Avengers: Endgame: Marvel Toys May Reveal Thanos’ New Weapon
Potential spoilers for Avengers: Endgame.
Marvel has given us our first look at new statues and action figures of characters in Avengers: Endgame, and the Thanos statue may have revealed a new weapon for the Mad Titan that may be used in the upcoming film.
Marvel and Diamond Select Toys have partnered to bring this Marvel Movie Milestone "Avengers: Endgame" Thanos Resin Statue to life. It sits at 16-inches tall, will cost roughly $500, and only 1,000 are being made.
The statue features Thanos ready for battle in his armor, with an in-tact Infinity Gauntlet and something new - a dual-bladed weapon that very much fits with Thanos' philosophy that everything must be perfectly balanced.

Games for Your Inner Historian
I love history. I have historical books, movies and texts on every shelf at home and a big fat history degree on my wall that’s mostly useful for… well, articles like this.
Being a history nerd also means that when a game takes inspiration from a particular historical epoch, it makes me all the more interested. I know that history isn’t for everyone, and not every game needs a solid historical basis, but I’ve always seen games as a way to explore thoughts and ideas in a way that no other medium can - and not everyone wants to sit through a three-hour lecture on the Russian revolution.
So let’s take a look at a handful of games and game series that have built an incredible experience on top of a solid historical underpinning. To be clear, these aren’t experiences that will give you a totally realistic depiction of a time period, but they do give you some of the flavour of the age; whether that’s culture, politics, warfare or any number of other elements. And yes, because I can’t resist I’ll also point you in the direction of further information to complement - or build upon - what you might get out of each game.
