The detail is here is incredible and the addition of some new effects and accessories make this a solid update to the previous Hot Toys Thor figures, including the Avengers: Infinity War and the Avengers: Endgame variants of the God of Thunder. (Sadly, Hot Toys’ Thor: Ragnarok gladiator sixth-scale figure is now sold out, although you can still find a few of them kicking around on eBay).
