That's great. The rumors were pretty on-point already so it seemed likely, but this is joyous news. Really hoping he has the size and paints he needs to do him justice!
I've got a good feeling about the Warriors Three in 2025. I can just feel it!
I think there's no reason to believe they'd reissue a movie figure like that. This is the "85th Anniversary of Marvel COMICS" line. I think it will be limited to comic versions.
Could they use the MCU figure as a base, like Iron Monger for Detroit Steel?

The Warrior's Three and the Inhumans celebrate their 60th anniversaries in 2025.
And 2025 is the 50th Anniversary of the Giant-Size X-Men #1/All-New, All-Different X-Men, so I think we all know what next year's main anniversary will be and when we'll get an updated Banshee in green and pinless classic Storm. Plus, it's the 45th year of Kitty and Emma's debuts as well!

I hope so as well. He needs to be both taller and about one and a half times as wide as Thor. Odin has always been depicted as being larger than Thor thanks to his Jötun heritage.

Your keyboard to Hasbro's ears, man.
I only have two minor gripes about the amazing new Ghost Rider:
The plastic chains as opposed to real metal...the original Toy Biz Ketch had an awesome metal chain. I'd use it on the new figure except I sold it over 15 years ago. Stupid.
Also....I don't love the cut-out "headlights." I always thought those were supposed to be solid, not hollow.
Yeah, the headlights look off to me too. Looks like cut-out is a modern design, with the rest of the bike looking more or less the same. I'm in the minority, but I might wait for a sale on that one, and stick with TB if it never comes.
On another note, there's four items remaining, and based on the past, we have to assume 2 of them will be exclusives for Wal-Mart and amazon. Probably safe to assume that Skaar and the two non-exclusives will be going up for pre-order May 7, 14 & 21 (unless they do another day where 2 go up at the same time).
Okay, now I'm terrified that Odin is going to be a Wal-Mart exclusive. 😧

Will Walmart tolerate that degree of paganism?

They COULD, but I doubt they would. I don't think comic Hulkbusters ever got that big? The detailing would certainly be different. I think that with the amount of effort they've been putting into his regular sized armors, it would be a massive disservice to heavily reuse for a new Hulkbuster. There are two distinct Hulkbusters I'd want to choose from: the one that was an offshoot of the Modular armor (same one ToyBiz did) or the one that was an offshoot of Extremis (the one that Marvel Select did). I would NOT want to see the World War Hulk armor designed by John Romita Jr. That one should be forgotten or erased or something.
Trying to think up what look I’m hoping Odin comes in and naturally my mind goes to “well how did Jack Kirby draw him?” but I don’t think even Kirby had a singular consistent way of drawing him.
In any event, a Simonson Odin would be cool, but I do ultimately hope he’s got some cool Kirby style flourishes and isn’t something super modern or whatever.
Got my Wolvies preordered. Thinking about getting that Ghost Rider. Definitely be in for Odin. Warriors 3 multipack long overdue. Would like to get a reissue or improved Sif at some point as well.
For me I'm just hoping Odin is rendered as more shiny cosmic god than drab Viking. The Odin we got, while more faithful to Jason Aaron era, is not what I immediately think of. Definitely hoping for something that's more Simonson inspired. I would like to say I'd take a Kirby inspired Odin but I don't think Kirby ever made Odin look the same twice from appearance to appearance
This is what I’m hoping for personally…
HA! I was just running a few searches for Odin this afternoon and had the same thought. Dude really liked his fancy outfits.
Though, I guess when you're a GOD, it's imperative you dress to impress.
But i agree; definitely SHINY over drab.
I think I like this look the best of the many online. But there's also an all-gold outfit from the cover of Thor #190 where he has the crazy water buffalo horns that could be snazzy?
Currently being reminded that a Marvel Legends Hela figure:
1) exists
2) isn’t in my collection
3) is In desperate need of a redo and mass release
Between the Warriors Three, Executioner, Hela, and Beta Ray Bill, we could just use a whole Thor wave.
