Avengers Endgame toy leak SPOILERS: What does THIS mean for the plot?
AVENGERS ENDGAME has seen another toy leak of Marvel action figures, including dead characters.
Avengers: Endgame trailer drops for saga's EPIC finale
It’s the most secretive film in movie history, but merchandise for Avengers Endgame was always going to tease a few titbits. One Marvel fan has posted pictures from a toy shop of characters from the movie. He’s even tweeted: “The store (where these photos were taken) was asked to put these toys back to storage.” WARNING POTENTIAL SPOILERS FOR AVENGERS ENDGAME AHEAD.
Firstly the dolls in question show surviving superheroes like Hulk, Thor, Black Widow and Rocket in identical white Avengers suits.
While these could just be for team purposes, they’re also rumoured to be Quantum Realm travelling suits.
After all, the Avengers Endgame trailer appeared to tease Ant-Man’s arrival with the Quantum Tunnel van as being the key to defeating Thanos.

Talking of the Mad Titan, his action figure shows his new weapon, plus the fact that he still has the Infinity Gauntlet one.
It was clear from the first Avengers Endgame trailer that Thanos is damaged from the Snap and possibly cannot remove the metal glove.
Meanwhile, there’s a first look at Hawkeye as Ronin with his hood up, plus dolls of characters who died in the Snap from Spider-Man and Black Panther to Star-Lord.
While one of the biggest surprises is a doll of Tessa Thompson’s Valkyrie.
Introduced in Thor Ragnarok, Valkyrie was last seen on the Asgardian refugee ship at the film’s conclusion.
However, she wasn’t aboard at the beginning of Avengers Infinity War when Thanos attacked.
Feared dead in the massacre, or even in the Snap, the film’s directors have confirmed she’s alive.
Joe Russo said: “Several Asgardians have escaped. I have gone on record saying Valkyrie has escaped with some of the Asgardians.”
Avengers Endgame will be released in UK cinemas on April 26, 2019.
