Avengers: Age of Ultron – Super Superhero Fun!

1 Comment

avengers-age-of-ultron-No Strings

Three years ago, Joss Whedon’s Marvel’s The Avengers blew everyone away by taking a group off characters who should never have been in the same room together and making us believe that they could save the world together. It was fresh and new and shiny.

Avengers Duck Tape® – A Brand Too Far?

Avengers Duck Tape

With the Marvel and Star Wars brands so prominent, everyone and his dog’s products wants to get in on the merchandising bonanza that is always sure to follow.

Duct tape has been known to help fix/repair stuff – but while the Avengers were fixing things like portals from another dimension and the rebels were attempting to fix a corrupt system of government in a galaxy far, far away, I’m not sure how that relates to fixing/repairing anything with duct tape – let alone The Avengers Duck Tape® (above), or Star Warsâ„¢ Duck Tape® (pictured after the jump)! And yet, both exist.

Maybe, just maybe, that’s a brand too far.
