As for Thor himself, he's way better than I expected. I only wish that his elbows and knees could bend 90 degrees, if not more. Even with single joints, I know they can do better than 60 degrees or less which is what I'm getting out of him. Otherwise, solid sculpt and paint. Quite please with this purchase.

Hmm that's great to hear about the new hips. They're like 4H DCUC hips but with higher thigh swivels. Or like Toy Biz Marvel Legends pre-wave 6. Heh I remember opening ML wave 6 brown costume Wolverine for the 1st time and thinking something was wrong with mine due to those ball hips at an angle. Not a big fan of those.

Sad thing is, that IS the War Machine armor but repainted for Cap.
