The edge of the hair is weird!!

Headsculpt is impressive, together with the helmet.

However, the costume overall looks like a very bad miss on marvel studios' part. Odin is the all father, but that doesn't mean his costume should be so similar to Thor's.

However, kudos to Hot Toys for the likeness anyway.

Hey Alex, did you purchase soldier story's US Marines in Afghanistan figure? how was it? is it worth getting?

Hi Joshua, Soldier Story does great military figures and the one in question is no exception.

I didn't get it because I'm now concentrating on the movie-related figures but it's definitely one worth getting if you are considering.

Hey Joshua, the Soldier Story USMC in Afghanistan is an incredible figure! I liked it so much i bought two of them!!! It´s awesome, you won't regret buying it!

Somehow this looks better than Thor...

Maybe it will be explained in the movie (or maybe not) but why is Odin wearing Loki's characteristic helmet?

Sartorial choices aside, that's a very good likeness of Sir Anthony Hopkins.
