For so long we lived in a Thanos limited world in the 6 inch scale.  The only option being the Marvel Select / Lady Death Thanos from Diamond Select Toys, which has always been an outstanding option….but the only one really.  In the Marvel Legends line specifically, we lived in a Thanos absent world.  3.75 Inch plastic had a ton of Thanos, and they were all outstanding.  But now, surely thanks to the success of the Avengers MCU films, we have recently been awash in Legends Thanos plastic.  We got MCU style a few times, some build a figures, a Walmart exclusive (which was my favorite to date).  And today, we get a truly classic style, beautiful, deluxe Thanos.  Tons of accessories, and sporting that dazzling 90s comic aesthetic.  The only thing he’s missing now….is Mephisto…Marvel Legends team, can I please have a Mephisto!!!  …and Lady Death!  I digress.  This Thanos is awesome, let’s go see why!

The Good

  • He’s so clean.  Gone are the modern accoutrements from the Walmart Thanos, and he’s just a smooth character like he was in the comics!
  • This isn’t a repaint of the 2018 Walmart Thanos / 2017 Thanos BAF.  Walmart was a repaint of the BAF.  This is a beautiful mold with none of the modernizations, right down to the
  • CHONKY BOOTS!  Thanos is wearing his butt kickin’ Starlin drawn comic book boots!  I love them!
  • His shoulder guard is permanently affixed, no more floaty, and it looks perfect
  • He’s got the painted on straps, they add further to the exceptional classic look
  • The face is mirthful, joyous, evil
  • He includes a King Thanos head which fits well on and fits on the formerly mentioned Thanos BAF / Walmart exclusive, and it appears to be more fitting on those modern take versions than on this outstanding classic
  • Having this figure in hand is Thanos related pure joy, the best way I can put it, the 2017 / 2018 figures captured a Thanos and did so ably.  This figure captures the Thanos, perfectly
  • Includes 2 alt left hands, both gauntleted, one in a snap position, the other in a grasping position
  • You can pose him like this
  • Ata-Boy Marvel Comics Thanos 'Come and Get Me' 2.5" x 3.5" Magnet for  Refrigerators and Lockers: Home & Kitchen - Amazon.com
  • And that’s all I ever wanted out of a Thanos figure….

The Bad

  • Only the omission of a Mephisto and Lady Death to date, are things I can complain about, this figure is a perfect Thanos and I am awe struck by it

The Rest

Our friends over at Kastor’s Korner beat us to the punch by weeks here, but shipping is shipping.  Happy to say though, I’m at least as enamored with this figure as they were, and for all the right reasons.  This Thanos is a must buy for fans of the Thanos we grew up with.  The Starlin Thanos is beautifully captured here, this is the Thanos many of us have wanted all along from Marvel Legends, and I’m hopeful that through showing the world the classic vibe Thanos, fans go out and pick up the original Infinity Gauntlet series, and even prior and learn more about this brilliant and conflicted character.
