Most Marvel fans have their eyes onSpider-Man: Homecoming, which is getting ready to swing into theaters very soon. However, there is a lot of excitement forThor: Ragnarok, which could finally be the soloThormovie we have all been waiting for. Having the Hulk along for the ride definitely isn’t going to hurt anything. Now, to help fuel the hype, theThor: Ragnarokteaser trailer has been given the8-bit treatment, and some brand new toys from the movie have been revealed.
Starting with the 8-bit version of theThor: Ragnarokteaser trailer, it’s as awesome as it sounds. The video comes courtesy ofJoBlo Videosand, not only did they convert the entire, epic first trailer forThor 3into an 8-bit version, they also reworked Led Zeppelin’sImmigrant Songinto an 8-bit version as well. And yes, we do get that great Hulk and Thor squaring off with one another moment in all of its 8-bit glory. This will have to do until we get a new, full-lengthThor: Ragnaroktrailer, which is more than likely coming during San Diego Comic-Con.
In otherThorrelated news, Entertainment Weekly has revealed some of the firstThor: Ragnaroktoys from Hasbro that fans are going to be able to purchase, should they feel so inclined. There is a pretty sweetThorfigure, featuring theGod of Thunderbrandishing a couple of swords, as opposed to his classic hammer Mjolnir. The reason for that being Hela (Cate Blanchett) destroys it in the trailer, so Chris Hemsworth is going to have to make do without it. However, there is a pretty sweet looking foam Thor hammer that you can buy as well.
What is interesting is that there is a lot of Hulk merchandise here as well. There is an excellent Hulk figure in his gladiator armor, which further teases some long-awaitedPlanet Hulkaction. There is also a kind of ridiculous, but also kind of fun, Hulk mask that kids can enjoy. Or adults. Whatever floats your boat. If you still have your old Hulk Hands laying around, that could make for a fun pairing. It is interesting there is so much Hulk merch as well. Does this mean we are going to get a lot of him inThor: Ragnarok? We can only hope. Since it doesn’t look like Marvel Studios is going to be making a Hulk solo movie with Mark Ruffalo anytime soon, this will have to do. And by the looks of things, it’ll do just fine.
Thor: Ragnarokdoesn’t arrive until November, so we’ve still got a handful of months to wait until we can feast our eyes on whatdirector Taika Waititiwas able to accomplish. So far, so good, though. you’re able to check out the 8-bitThor: Ragnaroktrailer, as well as some of the newly revealed Hasbro toys for yourself below.
