I'm in. We also need a new classic Thor badly. I hate the OG Thor. He looks old and fat. Reminds me of Alex Ross's work and I'm not a fan of Alex Ross. I can't stand the old fat super hero thing. Grinds my gears... lol

the original pf's have grown on me quite a bit, for a while i didnt care for them at all but looking at them now - cap, thor and iron man were all incredible. hulk is awesome as well, i wish i had a chance to see them in person

that said theyre all $1000-1500+ so gots to go with a new one. prime1 is also doing a cap, a more modern take which i dont mind so well see what happens... brace yourselves for conspiracy theories

Cap can lift Thors hammer in the comics.

Imagine if this is Evans Cap from Infinity Wars and Sideshow have leaked the fact he uses Mjolnir in the film.

I'd love an original GOTG 1:5 scale team line.

If that were true I'd probably go into some kind of nerd coma.

EDIT: This right here....this would be so amazing

I have the Modern, while the Classic Costume is cool, when they showed the Modern suit with Coipel's art I just loved it, so it was a no-brainer when they made the PF.

I have the original so I'd prolly pass but it seems strange that they would do the same pose again.

Oh wait the other leg is up, never mind.

A conclusion is simply the place where you got tired of thinking.

Sideshow just killed it with that PF.
I think the mixed media on the OG Thor definitely looks better than the mixed media on the Colossus and Cap. I do agree with you though it would probably look better fully sculpted. Don't know if you are on FB and in any of those FB statue groups but there's a custom of Thor fully sculpted where he's in an action pose bent at the knees with his hammer ready to strike. I believe it only comes as a kit unpainted but I could be wrong. I think that version of Thor looks the best to me right now.

Yeah to me, Lobo is probably Sideshow's best use of mixed media but I'm also partial to the OG Gambit.

I think LSF is a better bet judging from the size of the base.

It would make sense. If any one is worthy of lifting Mjolnir, Cap would definitely be on the list.
