MARVEL UNIVERSE VARIANT PLAY ARTS KAI THOR AF


From Square Enix. The Mighty Thor Odinson, heir to the King of the Gods, is descended to the human world of Midgard! In the Variant Play Arts ~KAI~ series, his godly aspect has been captured in every detail of his physique. The contours of his ornamental armor are accentuated by careful paintwork. Each detail of his costume stands out from the next for an artistic finish to this figure. Mjolnir, a mighty hammer that can only be held by one worthy of the power of Thor, has been exaggerated in its size to convey the sense of power imbued in this iconic Asgardian weapon. Whether calling down a bolt of lightning or pulverizing his enemies with a swing of his hammer, this mighty god of thunder can be dynamically posed by combining the wide range of included accessories. This figure also includes an accessory with an alternate facial expression of rage to reflect his brash personality, plus a display stand.

AGE OF ULTRON THOR 
DRAGON MODELS USA

A hybrid between a display figure and a kit, Dragon brings you the best of both worlds. The use of model kit techniques allow us to reproduce the intricate details and sharp lines to maximize the usage of the official 3D character scans. The use of the static display concept ensures that there are no cooling lines on the torsos and no visible ball joints that are prominent in most "action" figures. Additionally, the figures are set in a Marvel suggested pose so that the body portions won't be deformed when the poses are changed.
