The fact that Thor is set to be released in this line and not Loki seems like poor planning, especially since he was the main antagonist of the film.
I guess they feel like their 1/4 scale line hasn’t been doing good enough for them to keep up the line. Their thinking is probably that collectors have been indoctrinated that 1/3 scale pieces can have a wide spread in relation to pricing. From PCS to Prime 1 to JND.


Just look at Iron Studios, they pretty much ended their MCU line with Falcon Cap and Wanda.

EDIT: Forgot about their Gladiator Hulk.

If that’s Will’s review, his main issues were the weak magnets, and the crappy staff light up. And apparently you can see the neck seam, but that’s if you’re looking from above, not straight on.

Yes, that was it. I am still very impressed by the likeness and the general look of the figure. Shame about the magnets but still looking forward to receiving it

I feel the same.


If I have weak magnets, I wonder if I put a stronger tiny magnet in between the two, if that would improve the situation. Given that the costume is fabric, it’s not like it’ll cause any unsightly seams.

No harm in trying. Let me know if it works! But hopefully the magnets will be better this time and there will be no need.

Well I expect to receive mine soon, as Sugo just got me to pay off the balance on my order.

Amazing! The shop I got mine from (from Europe) told me May/June but hopefully it arrives sooner as others seem to be getting theirs now. Please, share photos if you can when you receive yours! 😀

I’m not sure how fast or slow European retailers are, as a lot of the collectors here are from North America. So most here order via Spec Fiction, and unfortunately they can receive their pieces anywhere from 3 to 18 months later.

Here’s hoping your retailer is on the shorter timeframe. As I’m guessing most who are receiving theirs now are either from the South East Asia and Oceanic regions, and or YouTubers…..
