The Marvel Cinematic Universe is going through a weird period of rebirth into a potentially horrible bog of obligatory Disney+ content to understand what’s going on, but Avengers: Endgame was still cool, right? That thing at the end, with the- okay, you know what? You saw the picture. You can infer the spoilers. So here’s your single warning before we go into what happened at the end of the movie.
Ready? Good.
Tony Stark saved the universe by recovering the Infinity Stones from Thanos and putting them in his special Iron Man gauntlet designed for the Hulk to use, and sacrificed himself by using the stones to destroy Thanos’ army. And you can honor that sacrifice with a big dumb plastic gauntlet! This is the Marvel Legends Avengers: Endgame Power Gauntlet.
Does it look familiar? It’s the chiral reflection (Death Stranding is still trending, right?) of the Marvel Legends Infinity Gauntlet, which we saw before. It’s just a right-handed robot mitt instead of a left-handed kind of magic mitt. And it’s the same $99.99, so it’s clearly targeted more towards hardcore nerds like me who want props than kids who want toys.
This is a giant gauntlet that my own sizeable forearms can barely fit in. And it’s rad. Like the Infinity Gauntlet, rings on the inside attach to the individual fingers, letting you control the hand as if it were your own. Just with much less dexterity, and a nearly useless opposable thumb. And you can even lock any of the fingers in place using a switch on the back.
This is stupid fun, so it’s right up my wheelhouse. Flex the hand and the stones light up and it makes a bunch of noise. If you want a companion for your Infinity Gauntlet, or if you were holding off on getting the Infinity Gauntlet because you’re right-handed, check out the Power Gauntlet.
