The Marvel Store

I and my son are so pleased with the Spider-Man Sneakers for Boys that I purchased from the Marvel Store! These sneakers actually got my boy a lot of positive attention at the Spider-Man themed party he attended at a neighbor’s birthday party.

When we got the invitation, I knew that other moms on the street would want to ensure that their sons outshone the celebrant – it’s something that moms do on my street (yes, it’s weird I know). I wanted my son to look really cool and feel very comfortable in his outfit. I actually knew what some mothers wear dressing their sons in for the anticipated party – one mom went all out! She hoe sewed her son a Spider-Man costume (spandex and all); if that is not a desperate act to get her son noticed, I do not know what is!

I wanted my son to put on a Spider-Man outfit that he could wear again and not just for Halloween or Spider-Man themed birthday parties! I browsed through the Marvel Store website and came across very beautiful and adorable Spider-Man Tee Shirt and shorts and the Spider-Man Sneakers for Boys was the icing on the cake!

The Spider-Man Sneakers for Boys is light on my son’s feet. I loved the graphics on the sneakers (Spider-Man seemed to be crawling out of these fab sneakers!) When my boy arrived at the party, he looked absolutely cute and laid back (not trying desperately to outshine the celebrant). Other kids kept saying “Check out Brian’s awesome sneakers!” Some moms wanted to know where I got such a fab outfit for my son, while others were so jealous they kept mute the entire time – the poor kid with the Spider-Man spandex (badly sewn by his mom) wasn’t having an easy time with the other kids (snickering).

Pros:
The Spider-Man Sneakers for Boys is light on the feet, comes with beautiful graphic Spider-Man design. The Spider Man’s eyes light up! The sneakers feature a 3 dimensional design at the toes.

Cons:
The Spider-Man Sneakers for Boys is absolutely beautiful to look at; it is light on the feet and colorful! I have nothing negative to say about these sneakers. I am satisfied with my purchase.

Final Notes:
The Spider-Man Sneakers for Boys is comfortable, colorful and looks absolutely beautiful on the feet. My boy loves wearing them and any little boy would love them as well.

The Avengers Rolling Luggage from Marvel:

The item is the Avengers Rolling Luggage that I bought recently from the Marvel Store website. I had always wanted to buy Avengers merchandise, as I have remained a fan of this comic book series ever since I first read it as a child. I loved all the characters involved in the Avengers comic books and after seeing the film, I became even more determined to buy an item of daily use having these characters printed on them. Thus, when I required a luggage bag for a small trip, I instantly logged on to the Marvel Store website and picked out the Avengers Rolling Luggage.

This luggage bag was an ideal way for me to collect some merchandise of my favorite comic series. Since the luggage bag looked good and its price was not very high, I decided to buy it for my short trip. The process for placing the order for this item did not take me long and I was over and done with it in less than 5 minutes. Having placed the order, I started waiting eagerly for the item to be shipped to me.

It took the website two whole days to ship the product to me, but the item was worth the wait. The luggage bag was beautiful to look at and had my favorite characters from the Avengers comic series namely Thor, the Hulk, Ironman, Hawk Eye, Captain America and Nick Fury printed on it. The bag itself was very sturdy and provided me enough space to store all my necessary belongings and travel documents. The padded lining of the bag was very assuring about the bag’s durability while its double zip closure provided easy closing of the main compartment of the bag.

The luggage bag had two rear wheels and a retractable handle too which helped me in rolling the bag on the floor. This feature of this bag saved me from the trouble of carrying it around in my hands which was a very nice aspect of this luggage bag. Moreover, there was an exterior zipped compartment present on the front side of the bag too which provided me the chance to store away my items of immediate need like my cell phone and iPad.

I bought this product from the Marvel Store website which is an excellent place for buying the Avengers merchandise and other characters of the Marvel Universe. The website itself has been designed very smartly with the menus occupying the top portion of the website and a search option located above them to help the customers in finding the items they are looking for.

The website has installed fool proof security measures to ensure that no one is able to pry out the credit card information that has been entered in by the customers on the website for purchasing their favorite items. I felt extremely safe when buying from this website and was assured of my private information’s safety.

When I took the bag out and rolled it on my way to the plane, every passenger looked at it with appreciative eyes and some even nodded to me too acknowledging that they too were a fan of these characters.

Pros: The Avengers Rolling Luggage is a beautifully made storage backpack that can safely keep all your travel documents and necessary item of use whenever you are going on a short trip. It has the famous Avengers, the Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, printed on them which gives it a cute look. Moreover, it is made from the best available material and provides all the facilities and features that any good quality luggage bag provides. It has an extra zipped compartment on the exterior portion and two wheels on the rear side, so that you can roll it with ease using the retractable handle fitted at its top.

Cons: This product had no apparent defects or deformities in it and I was not able to find any issues while using it as well. This luggage bag is really cool and has all my favorite Marvel characters displayed on it. So, I am very happy with this product and have never regretted buying it for even a second.

Amount Paid: $29.95

Final Notes: The Avengers Rolling Luggage is a cute rolling bag that has the Avengers logo printed on it. It is a very beautiful and durable luggage carrier that has been made from the best quality materials and can help you in storing away your necessities whenever you are travelling.

Review Title: Five collectables from Marvel.com

Title: Five collectables

Review Body: These are the five collectables that the Marvel.com store currently has new to offer and I have ordered all of them. Why? The reason is that they are legendry Marvel characters and these are all unique Sideshow Collectibles. The entire Sideshow Collectibles will be worth far more than their current value and I have all of them. This is a collection and twenty years from now I can give my son this Marvel collection and it will be worth even more. Besides he is crazy about the Marvel comics’ characters and I can’t wait to see his face when this order comes in.

Sideshow Collectibles has added to the Marvel “Premium Format Figure line-up” Colossus. He stands 24 inches tall and features a costume out of real fabric. This Colossus figure is a great addition to any Marvel collection. Every Colossus is finished and then hand painted individually with its very own unique detail and quality that has come to be a mark of a handmade Sideshow Collectibles product. This figure is about 1:4 in scale and is made of polystone.

Next is a bust by Sideshow Collectibles of the Grmeen Goblin who is maniacal Norman Osborn and Spider-Man’s arch rival. This life-size bust captures him in all his gory details. Each piece is hand-painted and finished and then is topped with a posable and removable hat made of real fabric. This collectable is 1:1 scale; done by artists Andy Bergholtz, Jordu Shell, and Gidget Earle; made of fiberglass; and is a limited edition as only 300 were made.

Third is the legendary bust of the Gambit figure by Sideshow Collectibles. Gambit is the member of X-Men who is a master thief and always is throwing cards. He is now available in this legendary scale Bust with each bust individually finished and painted with its own exclusive detail and quality. Gambit is made of polystone and is a limited edition of 1000.

Then there is the life size prop replica of Iron Monger Helmet that is 14 inches high. Obadiah Stane purchased Stark International and built the armor for Iron Monger from Tony Stark’s notes on the original armor of the Iron Man. This is a 1:1 Iron Monger Helmet and there are only 250. This collectible was created by Slideshow with the armor of Iron Monger being made by Stane International.

It’s code-named “I-M Mark One”, and is a battle-suit of armor made of “omnium steel”, which contains various weaponry for offense and strength that is amplified. Because this armor was based on Tony Stark’s inventive plans, which then were stolen by Stane, this is a version that is modified of Stark Industries original Iron Man plan. This armor has been made bigger than the armor of Iron Man to take into account strength proportionally.

This helmet replica has steel that is hand forged with full internal padding as well as tinted plastic eye lens. Each helmet also includes a display base together with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity and is another limited Edition of 250.

Mystique is a late addition to the “Marvel Legendary Scale Bust” series and is captured in detail and is stunning. Every bust is individually finished by painting to the exact Sideshow Collectibles’ standards. This bust was created by Viggiano Studio, the artist is Mireya Romo-Bowen, and Sideshow Collectibles development and design team; made of polystone; and is a limited edition of 500.

Pros: These Marvel Collectibles are very well made and are prized in the X-Men’s industry of collectibles. There is actually some very good craftsmanship done on these models. They are all limited editions. The value of a complete set of Marvel Collectibles can only go up.

Cons: None

Website Experience: Their website i-e marvelstore.com is easy to navigate and the pages are not cluttered up as there is plenty of white space on the pages for different items. This is a very user-friendly website – and easy to pay for your purchase and be on your way. Navigator bars on the top are great to help with flow of the website. The checkout page is secure, so any information like credit card number is secure when purchase is made.

Amount Paid: $1850.00

Purchase Date: February 1, 2013

Online or In-Store: Online

Final Notes: Marvel Comic books have been around for quite some time. I am betting that this will continue and with the movie industry, TV shows and wearing apparel now involved in the Marvel Comics industry, these collectibles should continue to rise in profit and left my son a good chunk of change when he is my age. Good art no matter what the subject is of – is good art – and good art collections only go up in value.

As Peter P. referenced this store can be a bit on the pricey side, but as a collector I must tell you that you are getting some great items for what you pay for. I like the action figures the best and they always have what I am looking for in stock. Much better than fighting other collectors at local stores, and now I always go right to the source.

Every child enjoys the Avengers, and now they can have these super heroes in their very own home with The Avengers Figurine Play Set. This play set can be found at The Marvel Store online, and has all of the Avengers included in the set. Some of them include Iron Man, Thor, Captain America, and many more.

Don't be just an average comic book collector, add something new this year with an item from the Tokidoki collection from the Marvel Store.

I think the Marvel online store is really fun. I'm not much interested in superheros and comic books normally, but once I spent some time on this website looking for a birthday gift for my boyfriend, I started really enjoying this world of superhero ephemera. I think the prices are good, and the selection is excellent.

Can be a little pricey sometimes but a great store overall. A good dose of nostalgia, if nothing else. 

If children want to stand out from their classmates, they should look into the Spider-Man Backpack that can be found at the Marvel Store. This backpack features a sharp looking image of spider-man with webs around the back, which is great for those who love this web-swinging super hero. With this backpack, children will have ample space to place their books and homework for when they come home from school. This backpack features easily adjustable straps, making it easy for children to carry while they are gearing up for the upcoming year. If children want to tap into their inner spider-man, this backpack is ideal and is great for both boys and girls.
