I totally see what your saying. I do agree. they have missed the mark a little. Most people (including me) have complained that they havent released an odin with his helmet. but hopefully we may still get one at some point.
I dont have a problem with the scale of thor when you compare him to other movie figures. look at the pic of him and iron man mark IV below, he is taller, so with tony in the iron man suit making him taller it would make thor around 6'5 or whatever he is meant to be. you are right, next to marvel legends he is on the smaller side but absolutely fine for movie figs i feel.
im not too bothered about a comic book series because there are a few comic thors and amora in MU, but yeh i would have liked to see comic pack sif and the warriors 3, even odin. MU should work on that.
yeh the silly accessories are pointless, its just to entice the kids to want them with things that shoot things. although i would never use accessories like that when i was a kid. it seems to be the standard thing when making kids toys.
i think they have reached the balance of making a great cool detailed figure that the adult collectors would like on the shelf, and will appeal to the kids for the useless weapons that arent even in the film.
any one remember the countless batman and robins and mr freezes there were from the 1997 movie?
just a little bit of trivia for you here. that thor figure you have bought there is a concept training suit he was going to wear in the film but they never shot any scenes with it. theres a similar suit if not the exact one if i rember correctly in the 'art of thor' book. i looked it it in a shop a while back.
