So I'm minding my own business in the toy section (sheah, right) at the local Takashimaya department store, when I chance upon a whole load of Thor The Mighty Avenger movie 3.75" figures going for clearance at 1/2 price. Sure, it wasn't the excellent S$5 deal from another department store, OG. But lo and behold, they had this Thor figure with the helmeted head going for S$9.90. They also had a bunch of deluxe Blaster Armor Thor (unwanted) and Ice Attack Frost Giants at S$12 a pop.
Army builders!
A couple of Frost Giants and a Thor later, and I'm a happier man. (Does the dance of joy.) I've been waiting to get the helmeted Thor for a long time now. Ditto for the Frost Giant army. And just when I wasn't really looking at all, I find them! Both and the same time too, to boot.
Am I happy with them? Hells yeah. Especially since this helmeted Thor has the proportion of helmet-to-head ratio the way I like it. You only have to look as far as the Thor 6" Thor figure to find a ridiculously small helmet, while the helmetless version has just been released in the Avengers movie line as a Walmart Exclusive!
So I'm thankful I found Hammer Smash Thor in the wild on the cheap, while not having to agonize over if/when I'd be able to have helmeted/helmetless Thor heads in 3.75" scale!
