Marvel plans a huge Black Panther merchandise push ahead of T'Challa's big screen debut, and the new comic series from Ta-Nehisi Coates. Check out some of the great items that'll be hitting stores very soon...
While the MCU debut of Spider-Man is undoubtedly a massive deal, we have seen the iconic Marvel hero zip around on the big screen on several occasions; whereas Captain America: Civil War marks the live-action introduction of T'Challa/Black Panther, and many fans are understandably just as excited about that.
In anticipation of this, Marvel is planning a major marketing and merchandise push for the character, and has sent us over images of some of the cool items that'll be available to purchase soon.
Some we've seen before (the Funko POP! etc), but most of it is new stuff - including that action figure 2-pack with Hawkeye and Black Panther, who is sporting some very strange arm accessories. The accompanying press release is also below.
Marvel is rolling out a heroic new merchandising program inspired by Black Panther just in time for his first appearance in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, an all-new comic book written by esteemed author Ta-Nehisi Coates, and his 50th anniversary. The campaign will touch on all major categories including publishing, apparel, toys, collectibles, home goods, and more, offering both longtime T’Challa readers and new fans introduced to the character through Marvel’s Captain America: Civil War exciting ways to embrace this legendary Marvel Super Hero.
