It is too soon to see Thor figures at discount but I'm certain these were made so eventually they will get sold - one way or another.

What we've seen with GI Joe is that "international exclusives" usually become "discount exclusives" given time.

Transformers is largely the same deal, with some of the rarer end-of-the-assortment stuff showing up there too. I've seen practically zero IM2 regular figures or MU stuff, so I hope there's not some reason they can't go to discount...
