Rarity
Uncommon to Rare; highly sought after as the first 'movie-accurate' Loki with the curved horns.
Head
Light Flesh minifigure head with a cunning grin and raised eyebrow. Double-sided with an alternative angry/shouting expression. Topped with a Pearl Gold helmet featuring long, curved horns.
Torso
Black torso with detailed green and gold aspherical armor printing. Features the Chitauri-influenced chest plate and strap detail. Reverse features back-printing of his coat tails and armor plating.
Legs
Dark Blueish Gray legs with black hip piece. Printing includes layered armor plates and green fabric highlights on the front of the legs.
Accessories
Traditional bright green soft fabric cape and a Pearl Gold curved scepter (Chitauri Scepter) holding a trans-light blue jewel piece.
Color Scheme
Primary Black, Dark Green, and Pearl Gold. This palette reflects Loki’s regal but villainous status in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Printing Details
High-quality pad printing on the head, torso, and legs. Features significant detail for 2012, capturing the complexity of the screen-worn costume without arm printing.
Variants
Variants include sh837 (2023 version with more detail), sh711 (TVA Loki), and sh095 (without a cape). The sh033 is the definitive original movie version.
Condition Notes
The Pearl Gold helmet is prone to stress marks on the horns and minor scratches. The fabric cape can fray at the edges if handled frequently. Check for chin-guard wear on the head print.

Character Background
The God of Mischief from Marvel Comics and the MCU. This figure represents him as the primary antagonist of 'The Avengers' (2012) while working for Thanos.
Design Notes
The 2012 helmet mold (part 95246) was a breakthrough, perfectly capturing the massive scale of Loki's horns which became an iconic part of the figure's silhouette.
Similar Minifigures
sh011 Thor, sh095 Loki (no cape), and sh632 Loki (Avengers Tower version).
Collectibility
High. Loki remains one of the most popular MCU characters, and as the original 2012 version, it holds high nostalgia and investment value for Marvel completionists.
History
Launched in the summer of 2012 during the massive Marvel Super Heroes theme debut. This version established the gold-and-green aesthetic for all future Loki figures.
Interesting Facts
Despite his importance, this specific torso and leg combination was only used in three sets, and the gold scepter piece is frequently lost by collectors.
Display Suggestions
Best displayed in an Avengers line-up or inside a 'Hulk Smash' vignette. Use a clear acrylic stand to highlight the flowing green cape.
Modification Potential
Excellent for purist customs; the head can be swapped with newer, more detailed Loki face prints while keeping the classic armor and cape.
Overall Assessment
A corner-stone of the Marvel LEGO collection. While detailing has improved in recent years, the sh033 version remains the 'classic' MCU Loki that most collectors prioritize.
