 Thanos comes to us via Marvel Select. Think of it as the big brother of Marvel Legends. And speaking of big, Thanos is  ing huge. Granted, he's slightly out of scale with some ML, but that kind of depends on what artist's interpretation you go by. Thanos comes with the object of his affection, Death, which is a nice bonus. The real kicker, is the alternate Infinity Gauntlet hand. In my opinion, it's an awesome figure, and I'm glad I dropped the cash on it.  Comparison shot with the SOTA Balrog. And as promised, a couple shots of Thanos thumping Brian's boy Norrin.   |

I needed a date for a birthday party. You got a problem with that?  |

I needed a date for a birthday party. You got a problem with that? Of course not... I'm probably buying the 6" version... if NECA makes a 18" nancy at some point, I'll probably be a tool and get that too. |

I actually use the movie Sue in my display, since the ML one looks like a soccer mom. Imagine what Chase would do with a big Alba...*Shudder*

Sadly, the movie Invisible Woman is the best one... I am not impressed by the boxed set version. Maybe one day a single ML one will be made that is better...

I need to find one soon. I just don't want to pay upwards of $25 with shipping. Too many people on Ebay try to rape you with absurd shipping charges.

Thanos is amazing. Well worth the more-than-double-an-ML price.

I can think of at least one use for the spare fist sitting beneath Alba Storm.  ;D |

Toss in Dr. Doom and Abyss for a nice BDSM tryst, or Balrog for black bottom-thumping organ rupturing action. In all due seriousness, I owned a Thanos of similar look, but a lot less detail. If I collected, I'd definitely snap up this bugger.  |

Great, now everytime I look at my Sue figure, I think of Chase and a can of Crisco. I think most of you know this, but the Marvel Select figures don't have the the POA of Marvel Legends. I think I counted 19 on Thanos.

I think I counted 19 on Thanos.  It sure beats the six points of articulation I had at my disposal with this Storm. Although, Storm could do the splits better than a limbless gimp stripped of its artificial appendages. |

I never had that Storm. I was at an age where I was still iffy about having toys of girls. Flash forward to now, and the 12 inches of Alba I have on my dresser.
