Anticipation of the The Avengers movie is at an all-time high, and SuperHeroStuff is currently offering a line of The Avengers cardboard standups to sate those with a thirst for life-sized cutouts of their favorite do-gooder. All seven of the main characters from the upcoming Joss Whedon film are available for purchase, including Thor, Captain America, Hulk, Black Widow, Iron Man, Hawkeye and Nick Fury. Captain America fans will rejoice when they find out that the patriotic crusader gets two variations while everyone else only gets one.
Each of these The Avengers cardboard standups cost $35, making purchase of the entire collection rather expensive. However, simply buying one without the rest of the crew results in a rather lackluster display, so it’s best you start saving.
