My classic Thanos arrived today. I dig it a lot. Aside from a wobbly left hip the joints are all nice and tight. I like the alternate king head much more than I thought I would, and it looks great on the old WM exclusive Thanos' body. The subtle blue paint apps are great, and the paint on mine is clean all around. I give it an 8/10. If we'd gotten a ball-joint torso instead of the ab crunch I'd rate it higher.

I'm not sure how I feel about pearlescent plastic. In this case, the gold boots, gloves, and chest-plate/shoulder-pad thingie. I get the effect they're going for, and it's no doubt more economical (for Hasbro) than giving every requisite piece a gold metallic paint finish. The randomness of the "swirls" can create a less-than-desirable result sometimes, though. For instance, the right shoulder "flare" on mine has an effect that makes it looks like there's a crease in it. The left boot on mine also has significantly more "pearl" than the right. Like, noticeably more.
