Even though the real-life Sven-Ole Thorsen stands at 6'5" and Arnold Schwarzenegger is 6'2" the accessories shown in Super7's photos are still comically huge.
The Atlantean Sword prop is barely over three feet in length and Thorgrim's hammer was a few inches shorter than Conan's sword.
I noticed that the photos of Thulsa Doom figure show the daggers sheathed on his waist, and they appear to be the correct size, so the images of the accessories on their own have to be out of scale. It's even more obvious once I noticed the alternate heads are also not shown to scale.
I went back to check photos of the prototype Conan figures shown at Powercon and the weapons look silly big there too, so I'm really unsure what to think. The only thing I'm certain about concerning these figures is that I don't like em.

I will say, the sword does look cool and detailed though. I'd like to get the figure just for the sword.
If you only want the sword and don't mind painting, there is a MUCH cheaper option. Check out the Shapeways seller called Stranger than Fiction and find their Atlantean Sword- there's even two sized options. Sculpt is great, detail fantastic, and even if you get it printed with the most expensive material, it's only ten bucks.
