Hands should definitely be larger. They look out of scale. They look almost 1/6-1/5 on a 1/3 figure.

Otherwise, very nice!

If I'm not mistaken I believe that's not a dragon, that's the world serpent from Norse mythology. It looks to me like many of the other elements on the base are Norse mythology based as well.

I bet XM is still salty they couldn't make that traditional Norse thor from a few years ago. I am too tbh. That was exactly what I'm looking for.

If anyone from XM or Legendary Beasts Studios sees this then please make a Bob Layton style Classic Iron man next to complete the big 3.

In another thread, SonicCobra said that Caleb N. was going to do a line of viking related statues. Hopefully one of them looks suspiciously close to that Thor that was cancelled.

I think the dragon is either Fafnir or the World Snake. I can see what you’re saying although I’m fine with it. I love the base and the mythology it depicts. I feel somewhere between Thor and God of War

The base art is indeed based on Norse mythology but also it's based on the famous Walt Simonson run of Thor, in that run Surtur attacks Asgard which is depicted on the base, Thor battles Jormungand The World Serpent, Beta Ray Bill is on there who is a Simonson introduced character, the 3 Norn sisters of Fate have a storyline in his run as well.

I think it will be around what their Captain America cost. To be safe I'd add on $100-$200 more. Not counting shipping and taxes.

The Captain America was $1175 USD plus whatever shipping ends up being - probably ~$200USD, so ~$1400USD total for Cap.

My guess on Thor is it will be $1500 USD plus shipping.

IMO $1500 for this 1:3 Thor, plus shipping is worth it. He is amazing and a solid anchor for any Thor collector. There isn't any other company doing 1:3 Marvel, right?

Prime 1 hasn't released anything, only DC and video games.

If there was a 1:3 Storm that looked this majestic, I would buy it at this price.
