Check out what Upper Deck’s Vice President of Marketing, Jason Masherah, had to say about the upcoming release as well as what fans can expect to see in future.
"We’ve got some awesome sketch cards from top artists that will be included. We have autograph deals with Chris Hemsworth, Kenneth Branagh, Clark Gregg, Tom Hiddleston, Joshua Dallas, and Jaimie Alexander. There will be movie memorabilia cards as well. Where else can you get a card with Natalie Portman’s movie-worn pants on it?"
And here are those very pants that you can own a part of.
Chris Hemsworth will have autograph cards in the set as well as movie-worn memorabilia cards.
Natalie Portman is one of the biggest actresses in the business today, now collectors can own a piece of her movie-worn memorabilia.
When quizzed about the news that the company has other props from the movie that they intent to cut up and distribute with trading cards, he responded that while they're holding off on this for the time being, there's a very good chance that they'll be offering fans a chance to own a piece of them (pictures below) very soon!
"At this point we made the decision NOT to cut these pieces up and use them for trading cards. That is not to say we may not do so in the future. Our business is trading cards and these items would produce some very unique and collectible memorabilia cards most fans would really enjoy. We can appreciate those purists who hate the idea of seeing them cut up, so for now they’ve been granted a stay of execution, so to speak."
"It is important that those who were against us cutting these props up realize this was not the only hammer Thor used in the movie. In fact, it is a stunt hammer. Not everyone can own something like this so it is a unique opportunity to give several people the chance to own a piece of the history like this. We’ve brought a lot of smiles to people’s faces by producing memorabilia cards and that is not going to change."
Thor is set to be released in 3D on May 6, later this year!
