Loving the classic design but unfortunatly I'll be passing if that's a cloth cape.

At least this gives me hope for a Classic Iron Man as they have now recently done classic Cap and now Thor.

Cool classic statue, sweet base (frost giant?), but fabric cape ruins it for me.

Need a companion Beta Ray Bill PF to go with it, looking forward to that reveal during the 2027 12 days event.

Bloody hell! ... Yes!

Have to still see the whole sculpt, but I am stoked! If the body sculpt is well done, a fabric cape won't be a problem.

Agreed!

If a statue has a shotty and poor quality paint-job, you can always get it custom painted to look amazing...

But if you get a cheap pajama looking cape, your kinda stuck with that! I really think Mixed Media is severely outdated and has ruined a lot of potentially iconic statues over the years. Not my preference and a bad looking aesthetic overall.

I think they should just keep mixed media on Hot-Toys figures only*

Fine Art Statues should be fully sculpted in my opinion.

Will not be getting this Thor because of the fabric cape.

Fully agree, Sideshows cut & sew department should be retired so we don't get anymore cheap looking, awkward to pose, dust magnet capes.

I'm still annoyed they slapped one on the new Doctor Doom PF as I love the sculpt of him.

I like it. Nice classic costume. Not surprised at another Thor though.

STILL NO COMIC IRON MAN!!!!

Although this makes me think if they do one it?ll be Classic? I already have the Classic Comiquette, I want a modern Iron Man in action pose.
