out the old with new armor, body and even head sculpt instead of just buying the avengers version??

Is it cheaper to just mod the original?? It seems like after getting all the parts you would end up paying more to mod then if u just sold the original (at a loss even) and just buy the avengers one.

If you have parts just lying around I get it, but u still have to buy the avengers version parts

It was cheaper for me to replace certain parts as i love the helmet on my Thor and i'm not keen on him without a helmet on.

Most just replaced the silver chest armour which cost not a lot to do, the rest is still the old Thor body, head, clothing and all.

Ya that makes sense.

I've heard the helmet fits over the new avengers head sculpt. Pretty cool if that is the case

Does it oh i didn't know i had a spare but sold it ages ago lol.

Still i'm very happy with my updated 1 anyway and i will grab the next Thor or Avengers HT's Thor .

Any pictures with arms bent at the elbows?

 

[karamazov80]

I modded my Thor tonight using the new vest and arm sleeves from the new Thor, and it is such a great improvement. Considering that I like the likeness of this Thor better, and considering that Thor needs his helmet on my display, this is a better option for me than buying the new Avengers version. . .just hoping I can keep fighting that urge to pick up the new one anyway so I'll have separate pre-Avengers and Avengers displays for these guys.

 

[playboy409]

so the old Thor body will still look good with the new Thor arm sleeve armor? If it does, then I would be very tempted to do that mod (not myself cause I suck, I may have to take Steve74 up on his offer)
BTW, Steve74 is a very trustworthy guy. He did my Thor helmet mod for me after I screwed it up myself the first time. Great guy right there. And your new Thor mod looks fantastic!

 

[BB&WSF]

Updated my Thor figure with the Avg Thor body and sleeve armor. I'm very happy with how he turned out.

The mod looks fantastic Steve!

Did you use the under shirt/pants that come with the new body?

See for yourself:

The mod isn't very hard to do. You just have to use a little elbow grease to pull the sleeves way up the arm. Like YB said, there is a hidden seam that is glued along the back left side of the armor. You pry it off, take off the armor, remove the stock sleeve/shirt, put on the new Thor sleeves and vest on top of it, put the armor back on, and reglue. I didn't actually re-glue mine, because the cape hides where the seam was unglued, but I may eventually.

Yeah, old Thor looks so nice with the new sleeves. The only thing I haven't figured out how to do is fix the weak ankles. I thought about trying Avengers Thor shoes on original Thor to see if it makes a difference, but haven't tried it yet. Those weak ankles are my white whale....

 

[Iceberg66]

A must do to this mod. Go grab your chainmail

 

[karamazov80]

You considered putting a coat of fingernail polish or hot glue on the foot peg, letting it dry, and then re-applying the shoes? That's a trick I use for loose necks.

 

[youbastards]

I did that on the ball that plugs into the leg and it didn't help, but I think I may need to try that on the ball that plugs into the shoe.

 

[karamazov80]

You could also try some cotton to fill out the space.

I used the new boots, pants, undershirt, arm sleeve armour and gauntlets on mine,everything else is the old Thor.

 

[playboy409]

just bought a new chain mail from the new Thor. I'm goonna try this mod myself. Hopefully I don't mess it up...

 

[kl241]

Updated mine... Helmet mod, elevated cheat armor and repaint the arms to metallic silver...
Thanks all for the tips

I like that mod even better than using the molded rubber Avengers arm sleeves. Looks more natural.

 

[youbastards]

I painted my original Thor armor silver quite a while ago, and can say for certain that the Avengers armor sleeves are a much bigger improvement for the figure. The original armor looks like sweater sleeves in comparison.
