AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR Toy Shows Off Thanos' New Battle Armor And Weapons
Thanos has so far been shown without his patented armour in Avengers: Infinity War but a new action figure seemingly confirms he'll be suiting up and the Mad Titan is going to look seriously formidable.
Last year, the Russo Brothers confirmed that Thanos isn't wearing any armour in what we've seen from Avengers: Infinity War because wielding the Infinity Gauntlet has made him confident enough to not feel like he actually needs it! However, LEGO sets for the movie have shown the Mad Titan decked out in armour and holding what appears to be a massive sword as he does battle with The Avengers.
Now, an action figure has surfaced which shows both Thanos' new battle armour and the weapon the villain will wield when he goes to war with Earth's Mightiest Heroes and the Guardians of the Galaxy.
As you can see, Thanos has seriously upgraded his look and appears way more formidable than both his comic book counterpart and what he looked like in Avengers: Age of Ultron and Guardians of the Galaxy. That sword, meanwhile, is even bigger than we thought (it's double-sided, for starters) and is clearly what Thanos will be using when he attempts to reach the Infinity Gauntlet before the heroes.
