He is covered in armor, boots and tunic without being "puffy" similar to the original Sideshow PF. Bent legs in a half crouch. Also doesn't look like a thick dwarf to me. It's got great detail and I still like it, base too.

Maybe you must see him in person, i had at SGCC19 never that feeling.

The pose makes this hard to display properly . This is a diorama more than it’s a Thor solo piece . I love the armour and paint but something lacks with his cape . I can’t put my finger on it

What I can put my finger on!

Is that XM in the last few weeks have put a fair few things on pre-order. You would think on a time like this when the world is in crisis and most of the world population is in some sort of lockdown eg. no income coming in and need to consider saving for essentials like Food.



And here is XM putting out all their stuff right NOW!... ???


To me it feels like they've got a hidden agenda like maybe they need to pay off their own debts by putting all this new pre-orders right now while this mayhem is happening around the world, why can't they wait until it's all over and the world goes back to some sort of normality and the average person is in a better position to purchase these sort of non-essential items.

It's polystone, not world domination.

Statues are available to order for YEARS before they actually ship. Calm down.

God forbid a business continue to operate.

Personally, I welcome the normalcy of a preorder window opening.
