Believe it or not, this is a toy… A toy that I want..

By Sara ‘Babs’ Lima

Recently, the high-end toy manufacturer has been working on cranking out many of the characters we saw in The Avengers. We recently gave you guys a closer look at Captain America, and we’ve also pointed to both the Thor and Iron Man figure. But you can’t have the entire cast of heroes and not have a villain to go along with them, am I right?

Sideshow Collectibles revealed high definition promotional images ofthe upcoming Hot Toys figure based on actor Tom Hiddleston’s portrayal of Loki in The Avengers. We have to admit, the likeness is not only uncanny; but the expression on Loki’s face is so menacing it would make anyone quiver with fear — well maybe not, but he definitely looks cool.

Sideshow isn’t just giving us a simple figurine, oh no. This “Sixth Scale Limited Edition Collectible figure” will come with not two put seven hands, two daggers, a mask, a helmet, a scepter and of course, one pair of shackles so you can re-imagine the blockbuster film. Like so many of the Hot Toys Sideshow Collectibles sculptures, Loki is limited edition, which means limited in quantity. He can be yours for $219.99 or a payment plan of $73.33 per month. Loki is now available for pre-order and will be shipped in December, 2012. What do you think of Loki? Pretty cool? Is this something you would like as part of your collection?

Uhhggg… I haven’t even seen the movie yet and I really want to see The Avengers— but my goodness, I SEE LOKI EVERYWHERE.

Oh you little God of Mischief! I didn’t pay any mind to you until this past Friday’s reveal of your 1/6th scale figure that you can pre-order at Sideshow Collectibles. Your sculptor and painter did such an excellent job, I just HAD to ogle you. Alas-!! I don’t have the budget this year to pre-order you~! My major investments have already been budgeted for Anime North, Litch King Arthas statue, and I already bought Black Rock Shooter…

Well… Thanks to your “Hot Toys” figure, I really want to see the film now…
Well, I’m off to ogle your prototype some more!! :’D


But seriously, the sculptor and painter did a supreme job at capturing Loki in a 1/6th scale! He’s definitely going to be on my “To get” list. Can’t believe it took a sculpture of the guy in order for me to be like: “HURRR DURRR… UR CUTE.” to the “real thing”… But it really is amazing to see him so well sculpted!
