one thing is certain with Hasbro, they can't do beards, I get that's hard, it's a plastic figure and beards are hair, hard to make it look realistic, but boy oh boy does this beard look like it's just some glued on fakeness..but then again could be the photos I have not seen this in reality, I apperciate they did this line of "face updates" but maaannn these figures are all just new heads on old bodies it feels so hurting, the old body wasn't bad it's just it feels so grubby mitts-esque, "hey kids look at this cool new face, don't look at the rest" I;ve said this before, this wave is a placeholder wave, any MCU figure is at this point, they will make this better in another 5-10 years, so this will eventually just be in a bin somewhere at some point for all you MCU collectors, they will make a better movie Thor.

It really is the "Malibu Stacy with Hat" syndrome, and we have become the cliche for falling for it. LOL

This Thor is the one I'd have wanted all along.........but I have about 4 other Thors with weaker likenesses already. I get that going back to the well is an opportunity to get it right one more time for Hasbro, but................well, I'm tired. I applaud the work here, the sculpt and paint are excellent, but it's a bit too late for me to grab my wallet.

Great headsculpt, will be getting this. I would have liked some new body parts too, but whatever, there is hardly any new parts in this wave.
