Oh, I like this one. More!

Though on the second thought, that cloak will be difficult to pull off when it comes to action.

That's accurate, about the crafting.

See, in the original mythology as it stood, Loki was responsible for creating Mjolnir after he chopped off the hair of Thor's wife and the rest of the Gods decided they'd had enough of his shit. So he was scapegoated into commissioning the dwarves to make presents for many of the other Gods to make up for it.

But when the dwarves were forging the hammer, Loki was jealous that what was supposed to be the greatest of their crafts was going to Thor. So, Loki turned into some sort of fly (horsefly, I think) and started biting and annoying the main dwarf every time he was heating the hammer. It reached the point that he aggravated the dwarf so badly he pulled it out of the flames early, and it was incomplete.

The original design that was meant for the hammer was to be an actual War Hammer... The kind where the size of the grip was about waist-high, and it was meant to be wielded in two hands for slow, devastating attacks. It was considered a failure for it to be more the size of something you'd pound nails with, but he made do anyway.

Eh. I like Captain America's better. This is just too...shiny. It may be a personal preference, but I think Thor should be a bit more rustic/dirty. He should look like he just quaffed a gallon of ale and he's ready for a bar room brawl, you know?

It looks like he trying to join the new fucking G.I. Joes.

Anyone else think he kind of looks like Heath Ledger in that photo?

Hmmm...fishnet....interesting..

Oh..
Hm....no.
The hair isn't working for me. And it's offsetting the rest of the costume in a negative way.

And that hammer looks ridiculous

I've heard that in person and hopefully on film, the costume will be less shiny. I hope so, because the straight-up pleather pants are kind of wonky. I mean, you couldn't have even attempted to continue with some armor down there to kind of match the rest of the costume?

All in all I'm just grateful it cleaves more closely to the Ultimates Thor design than the original. I don't know how they would have managed to make that watchable.

That's the only way to explain the black fishnet shirt over the tank-top but under the vest.

Fishnet? Isn't that chainmail?

The Mjolnir is my penis.

What are you people talking about? That's almost a spitting image of the current Thor!

I don't like it much. At first glance it looks like a business suit modified to look slightly superhero-y. It lacks the grandiosity of the comic book costume. I mean, where's his friggin' helmet? And I'm more in favor of a clean-shaven Thor. At least partly because it seems like EVERY goddamn action hero these days has never heard of a razor.

So, the Vikings had Pleather?

Kinda looks like they are making some interesting nods to the original costume. KInda getting that vibe from the red stripes on the boots, which look kind of make me think of the old wrapping on Thor's boots from the comics

Would like to see the helmet though.

Chainmail? Hardly. You can see his skin too easily through it. This is chainmail (note the tight weave for protection with minimal skin visibility) and this is goth fishnet shirt (completely see-through, large thin black weave). See the difference?

this costume really sucks, he doesnt look like thor I grew up with there is no color, why the fuck does everything have to be black to be bad ass. He doesnt even have his helmet. the best super hero movie to be made and the kids at marvel dropped the ball
