...erm. *whining warning*

...I really ought to be happy that there is Thor product coming out at all...but its hard to appreciate the fury of the really vascular, yet oddly feminine-featured man...

...I mean, is it just me...?

This version is better, so of course it is the limited variant...and the eyes are still strangely not...right...

...'course, there is always the WWE Triple-H in Thor costume statue...

That's quite a grip he has on his hammer there...looks like he's done that sort of thing before.... [img]graemlins/heart.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/hmmm.gif[/img]

so i am not into thor but damn [img]eek.gif[/img] that first one is um well freakishly scary.
but the second one is pretty cool [img]eek.gif[/img]

Ugh on all of them. Valhalla will be pissed!

The 2nd one (the best of the 3) bears an uncanny resemblance to Don Felder, formerly of the Eagles. He looks like he's about to break out into "Hotel California". [img]wink.gif[/img]

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">...holy crap! Yer right. And his eyes are weird, too.

Just a really disappointing slew of products...and still not a truly great classic Thor action figure at all...

Well if you would only sit still long enow for an image scan... [img]wink.gif[/img]

...its not like the government scientists haven't done everything in their power to catch me...

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">better not let him hear you say that, Andyman.

DA is a very fierce, mean looking demon who is terrifying to behold <font size="1">and also has long pretty blond hair</font>

...yes...I do have long, blonde hair...and I am worth it, dammit! [img]graemlins/grrr.gif[/img]

...but no, I am not a 'pretty boy'. [img]graemlins/whatever.gif[/img]

simply driving a truck doesn't make you "not a pretty boy"... [img]wink.gif[/img]

DA.... A pretty boy... That is wrong on just so many levels you twisted monkeys..

...I'm too rugged, hairy, and scarred to be a "pretty boy". Now, if you care to throw around the phrase "blindingly handsome", I can work with that. [img]graemlins/bat.gif[/img]

And I just realized that the first bust looks like Kate O'Mara. Jor, you remember, the little redhead's governess in "The Vampire Lovers"?

Right, just because you use Loreal doesn't make you a pretty boy. *again snort*

...at least some of us have a full head of hair to wash. [img]graemlins/whatever.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/bat.gif[/img]

You right, DA, she does look like her! Well, a kind of a mildly retarded version of her...

*hauls ass outta thread* [img]eek.gif[/img]

The idea of that second one is so cool... but somehow it still comes off looking like Mark McGuire... like he should have a baseball bat instead of Mjolner. [img]frown.gif[/img]

D.A. whining about upcoming Thor merchandise.... [img]eek.gif[/img]

Ah, Yes, here it is: "Signs of Ragnarok"

Thor's always seemed a tough one to make the transition to other stuff.........

(& look good doing it)

SW, you are correct. I think that a lot of folks who produce 3D representations don't get that he is larger than most of the other MU heroes, and they certainly can't quite capture the facial features--that he should be handsome, but not...well, "soft". The absolute best Thor ever is Bowen's fifteen inch statue, which I cannot find a picture of to save my life...and for a more Kirby-style, Hard Hero's version is a close second.

...that's the guy! One of my proudest acquirements. It was originally a 15" statue, but a couple of years later (around 2001) they made a 10" version with interchangeable heads (original and classic). Anyway, I strongly feel that is the best face sculpt of any 3D Thor product...

DA,

You could always go with these:

*puts the top back on the salt and watches the wounds fester* [img]tongue.gif[/img]

...I do like the Battle Armor Bust, but I am not all hot-to-trot for it. Busts aren't really a top priority for me...and the helm set is very cool, but not for the price Sideshow wanted.

I really prefer full-body statues, and that's why the Triple-H Thor on page one is very disappointing to me, moreso than She-Thor or the other one. But that Hard Hero statue...*drools*

Wait a minute...wasn't that Ragnarok on Galaxy Quest?

looks like even action hero's need cross dressers
