As much as I love the Cap, I have to admit this Thor is on a different level altogether.

Since you have Cap, you'll see when you get it. It's not just the base.
Everything on my sample is just that much more refined and polished- from the sculpt to the paint.
It's also 100% indistinguishable from the prototype (with one caveat*).

Epic. Definitive. Classic. Comic. Thor.

It's a struggle to resist posting about it every few hours.
I can't wait to read everyone else's thoughts once they get him in. At that point I'll be down to posting nothing but "Yup!"'s.

Congrats indeed, to anyone else fortunate enough to have this coming.

*They did make the hands appropriately larger . That was one of the few consistent criticisms early on.

I do not know if it is due to Gem Mint's light but I think the skin is too yellow

That's his lighting/camera settings. He even says as much during the unboxing, when he's holding the hands up.

The skin tones on mine are darker than some flesh tones on most of the Sideshow pieces I have (except Wolverine who looks like he's covered in soot), but they're very well done, with a lot of subtle coloring and shading going on. The kind of work that tends to get washed out or shifted with a flash.

Several pages back there are pics with a flash vs no flash.

My English is not that good, so I don't always understand everything ( I am working on it).
Thank you.
