Fixed.

The fawning over this 'taking a dump' headsculpt once again, amuses and bemuses me in equal measure.

Nah

At the moment I'd rank the figures like this;

Best: Captain America
2nd: Hawkeye
3rd: Nick Fury
Worst: Thor

tbh none of them blew me away but Hawkeye and Captain America grew on me as the day went on, if anything as the day's gone on I've started to dislike Thor more and more

I'm hoping that Black Widow turns out horribly as well and then I can just get Cap, Ironman mrk VII & Hulk but if Black Widow turns out good then I'll have to get her, Hawkeye (which I do like) & probably Thor (just because he'd look better in the collection than Fury)

Reckon if I did get Thor I'd try and get a second headsculpt from the first figure and use that instead, it's not perfect the first one but it's better than this teenage werewolf looking Thor

Yep, ordered this to go with C.A. Not really bothered about MKVII Iron Man unless its really special, Hulk is a must IMO, also contemplating a Black Widow. Would have liked to pay for Thor in full as I had the PayPal funds in place, but not to worry.

Can't say I am fan of the latest figure (Thor) either. I only currently have Superman and am a Hot Toys rookie but decided to put layaway deposit down today with OSB for Capt. Hopefully I can get at least Iron Man to go with him.

Not gonna bother with any of the updated figures going to stick with my original MK III Battle Damaged Iron-Man, Thor and Captain America, just waiting for the HULK now.

Colour me indifferent. I've got the first Thor, and like it enough to miss this one. Tempted by Capt. America but not this. Hulk, maybe, but price will be the factor.

No, no, the free Thor is mine.. ;-)

Seriously though, big thanks to WaiMan for even running these promo's. Good to see some company's rewarding loyalty with offers of actual use.

Very pleasant surprise that Loki is next, I figured when the Thor version of Loki was cancelled we'd be waiting for ages for Loki but I guess not. He's going to look bad ass next to Red Skull in my detolf

I'm thinking the reason we are seeing him so quickly is because they spent ages working on the Thor version already before canning it so I get the feeling it's just basically that figure with Avengers logo's on the box & slight update to the Headsculpt & outfit.

Seeing how we don't get a Tony Stark, just Iron Man I doubt we will get a Bruce figure.

Maybe the Hulk's body can be deflated and re-inflated, lol

I've been thinking about putting in my first order for a Hot Toys collectible with this round of Avengers figures and see a lot of cool mentions about One Sixth Bruce, unfortunately, it looks like I'm too late for Loki =(

I've been looking around and ToyHQ still seem to have a good price for it (can't find a mention of their shipping costs yet). Anyone here had any experience with them?

Cheers!

I know ToyHQ - he's a good bloke.

Price of shipping should be on the listing I think

Cool, thanks for the recommendation
Found the shipping cost near the bottom (doh), seems a little steep but still balances out ok overall.
