Thanks for the detailed review JP Sarri! All great pieces but if i could only choose one, it would be the first Bowen Classic Thor action statue because of its dynamic, very detailed sculpt, & excellent paint job. Dig the spinning hammer accessory, flowing cape, & unique base too.

I prefer the one from Kotobukiya.
It’s the one that I choose from a few years ago actually.
The museum Thor from Bowen is boring and looks like a damn statue… No movement whatsoever.
The spinning hammer Thor is interesting but the colors did not earn my love.
When I put all the factors into it my decision was clear.

Best Thor statue ever made in my opinion. So glad I have this in my collection.

It is a statue but it can transmit a sense of movement. And the Bowen Museum does not.

Right because museum poses are supposed to be like that....the one with the best representation of movement is clearly Bowen's Classic Action Thor. The Kotobukiya Thor looks more way more museum like than the two mentioned in JP's videos. Kotobukiya's Thor is just boring compared to Classic Action Thor....the base alone makes it hard to beat.
