Thor's Day

I expect we will re-visit characters many times over in this blog - and hopefully with new collectibles and tidbits to touch on with each post. I'm saying that, because this is the first of what I'm sure will be many posts on the mighty Asgardian, Thor. We are huge Marvel fans, and even though Thor's mythology dates back way before Journey Into Mystery #83, we always think Marvel's Thor whenever we think of the hammer-wielding God. Here are a few really cool Thor collectibles...

The Silver Surfer #4 (1969) and The Defenders #10 (1973)



















We'll spend another post somewhere down the road focusing on some of the best issues in Thor's own title at his long tenure at Marvel. These are a couple of our favorite Thor issues outside of his own series. One he fights The Hulk, the other Silver Surfer - say no more.

Bowen Design Thor Statue (2007)

Bowen Designs did a few Thor statues over the years, and this one is our favorite. Thor stands tall and imposing, and this resin beauty will run you upwards of $400 on eBay (if you can find one.)

ToyBiz Marvel Superheroes Thor Figure (1991)

The ToyBiz Marvel Superheroes line was a fun run in the early 90's, and they produced this classic version of Thor. This figure isn't as rare as a Thor Mego, but collectible nonetheless.

That's all for now... see you tomorrow for Top 10 Friday :)
