MARVEL'S THE AVENGERS Briefcase Set To Be Released Spring 2013
Following the legal problems surrounding the release of Marvel's The Avengers in a replica of the briefcase used by Nick Fury in the superhero ensemble, it is now being reported that the set has been pushed back to an unspecified Spring 2013 date. Read on for details!
Entertainment Weekly reports that the "Phase One" briefcase set featuring Marvel's The Avengers, Captain America: The First Avenger, Iron Man, Iron Man 2, The Incredible Hulk and Thor on Blu-ray will now be released on "an unspecified date next spring, according to sources at parent company Disney." Originally set to be released on September 25th, a German luggage firm have filed a lawsuit because of the similarities between the replica briefcase being used for this set and one of their products. The set, which includes a glowing replica of the Tesseract, is now being redesigned. What will happen to the discarded plastic briefcases and what this new version will look like is unknown.
Marvel Studios presents in association with Paramount Pictures Marvel’s The Avengers--the super hero team up of a lifetime, featuring iconic Marvel super heroes Iron Man, the Incredible Hulk, Thor, Captain America, Hawkeye and Black Widow. When an unexpected enemy emerges that threatens global safety and security, Nick Fury, Director of the international peacekeeping agency known as S.H.I.E.L.D., finds himself in need of a team to pull the world back from the brink of disaster. Spanning the globe, a daring recruitment effort begins.
