I mean, he doesn't even appear in any comics (and even Vision-boy isn't a regular at the moment anywhere, and hasn't been for years as I understand it) and yet all of this merchandise has come out in the last year after *years* when I was still reading comics of zero Vision related stuff.

I guess Marvel has really decided to license the hell out of the Avengers in the lead up to the movie. It's the only property they really control themselves any more.



... or whatever.

Some fun stuff there - makes a good XMas list for your family of things to get you - you should send em the links! \:\)

I saw the bobble-head when I was in the States (before I dropped in to say "hi" to you - thanks for that by the way - was a real fun day).

I'm still searching for a decent Black Knight merchandise. :/
