Mythos Anime Studio Norse God : Skoll MA08L [Broly Red Version]

Description

The Mythos Anime Studio Norse God: Skoll (MA08L) is a high-end 1/12 scale action figure that represents a unique, dark-fantasy reimagining of the character Broly (specifically his Super Saiyan 4 form) from the Dragon Ball universe, blended with Norse mythology.

In this line, Broly takes on the persona of Sköll, the giant wolf from Norse myth who pursues the sun. The MA08L designation specifically identifies the “Red Version” of this figure.

🎨 Design Concept & Sculpt

The figure is part of the “Beast Deities” collection (often associated with Kong Studios) and is designed to bridge the gap between classic anime transformations and mythic deity aesthetics.

• Aesthetic: Features the iconic SSJ4 furred torso and long, wild hair, but with a more “feral” and god-like finish. The MA08L version is characterized by its vibrant crimson fur and matching hair.

• Digital Sculpting: The muscle definition is hyper-detailed, intended to capture the “Legendary” bulk of the character while maintaining a slim enough profile for high-range articulation.

• Texture: The fur on the chest and arms is meticulously textured to catch light, giving it a premium look that distinguishes it from standard PVC figures.

⚙️ Key Product Features

The Skoll MA08L is designed for adult collectors, emphasizing complex articulation and a wide array of display options.

📋 Technical Specifications

• Scale: 1/12 (approx. 12–14 cm / 5.5 inches tall).

• Model Number: MA08L (Red Version).

• Wave: Norse God Wave 3 (pairs with Hati MA11L).

• Packaging: Collector-friendly window box with custom mythological artwork.

• Accessories: Display stand, aura effects, hair pieces, and a variety of hand/face parts.

🔍 Collector’s Note

This figure is highly praised for its paint deco, which uses a metallic or pearl-essence finish on certain parts of the hair and armor to evoke the feeling of a “Beast Deity.” Note that the hair assembly can be intricate due to the sheer volume of the sculpt, but it provides one of the most imposing silhouettes in the 1/12 scale market.

The “Red Version” of Broly most prominently refers to the Super Saiyan 4 Limit Breaker (or Full Power) transformation, a form that appears in the Super Dragon Ball Heroes promotional anime and is the direct inspiration for the Mythos Anime Studio “Skoll” MA08L figure.

This version represents Broly at the absolute peak of his primal Saiyan power, blending the Great Ape’s ferocity with god-like energy.

🧬 Visual Design & Physicality

The “Red Version” is defined by a striking color palette that deviates from the standard Super Saiyan 4 look:

• Crimson Fur: Unlike the pinkish-red fur of Goku or Vegeta, Broly’s body is covered in a deep blood-red fur, symbolizing his “Legendary” status and more violent nature.

• Scarlet Hair: His hair is extremely long and wild (similar to SSJ3), but it takes on a dark red or maroon hue rather than black. In the “Limit Breaker” state, the hair often has a metallic or glowing sheen.

• Massive Frame: This version emphasizes Broly’s “titan” proportions. He is significantly taller and more muscular than any other SSJ4, with a chest and shoulders that appear nearly twice the size of a standard Saiyan.

• The “Evil” Eyes: He typically lacks pupils, featuring blank white eyes (or sometimes glowing yellow) that indicate he is in a state of pure, uncontrollable rage.

🌩️ The “Skoll” Mythological Connection

In the Mythos Anime universe, this Red Version is dubbed “Skoll,” named after the wolf from Norse mythology that chases the sun.

• The Wolf Persona: The red fur is treated as a “beast pelt,” leaning into the wolf theme. The design suggests a deity who has consumed the sun’s energy, which is why his power manifests as a burning red aura.

• Celestial Hunter: The lore of the figure implies that this Broly is a cosmic predator, a “Beast Deity” tasked with (or destined for) bringing about a celestial eclipse through his sheer destructive force.

⚔️ Abilities in this Form

• Limit Breaker Aura: His energy is so dense that it manifests as red electrical sparks and a flaming aura that can distort the space around him.

• Gigantic Roar: A move where he fires a massive red energy blast from his mouth, combining his Great Ape instincts with his ki.

• Invulnerability: In the “Red Version,” Broly’s skin is often depicted as having a metallic durability, allowing him to walk through enemy attacks without flinching.

🎨 Product Highlight: Mythos Anime Skoll (MA08L)

If you are looking to own this version, the MA08L figure is the definitive representation. It captures the red fur sheen and includes translucent red lightning effects to simulate the Limit Breaker aura. Mythos Anime Studio Skoll (Red Version)

Broly is unique in the Dragon Ball universe because he exists as two distinct versions: the original non-canon antagonist from the 1990s films (Z Broly) and the reimagined canon character from Dragon Ball Super (Super Broly).

Each version follows a different evolutionary path of transformations, blending Saiyan heritage with uncontrolled, “legendary” power.

🟢 Dragon Ball Super Broly (The Canon Version)

This Broly is a mutant whose power stems from his ability to harness the Great Ape (Oozaru) strength while remaining in human form.

• Base Form: A tall, lean warrior with dark hair and several scars. Even in this state, he can adapt to combat rapidly, reaching the level of a Super Saiyan through sheer raw talent.

• Wrathful State (Ikari): * Appearance: His hair stands up like a Super Saiyan, but remains black. His eyes turn yellow (like an Oozaru).

  • Details: He channels the 10x multiplier of the Great Ape form without growing in size. This state makes him extremely volatile and hard to control.

• Super Saiyan: * Appearance: Classic golden hair but with blank white eyes (no pupils).

  • Details: Triggered by the death of his father, Paragus. In this form, his power eclipses Super Saiyan Blue Goku and Vegeta, forcing them to fuse into Gogeta.

• Super Saiyan Full Power: * Appearance: His hair turns a vibrant lime green, and his muscle mass increases significantly.

  • Details: This is his ultimate canon state. It is a fusion of his Wrathful power and Super Saiyan energy. He becomes a nearly indestructible force of nature, comparable to a God of Destruction.

🟡 Dragon Ball Z Broly (The “Legendary” Version)

The original movie version is defined by a “legendary” mutation that grants him an infinitely rising power level fueled by madness.

• Restrained Super Saiyan (A-Type): * Appearance: Due to a mind-control headband, his hair appears purple, blue, or teal.

  • Details: His power is suppressed, yet he was still capable of destroying the Southern Galaxy in this limited state.

• Super Saiyan (C-Type): * Appearance: Standard golden hair, but with a slight greenish tint.

  • Details: This is his natural Super Saiyan state without the restraint of the crown.

• Legendary Super Saiyan: * Appearance: Massive, hulking muscles, blank eyes, and yellowish-green hair.

  • Details: This is the iconic “Broly” form. Unlike standard Saiyans, his power does not deplete; it continuously overflows, requiring him to expel it in massive “Omega Blaster” energy spheres.

🧬 Non-Canon & Video Game Forms (SDBH)

In Super Dragon Ball Heroes and various games, Broly’s power is pushed even further:

• Legendary Super Saiyan 3: Features the massive muscle mass of his LSSJ form combined with the waist-length hair and lack of eyebrows of Super Saiyan 3.

• Legendary Super Saiyan 4: * Details: Features the crimson fur and black hair typical of SSJ4, but with the green-tinted aura and blank eyes of his Legendary state.

• Dark Broly: A version of SSJ4 Broly controlled by a Dark Dragon Ball and wearing a Time Breaker mask.

• LSSJ4 Full Power (Limit Breaker): His most powerful non-canon state, featuring a purple/pink glowing aura and power that can challenge Multiversal-tier threats.
