Has anyone felt the need to repaint the skin parts, to fix the tone? Anyone got that done?

Nothing at all. He's in there solid and doesn't even wobble if you try to move his body.

Hasn't bothered me since day 1, to be honest.

Paint is perfect because it’s based on God of a Thunder Esad Ribic art. He uses those tones all the time in his stories . Hands down best story and art of Thor ever done . The God Butcher nuff said!

As for leaning, zero issues . The statue is amazing

Cross country skiing is great if you live in a small country.

Yeah, always dug this sculpt but the fab cape holds me back. I know some display him without, but I need a fully sculpted, caped Thor. But a beautifully designed action Thor, ringing Bels.

I am the same way. The fabric cape is complete garbage, just a wrinkled mess. I should not have to "steam" and mess with the cape for a long period of time to get it to look good. It is just cutting corners by Sideshow in my opinion.

I am one of the people that just display him without his cape. The statue is absolutely amazing and no one even notices he is not wearing a cape. This is the only Thor I will need in my collection, the rest have been sold.

The nice part of displaying Thor with no cape is it’s still comic accurate as he many times in Ribic art is not wearing the cape . It would have been great to have sculpted cape but it’s weight concern or possible cracking over time . If they use diff material like pvc like material we may not like that either . I would have loved to see metal hammers as it is a PF and XM always does metal parts on their weapons . It’s a classy touch

Occassionally I use a fabric protector for the cape, it will greatly prevent the fabric from fraying and deteriorating. I highly recommend it.
