Marvel Legends figures, Funko Pops, Lego sets, and more abound in this thunderstorm of new toys.
While the first teaser trailer for Thor: Love and Thunder might not have pleased everybody, there was definitely one thing that might be worth getting excited about—or should I say one person who’s going to get mighty? I should, because Natalie Portman’s Jane Foster returns, Mjolnir in hand, as the Mighty Thor both in the movie and this treasure-trove of brand-new action figures and collectibles featuring the other Thor, the villain Gorr, and more. It’s quite a score! So mighty she must be referred to not as Thor but as the Mighty Thor—so as not to confuse her with any other, less-mighty Thors who might be cluttering up the place—Jane Foster’s turn as the Goddess of Thunder looked perfect in the teaser, and looks perfect here. And look how big Mjolnir looks in her tiny hand! Ms. Mighty will come with an alternate, unmasked head so you can see her in all her Jane Foster-y glory as well. Now the question is, how did Jane get her tiny hands on the hammer? Captain America returned it to 2013 at the end of Endgame, meaning it should have been crushed again by Hela in Thor: Ragnarok. Hmm… The less exciting thunder god is clearly trying to make up for being upstaged in his own movie by wearing this funky, neon blue-highlighted armor and golden mega-helmet. I’m not sure why he’s wielding Stormbreaker by the very tip but I’m sure he has his reasons. Here, an Engineer from Prometheus gets ready to—no, wait! Why, that’s Gorr, Love and Thunder ’s villain, played by Christian Bale. The character is also known in the comics as the God Butcher, probably because he loves Butchering Gods with his trusty Necrosword. What he doesn’t love is dressing interestingly, apparently. Hail to the King! Valkyrie’s gotten herself some new (but more tastefully restrained) duds, too, and she’s still wielding her preferred weapon, the sword Dragonfang.
