Normally, I’d be very, very sad about the exclusion of Jeff Goldblum from anything. But when a lineup of movie-based action figures looks this great, well, I accept that Marvel will have to find room for the ‘blum in a later assortment. Because the Thor: Ragnarok figures are already going to include:
Only the greatest, most Hiddleston-y Loki figure ever…
A two-headed, hella good Hela, who looks more than a match not only for Thor, but even Cate Blanchett‘s previous action-figure incarnation as Lord of the Rings‘ Galadriel…
Oh yeah, and Tessa freakin’ Thompson! (Available only in a two-pack with variant Thor, but who’s complaining?)
Along with an additional arena Thor, these figures round out a wave that also includes comic-based figures of Jane Foster Thor, Odinson, and Marvel’s Ares. Collect them all and you’ll gain the pieces you need to build a large, movie-based “Planet Hulk,” or whatever they’ll be calling him specifically in the film…
Hasbro smartly revealed this prior to Comic-Con, thereby allaying any suspicions fans might have had that the Battle for Asgard set might all be repaints; you’ll still need to grab one if you want Bor, Malekith, and Ulik.
All Thor: Ragnarok figures should hit stores this fall, with the Thor/Valkyrie two-pack being a Target exclusive…and incidentally, since this is the first of the Thor movies to get its own line of Marvel Legends, you might say it’s a…Banner year for the Odinson.
Check out the packaged pics below, and tell us in comments which one would win your makeshift gladiator battles!
