While browsing stores with the goddess recently, I came across the item featured in photos below. Although I do not want to spread unfounded gossip or create wild rumors, the contents of what I found were intriguing enough to share.
Pictured above, we see a wide view of this Avengers Playset which is on sale in the Disney store under an “Avengers: Age of Ultron” sign. Pretty cool.
And, as we can clearly see, Ultron is the featured villain. Okay, the only villain.
We also see The Vision, which, as far as I know, is the first time this fan favorite has been included in a kid’s playset.
The side illustration features the line up from the first movie….
… although the logo includes the word “Iniative” which might be all the explanation we need (but the timing of this collection’s placement in stores seems timed for the film). So, here’s the intriguing part…
… Captain Marvel is included in the playset.
So my questions are obvious:
Why?
Is this just a coincidence?
Is this an older toy pack with a surprisingly fitting line-up that is just being re-marketed?
Or does this suggest something we didn’t know about the widely anticipated film set to knock us out very soon?
Comments, insights, and explanations are welcome.
