Thorbuster Ironman is a new suit we haven't seen yet in the line. The paint is rather tame, just some red over yellow but that's how the suit looks. He moves at the arms and neck, which could allow for a sweet Ultimo custom... He's nice and tall and feels bigger than normal Iron Man figures. Overall a decent figure, but not essential to anyone's collection. C+
Thor is a repaint. Last time I said "Say what you will about his new duds, this is a great representation of the God of Thunder. His hammer conveys the image of motion and works in a variety of poses. And he's not pointing this time! A excellent, and needed, upgrade but I know not everyone agrees with me. A" I still stand by most of this, except I prefer the blue swoosh opposed to the clearish gray one this figure has. A good figure, but if you bought him with Ares, no need to grab a second one. B
Props to Hasbro for at least packing Thorbuster Iron Man with Thor!

 As a two-pack, this one makes a lot of sense. Sure, the Thor figure in this pack should have technically been the Lord of Asgard Thor. But this is a better version of Thor than that one. He isn’t a bad figure; he’s just an uninspired repaint that looks weird with clear lightning on his hammer. Thorbuster is another fine addition to the armory and is a comic-accurate design, so that’s better than some of the other weird suits that have been released. Full review: jestergoblin.com/?p=6528 |
