Hasbro’s 2015 Marvel Legends line-up starts off with their Avengers Infinite Series and includes Thor, Hawkeye, Iron Fist, Machine Man, Scarlet Witch, Captain Marvel, The Sentry, and Odin as the build-a-figure.
Thor is sculpted in his Marvel Now! costume, which isn’t as detailed as the one that Diamond Select Toys came out with recently (review here). We understand that Hasbro has some limited tooling options to pay for fully tooled figures and partial tooling, but they are offering a just ok Thor figure here. One can argue that at least it’s not another Captain America, Wolverine, or Iron Man figure, but we would have actually rather seen a new armor for Iron Man used in this slot than this Thor figure.
Availability: February 2015
Sculpt & Paint:
Thor uses a lot of parts from the existing Thor figure from the Terrax wave, and includes a newly tooled head and arms. The wings on the helmet are wider and comes with side flaps and is non-removable. The face sculpt looks wide and the cheeks look stretched, and he has blue eyes and blonde hair.
His costume is painted black with a shiny finish on the chest, silver, brown, and a red cape.
Articulation:
Standard for Marvel Legends.
Accessories:
Sword, hammer, right leg for Odin.
Overall:
Thor is a decent figure, but we would have liked to see some more new tooling, or this slot could have been used for another Avengers character.
Highly Recommended (only because you need him for the build-a-figure piece).
