Is that the same Ages of Thunder Thor that they released as a SDCC exclusive?

The SDCC version has a helmeted head and an odd grey wash.

Wave 17 version has Doc Samson's head. The paint looks nice though.

Wait what? Doc Samson's head?? They're reusing heads now??? I thought it was bad enough when they reused Union Jack for Hydra Agents.

Do Boy · 08-19-2011, 10:03 AM

Wow a reused head? Man Hasbro is getting cheap/lazy. lol

What I want to know is why we're still seeing the same, awful terrible female bodysculpt.

Dont worry, this is its Last Hurrah. All the females after this use a new one.

Speaking of this wave, Looking to get the Ironfist, Storm, Psylocke, and Patriot. Dont care for the Thor or DD.

rodimus15 · 08-19-2011, 11:14 AM

So why would they give another storm? Don't get me wrong I'd love a all white 90's version but I think mohawk storm is the best that we've gotten.

Good enough for me!

omega145 · 08-19-2011, 12:24 PM

Psylocke - nice addition and would like to pick this up as long as the face sculpt is as good in the picture
Iron Fist - pass, is this any different than whats already out?
Daredevil - nicer sculpt from pics but dont like the colors, he's being made red as well right?
Thor - Pass, will keep my SDCC Thor, I like the head much better on the SDCC version
Captain America guy - I guess ill decide when I see this, not too crazy on the look of him
Storm - Pass, why another Storm? Any difference between this and either 5 pack Storm?

JonnyVu · 08-19-2011, 12:30 PM

What a soft wave...

Scarlet Witch will have the new bodysculpt then, I assume. Newbie question: what are the complaints with this one?

xhavoc86 · 08-19-2011, 12:45 PM

Storm and Psylocke, yay!

sug2763 · 08-19-2011, 12:55 PM

Eh. Might get Iron Fist. Kind of wanna hold out for a 90s Storm with a better mold. The rest are pass for me except for maybe Psylocke.

If your talking about the current female mold. It has very limited articulation. It's also the only female mold and they've used since the very beginning of the line.

Because not everyone buys 5-packs.

I hear you, thanks. A character like Psylocke should be well-articulated.

Very true. Idk why hasbro thought making Psylocke a retool figure would be ok. She one of my favorite characters! Dont get me wrong I'm sure I'll love the figure when I get it in hand but still.

Boba Fettuccini · 08-19-2011, 01:21 PM

I don't mind the body too much, but the arms are obnoxious because they have no bicep rotation.

Then why not make another completely outfit or something else? It's just Hasbro trying to make more money off pre-existing molds, not looking out for their fans and releasing it as a single pack.

Boba Fettuccini · 08-19-2011, 01:39 PM

Well, what if I want this particular Storm, but don't want to buy the 5-pack, or go on ebay? Suppose I'm a kid who doesn't have enough money to buy the set from the Disney Store or a Paypal? We're not the only people buying these.

Yes - I think two. Her cape is different and she comes with lightning this time.
