Meanwhile, Cap’s star spangled Vibranium shield looks amazing with its glossy finish. Even with all of that, Steve Rogers’ extremely lifelike facial portrait is the focus point of this presentation, and it can be enjoyed from a variety of angles thanks to expert paint application capturing photographic realism.

ARTFX
THOR ODINSON
~ 1/10th SCALE PREMIER LINE STATUE ~

The time has come for the next evolution in ARTFX, and Kotobukiya is proud to debut the incredible ARTFX Premier Statue line starting with Marvel’s iconic hero THOR ODINSON! ARTFX Premier is a high-quality statue line that challenges the limits of product development by capturing characters in the highest possible level of detail, and that premier quality can be seen in every aspect of the Asgardian Avenger.



This magnificent 1/10 scale Thor Odinson was crafted using digital sculpting, emphasizing his heroic appearance alongside incredibly lifelike detail. From the sculpt to the paint application, achieved through the ARTFX Premier line’s enhanced process of layering with multiple shades, every detail of the thunder god is brought to life with an unprecedented sense of beauty and depth. Part of the design creation even involved imagining what kind of materials might be used for clothing and armor in the realms of Asgard, and that informed the styling of Thor’s unique metal and leather outfit along with the colors that change and shimmer depending on the angle of the viewer. Meanwhile, the Avenger’s face is captured in a triumphant expression, meticulously crafted with lifelike detail.

He comes to you in sophisticated packaging overflowing with detail including a marble-inspired background motif as well as an original illustration based on the figure. Additionally, this limited edition statue comes with a certificate with its collector number printed in gold, certifying each piece is a one-of-a-kind original.

UPDATE POST #1

Ich bin ehrlich gesagt verwirrt. Bis jetzt stand das Siegel ARTFX unter dem Kotobukiya Banner immer für die Skalierung 1/6. Auch die Größenangabe in 10 Inch bei der geneigten Pose spricht eher dafür, das es sich um einen einen klassischen 12 Incher handelt. Das entspricht der Größe von Bowen Designs, die zwar zugegebenermaßen eher 1/7 Scaler sind, aber gerade deswegen wäre diese neue Linie auch für mich nicht uninteressant.

Ich verstehe immer noch nicht wie das Label ARTFX mit dieser Scale beworben wird. Das macht überhaupt keinen Sinn.

ARTFX
IRON MAN
~ 1/10th SCALE PREMIER STATUE ~



Based on the “Fresh Start” series’ Tony Stark: Iron Man #1, the armored Avenger is on the case and ready to defend the Earth. Iron Man is captured mid-flight, and his dynamic posing can be interpreted differently depending on the angle from which he is viewed; at times he appears to be flying through the sky at top speed and at others launching himself off a rocky outcropping. Thanks to the new and upgraded craftsmanship techniques that exemplify the ARTFX Premier line you can see and appreciate every single layer, panel, seam, and technological detail of the intricately sculpted and painted red and gold Iron Man armor. Combined with the glossy coating that catches the light beautifully, the contrast of the shading makes each piece of the armor pop and gives Iron Man a great sense of depth. Best of all, the sculpting of the Arc Reactor on the chest and the translucent panel on Iron Man’s abdomen show off the suit’s inner workings, adding another unique layer of beauty and detail to this one-of-a-kind piece.
