I bought the God of War Ragnarök collector’s edition!
I didn’t preorder it because I still have ptsd from Cyberpunk so I bought it second hand!
And OH MY GOD I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!
It’s SO beautiful!
So I’m going to show you some pics and review it a bit:
The box itself is so beautiful, and with so many details! (It has Gróas prophecy on it)
And the main reason why I bought it: MJÖLNIR. Oh gods, this is STUNNING. You guys don’t know how breathtaking it looks irl. It is REALLY big and heavy. I just can’t get over how detailed it is!! I’m literally so lucky I found it💛
Freyr and Freyja ‘s figurines are very detailed as well. The steel box is so pretty and aesthetic looking. And the dice are cool too (though I’m not really into that types of games)
I love it!😍

Thor’s Hammer Amulet from Viking era Discovered in Sweden
Archaeologists in Sweden say they’ve uncovered a “one of its kind” Thor’s hammer amulet.
The well-preserved Thor’s hammer — officially known as an torshammare — was discovered in Ysby in Sweden’s Halland province and likely dates back to the Viking era, archaeology experts said.
The intricate charm mimics a Mjölnir, which is the hammer used by thunder god Thor in Norse mythology and brandished on screen by Hemsworth’s superhero character.
This amulet appears to be made of lead but may have previously been covered in gold or silver, according to the Kulturmiljö Halland cultural history museum.
Experts said it was likely worn as an amulet or a piece of jewelry, adding: “You can see a hole in the shaft where it may have been attached to a string or strap.”
The hammer likely dates back to the 9th to 11th century when Christianity started to spread throughout Scandinavia.
Archeologists speculated that the amulet could have been worn as a marker by someone who still worshiped the gods and Norse mythology.
While similar amulets have been discovered across Scandinavia in the past, it’s the “only one of its kind” found in this region.
The discovery was made as archaeologists were inspecting the site of a future housing development.
Their search also uncovered flint chips, ceramics, metal fittings, pits and hearths that possibly date back to the Viking Age.

Thor’s Hammer
I have not forgotten about Stargate! I’m just really slow 😂 But I’m so ready to see our heroes once more and (hopefully) a new planet! Season 1, Episode 10, let’s go:
Oh boy, report time!(sarcasm) Jack looks like he has my level of enthusiasm.
Ooo more aliens!
WHAT is with the pictures being used for illustration 😂 Yes, we’re talking about Thor, so here’s some 90s sci-fi book covers to prove our point.
Teal’c with the insider knowledge for the win!
This sounds ominous.
Daniel is so eager - got his friendship box and just leaving the rest of the team behind lol
I’m unclear why the people at the gate are laughing? Their exit wasn’t that funny.
Um, team? Now might be the time to get away from the humming giant hammer.
A scanner?
No! Teal’c!
Whoops, there goes Jack too!
Why did everyone run away? Shouldn’t they be less afraid after the magic scanning hammer?
Wow, Daniel, just ‘they’re dead’?? That’s a leap 😲
Ah, they ran to get their leader.
“You’re a little short for gods.” Aw, I like her.
Sam On A Mission.
Not dead, yay! It would be hard to keep going with a show that just killed off half their main cast.
Ugh. Could have done without the Junior Check.
Did Thor just beam in?
Wait, is this a voice mail?
Yeah, that’s not a person.
Wait, I thought the hammer was at the stargate? How many hammers are there?
‘Hall of Mohair’ Okay, that’s pretty good and now all I can think of is a cavern lined with records and ‘70s outfits. And a giant hammer.
Wait, what are the hand thingys? Have we seen those before? I don’t remember them? It has been a while since I watched this show.
Didn’t even say thank you! How rude.
Ooo former Goa’uld, got it. Oh, that’s what the second hammer does! Not great news for Teal’c, though.
Hey, that’s right! They can just run all the Goa’uld through the hammer like an assembly line. Problem solved!
What the heck is that?! Some form of alien crocodile?
Those horns don’t look very efficient for drinking tbh
That’s a convenient thunderstorm for omens.
The cave broke the fire stick?!? Truly this is a terrible day.
Teal’c’s onboard with the Goa’uld Assembly Line Plan, too. Good, I think he has the most common sense out of our intrepid quartet.
I’m getting the sense that Sam is not the diplomat here 😂
Well, that’s good news! At least one host survived and connived her way out.
Good thing they came on a day with a thunderstorm.
Is that the Creature From the Black Lagoon?
“Weapons are of no use here.” Jack promptly fills him with lead. Nice.
What is The First One? First of what? First Goa’uld?
Ooo, guess lead is not a successful deterrent.
Vampire Goa’uld! A concept I did not know I needed, but am very happy to have. Imagine if this is what Dracula looked like, but Jonathan thought he had a skin condition and it would be Rude to comment about it, especially since he was a Client.
Of course Teal’c, you also thought the Vampire Goa’uld did not exist... gotta say this conversation is not super comforting, guys. Although the little beat before Teal’c says ‘I think’ was hilarious. Also Jack’s quip about putting a stake through it’s heart.
Aw, Daniel is so sweet on his wife. I hope she does show back up. And gets some lines.
Yeah, I’m going with he’s not dead, guys. Should have tried the stake.
That’s a really cool dam scene! Aquifer? Something with water. It’s a neat set piece.
Sam and Daniel arguing feels like a disturbance in the force.
Weapons can’t kill him, but they sure do slow him down.
Team Science Nerds found it!!
Hm, this looks like a pretty official cave room. Sadly no mohair records, though.
Did Jack forget about the second hammer thing?
AH
Okay, found the second hammer thing. Poor Teal’c.
I’m so glad Space Vampire gets a villain monologue. I feel like we don’t get those in shows anymore.
Come on,shoot him just a little further into the painful red hammer thing!
No! Teal’c!
Ah, Jack to the rescue.
Team: 1. Space Vampires: 0.
Not that this family moment isn’t sweet, but couldn’t they just knock a hole in a cave wall or something and patch it up once everyone’s out? Like there’s no time limit with the Goa’uld Vampire gone, they could go back to Earth for help and explosives.
Poor Daniel.
Did they just leave this world unprotected?
Okay, at least they’re thinking about this as well.
And Daniel gets to share his box! He’s so excited.
Rating: 🔘🔘🔘🔘
4/5 Gates New planet, potential for new aliens (possibly coming back in the future if the thundercloud is to be believed and Thor gets Daniel’s box?), Space Vampire, learned some more lore, what more could I ask for? The cave did take the fire stick out of commission, which is just a crime, in my opinion. Also, I think I’m holding out on 5/5 gates for something truly status quo changing. But overall a really good episode, I enjoyed it!
