    It might look a little big because I had to use an original Mego type 1 body, I got the same impression when I had to switch it off the type s body myself, but he does Display well IMO

    You are correct it says 3200

    Blake looks the best of the three. I like the material on the modern, but was never a fan of the color design. This would be a real Fraknen-Custom for me.

    Does the hammer have the inscription?

    Great pics! And thanks for a thorough and honest review. I enjoyed reading it. Yeah on the modern Thor it looks like they took a page from Captain Action and went that direction with his hair. His outfit looks very cool though. Like that pattern on his belt. On the retro figure, I was hoping they would put that body curl in his hair so it didn't have that Famous Covers look. They also got a little too close with the pupils of the eyes again. Not crossed but close. The outfit, hammer, and boots look like they were done really well. Donald Blake turned out really good too. I like the outfit and the detail on the stick. Somewhat concerning that some of the outfits are getting produced too small to fit bodies. My Parker pants wouldn't even fit on a FTC body which is smaller scale than the rest, so some QC needs to be addressed here on the primary pieces since they are not replacing defective parts. That and they need to go back to the semi-gloss finish on the boxes like they did with Spider-man. Not a fan of the matte finish. Thanks again for the pics and review. Great job!

    Thor Review... The Good and Bad

    Ok here's my Honest review the good and the Bad... The set looks good. Head sculpts outfits outstanding as usual, I like all the components. The retro Thor looks good but I never open the Retro ones so whatever I see is through the package and I like what I see.
    I know People Grumbled about Dr Donald Blake but I like him, the only part of his Accessories I have no use for is his Surgical cap that's why I left it tucked in his Jacket. The Modern Thor, like the sculpt love the outfit and Accessories, HATE HIS MOLDED HAIR. But only because it keeps it from staying on a body properly... The problem is the neck plug is just a bit short. The Modern Thor will not work on a Type S body without some Difficulty the head stays well on the type s but the outfit is too small for it. I had to use a Type 1 Mego body with no hands, luckily I had 1, but the problem with that is the molded hair keeps the head popping off the body just a tad and keeps you from snapping the suit in the back. But all in all not a bad set if you can get it for $69 or less.
