Avengers: Infinity War Toy Confirms Major Thor Spoilers

In the lead-up to Avengers: Infinity War - which is now quickly approaching its April 27th release date - there's been much discussion surrounding Chris Hemsworth's Thor, and understandably so. Given the events of Ragnarok, the God of Thunder has been left without an eye, his cape and, perhaps most important of all, his trusty hammer, Mjolnir.

In the lead-up to Avengers: Infinity War – which is now quickly approaching its April 27th release date – there’s been much discussion surrounding Chris Hemsworth’s Thor, and understandably so. Given the events of Ragnarok, the God of Thunder has been left without an eye, his cape and, perhaps most important of all, his trusty hammer, Mjolnir.

You can thank Hela Goddess of Death for most of that, but make no mistake about it, the fan favorite Avenger will be back and better than ever in the upcoming event movie. It’s long been speculated that by Infinity War‘s end, he’ll be fully restored to his previous self, complete with that missing eye, his trusty cape and, of course, a kickass new weapon. And while the recent trailer – which damn near broke the internet earlier today – confirmed that yes, Thor will replace Mjolnir and be sporting a cape in the pic, a new toy seems to confirm the last part of the equation.

As you can see in the gallery down below, one of the figures shows the God of Thunder still with his eyepatch, but it seems that once he’s got his cape and Stormbreaker (his new hammer/axe hybrid) in hand, he’ll have his eye back as well. Check it out and see for yourself:

This all makes perfect sense, as fans have long theorized that everything comes back to him at the same time, presumably once he acquires the weapon. And this new figure seems to confirm that, even showing us that though Thor will have his full sight restored, he’ll still have a scar there, reminding him of what Hela did.

Going one step further, and this all plays into what we’ve been hearing about the arc of Hemsworth’s hero in the film, which is that it’s an important one that’ll position the God of Thunder as a pivotal character going into Avengers 4. How exactly he’ll end up crossing paths with Earth’s Mightiest Heroes remains to be seen, as they’re occupied in either Wakanda, New York or on Thanos’ homeworld, Titan, while Thor’s off on a cosmic journey with Rocket and Groot, but all will be revealed once Avengers: Infinity War arrives on April 27th.
