XM Studios News

"XM Studios is excited to present our next Marvel Premium Collectibles series statue, Modern Thor! The very skies tremble in his presence. He commands the mystical hammer Mjolnir to protect Asgard and Earth. He is the son of Odin, Prince of Asgard. He is the God of Thunder. He is Thor. This beloved character is immortalized in amazingly detailed 1:4 scale cold-cast porcelain. Each painstakingly handcrafted statue is individually hand-painted with the highest possible quality finish. Don't miss out on adding Modern Thor to complete your collection!

Thor was born to the King of the Asgardian Gods, Odin Borson, and the Earth Goddess Gaea. He grew up in Asgard under Odin's tutelage and trained in his footsteps to one day lead Asgard. Besides Odin, his stepmother Frigga and his adopted brother Loki are the only family he know, alongside his best friends Sif, Balder, and the Warriors Three.Throughout his youth, Thor tested his limits on dangerous missions and became worthy of the Uru hammer Mjolnir, using it to save Sif from the Death Goddess Hela."

But what we’re seeing is just a snapshot in time, this battle could be quite fast paced. Thor doesn’t stop and pose, we just have a snapshot of him running up and about to come down and smash in a quick, continuous movement.

Don’t display it from the front/forward face. Display it at an angle at eye level and you can see just about everything that needs to be seen.



Even on a shelf you don’t have to stand in one place to look at it, you can move left to right and get different views. For anyone feeling adventurous you can get a lazy Susan/turntable. Yes, space varies, but they can’t pull off a vision with each person’s individual space limits in mind. Need a smaller or taller Thor statue, there’s other options and some of them look decent.

Just my opinion I don’t care to change anybody else’s.
Extremely well said. I agree completely and that's how I will be exposing mine.

I didn't order this one because if you don't put it exactly on eye level or a bit above, you won't see his face looking too much down, especially his eyes.

Statue is awesome but hard to display.

Congrats to the future owners.

I like this piece but I prefer the classic look. I like this look too but not enough to pull the trigger. Not enough money to go around.
