The ‘Avengers: Endgame’ Toys Show Thanos Wielding A Powerful New Weapon

[Potential spoilers for Avengers: Endgame]

As someone who’s still perturbed that the soundtrack for Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace spoiled the death of Qui-Gon Jinn weeks before the film was released — there’s a track that’s literally called “Qui-Gon’s Noble End” (to be fair, it wasn’t THAT noble) — I would not blame you for not wanting to know anything about Avengers: Endgame, which comes out on April 26. But for everyone else: the toys are here! There’s Captain America as an adorable Lego, Captain Marvel getting ready to blast some photons (even if it looks like a wad of gum), Hulk in his form-fitting spacesuit, and so much Thanos. Considering his absence in most of the teasers, it’s nice to see the “intergalactic sociopath” again,” who’s wielding a new weapon in most of his toys. Like here:

Here’s his Hot Toys collectible figure.

In all these, and many more, Thanos is wielding a sword, or what IGN refers to as a “dual-bladed weapon that very much fits with Thanos’ philosophy that everything must be perfectly balanced.” The sword appears to be real and not an intentional fake-out (like much of the trailer footage), considering it appears on Marvel’s official website. Thanos’ new tool of destruction is even part of his Build-a-Bear, which also features a “5-in-1 sound chip so you can hear this famous villain’s sounds.” How many of the five sounds are Thanos on the toilet

He’s the cuddliest of killers! Endgame toys should be available at a Toys ‘R’ Us near you, but uh, maybe not. Maybe check Target instead
