About this deal

but why not just say Queen Valkyrie? Is there some Asgardian rule that says you have to be a King?" Here’s a look at Gorr which was shown off in the official trailer. Very creepy, and I’m a big fan of his aesthetic. Valkyrie is a nice addition to any Minifigure collection with her all-new printed Asgardian armor, head piece, and hair mold. She’s got a blue cap and a roman sword as accesories.

While moulded goats remain desirable, I think actually assembling these magical animals was appropriate here. After all, Toothgnasher and Toothgrinder are significantly bigger and stronger than typical goats, pulling their eponymous boat at remarkable speeds. Admittedly, their printed faces seem odd, but these designs convey great personality and the goats' different horns are perfect. New Asgard has become a tourist attraction during Thor: Love and Thunder, seemingly toured using interesting vehicles like this one. The wonderfully-named Goat Boat looks excellent and measures 43cm in length, including the goats, which is larger than I anticipated. This dark tan colour works nicely and the presence of dark tan highlights is attractive, without overwhelming the traditional wood construction. Here’s a look at the stern, which is shaped to look like twin serpents or dragons. I was really impressed by the build techniques, and the nice part usage (antlers, and open studs for the eyes) which make the twin dragon heads look very expressive. I didn’t quite quite like the design of the goats, especially the legs, which are quite floppy and dangly, which became annoying after awhile. While they tie The Goat Boat’s entire look together, I prefer the ship without them. Every figure in this set is either completely new or has at least a new printing or change to an old design. As for our debut figures, there’s Gorr, the big bad guy of the movie, Valkyrie, and Mighty Thor, or Jane Foster.It’s rare to get the film’s director (Taika Waititi) to be a supporting character, and even rarer to be immortalised as a minifigure, but that’s the Korg experience. Valkyrie (played by Tessa Thompson) is technically King of New Asgard, and features updated torso and leg prints as well. Here’s a look at the two main protagonists, Jane Foster as Mighty Thor, and Thor Odinson in his snazzy new blue and gold suit. All aboard! NBA 2K23 is ready to set sail on Current Gen consoles, and you don’t want to miss your chance to stay on this year’s luxury cruise liner. Last year, NBA 2K22 introduced an all-new Neighborhood, taking place on the Cancha Del Mar. The vessel sailed through uncharted waters, taking you and fellow hoopers on scenic excursions and hosting whale-sized events. The Neighborhood will once again call a luxury liner home in NBA 2K23, but the Cancha Del Mar has been replaced by The G.O.A.T. Boat. Thor’s Viking longboat – LEGO® Marvel The Goat Boat (76208) inspires action and adventure from the Marvel Studios’ Thor: Love and Thunder movie Innovation [3]– Nothing new introduced, but I liked what the designer did to re-create the longship’s shape

It’s remarkable how much room there is, as it encourages plenty of different scenes, and ways to display the characters on the boat. Special thanks to the LEGO Group for providing this set for review 76208 The Goat Boat – Set Details In each of these cases, it still serves to define the position of a nose that doesn’t exist. Unless you put the helmet on one of the Western natives. Or Timmy. Timmy, smiting the naysayers with Mjolnir. You’re welcome for that mental image."Like any LEGO Super Heroes / Marvel set, the main highlight and drawcard of the set is the minifigures, and The Goat Boat does not disappoint at all in this department, with a perfect character lineup. Longships were designed for relatively short voyages, so enclosed cabins were unnecessary. Even so, this structure matches the aesthetic associated with Viking architecture and features crossed bargeboards. The dark red stripes on the walls look brilliant too, while the combination of tiles and plates across the roof provide satisfying texture. Dominating every game mode and rival player on The G.O.A.T. Boat never gets old, but if you’re looking for more to do, you’ll be happy to hear that Quests are returning in NBA 2K23. On the Cancha Del Mar, players had the opportunity to explore the cruise ship by interacting with NPCs via Quests. This year, you’ll be able to explore The G.O.A.T. Boat in a similar fashion, but with some added tweaks.

The Goat Boat’s size is also one of its most surprising traits, as the official photos don’t do the ship’s length justice, and it only dawns upon you when you’re building it that it’s quite a sizable model, which allows for plenty of playability with the minifigs included.

It’s a pretty basic “vehicle” build, but doesn’t try to be more than it is, with the Viking Longship being the chief focus. I really like the latest version as she looks so badass with her armour, and her hairpiece is a much more accurate reflection of Tessa’s on-screen character. For those of you that played NBA 2K22, the G.O.A.T. Boat will be its own unique version of what the Cancha Del Mar cruise ship neighborhood was but with just that much more to offer. Let’s jump right to it in the next section. NBA 2K23: What’s new in G.O.A.T. Boat? The ship’s build is sturdy and attractive. Its design is heavily reliant on the studs-not-on-top technique, and both sides of the boat are held on by plates attached to horizontal studs, as well as the dragon heads at the front of the ship.
