Captain America’s Shield

Best MCU gift for adults

Amazing replica

Have your very own “I can do this all day” moment with this replica of Cap’s shield.

Pros

  • 1:1 scale replica
  • Adjustable straps
  • So cool
Cons

  • Might be too heavy for young kids

Captain America’s’ shield is one of the most iconic weapons, tools, or whatever you want to call it, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Get this 2ft-wide replica of Cap’s’ shield if you want your own. It’s a 1:1 scale replica, meaning it’s the exact same size as the one we see in the movies. It also has adjustable straps to help it fit just about anyone. We just don’t’ recommend throwing it around. It’s big, heavy, and will most definitely break something.

spiderman 2

Marvel’s Spider-Man 2

Best MCU video game

Web-swinging has never been more fun

One of the year’s hottest new games is a sequel to 2018’s Game of the Year.

Pros

  • One of the best games of the year
  • Play as Peter Parker or Miles Morales

One of the best superhero game adaptations ever, 2018’s Marvel Spider-Man, has a new sequel that surpasses the Game of the Year-winning original. Insomniac Games’ Spider-Man 2 is a web-slinging good time that has appearances from a bunch of villains, including Venom this time around. You play both Peter Parker’s and Miles Morales’s versions of Spider-Man. Most importantly, though, it nails the feeling of web-slinging around a huge city with freedom of movement that never gets old.

spidey trace-e

Spidey and His Amazing Friends Trace-E Bot

Best MCU gift for young kids

The Spidey team is on the scene

This sound-activated version of Trace-E, the robot spider from Spidey and His Amazing Friends, will surely be a hit with Spidey’s biggest young fans.

Pros

  • Perfect for ages 3 and up
  • Reacts to any sound
  • Crawls and lights up

If you have a toddler and are an MCU fan, chances are you’ve put on Spidery and his Amazing Friends for your kid. It’s a popular show on Disney+ with a dangerously catchy theme song. You can now get your own version of Spidey’s robot helper, Trace-E. It reacts to any sound by crawling around on the floor and flashing lights. That makes it a great toy for inspiring movement and active play with toddlers and young kids.

iron man helmet

Marvel’s Legends Series Iron Man Helmet

Best MCU gifts for Iron Man fans

Who’s Iron Man now?

Whether your kid’s favorite hero is Spider-Man, or one of the classics like Iron Man or Hulk, a costume is a great gift.

Pros

  • Electronic sound effects
  • Detachable face plate
  • Movie-level detailing

This Iron Man helmet from the Legends Series is a great replica of Tony Stark’s helmet from the films. You can take the faceplate off just like Stark does in the movie. It features electronic sound effects that are powered by three AAA batteries. It’s meant for ages 15 and up.

lego set

Hulkbuster Lego Set

Best MCU Lego gift

The iconic Iron Man armor built to take on the Hulk

The Hulkbuster set from Avengers: Age of Ultron is our favorite MCU Lego set.

Pros

  • One of the most famous Iron Man armors
  • Classic Lego fun

The Hulkbuster is a fan-favorite version of Tony Stark’s’ Iron Man armor. And now, thanks to an official Lego-Marvel collaboration, you can make your own Hulkbuster – using this amazing 1,363-piece Lego set. The final build stands 9 inches tall and 8 inches wide. It also comes with a smaller Iron Man figurine.

funko pop

Avengers: Endgame Iron Man Funko Pop

Best MCU gift for collectors

Collect all their favorite characters

$16 $18 Save $2

Funko Pops are little collectible figurines, and they happen to have a version of every Marvel character.

Funko Pops are huge collectibles figurines that take the form of relevant pop culture figures in movies, games, and TV shows. You can get just about every MCU character as a Funko Pop, and they’re usually under $20.

popsocket

Avenger’s Popsockets

Best MCU phone accessories

Hold the phone!

Once you start using a Popsocket, you’ll never go back, which is similar to what happens when you start watching the MCU.

Pros

  • Choose from all your favorite heroes

PopSockets offers a selection of Avengers-themed device grips (they go on the back of your phone to help you securely hold it). There are plenty to pick from, including selections from the newest movies like Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, The Marvels, and Thor: Love and Thunder.

walkman

Star-Lord’s Walkman

Best MCU gift for audiophiles

Classic listening in an MCU package

Cassettes are back, baby!

Pros

  • Both a tape and MP3 player

tesseract

Marvel’s Legends Series Tesseract

Best MCU gift for a coffee table

Gift a literal Infinity Stone this holiday season

$38 $67 Save $29

Every Marvel fan will recognize this replica of the Tesseract, which drove the plot for much of phase one of the MCU.

Pros

  • 1:1 scale replica
  • Two different light modes

The Tesseract is at least partly responsible for creating Captain America and Iron Man and bringing the Avengers together, but it wouldn’t look amazing on your mantle. Or maybe as a conversation piece on your coffee table. It features two different light modes, highlighting the cube’s different styles in the movies. It also comes with a Loki action figure as a tie-in to the Loki Disney+ series.

walkman

Star-Lord’s Walkman

Best MCU gift for audiophiles

Classic listening in an MCU package

Casettes are back, baby!

Pros

  • Both a tape and MP3 player

The Star Lord’s Walkman is probably the best way to listen to the tunes from the 80s. It might not have the best headphones or the newest tech around, but if Peter Quill is happy taking them around his tech-ridden missions across space, then it’ll be happy in your back pocket, too.

mjolnirtools

Thor Tool Set

Best MCU gift for DIYers

Stop! It’s hammer time

It might not let you wield lightning, but this toolbox is still really fun.

This tool set is shaped after Thor’s’ hammer, Mjolnir. When closed, it is an awesome-looking way to transport everyday tools. When you’re finally ready to get to work and do DIY, it folds out to show a set of 44 tools, including measuring tape, a level, and, of course, a hammer. You’ll just have to wait to see if it’ll fly into your hand at will, though.

spidey costume

Children’s Outfits

Best cheap MCU gifts for kids

Pretend to be your favorite hero

$29 $32 Save $3

Whether your kid’s favorite hero is Spider-Man or one of the classics like Iron Man or Hulk, a costume is a great gift.

Pros

  • Inspire imaginative play
  • Wide range of prices

Whether your children love the Avengers or you do, why not dress them up as your favorite Marvel character? There are loads of cosplay outfits around, including versions of The Hulk, Ironman, Captain America, Spiderman, and Black Panther. They also vary widely in price, with some options under $30. We went with Spider-Man because my 2-year-old is obsessed with Spider-Man. As an added bonus for parents, you’ll probably have to do less laundry if you get a costume because it’s all your child will want to wear.

mjolnir

Thor’s Hammer

Are you worthy?

This fantastic replica is filled with movie-inspired detail, making it an excellent gift for any fan of the Norse god.

Pros

  • 1:1 scale replica
  • Movie inspired lights and sounds

Yes, Thor’s’ hammer was destroyed by his evil sister, Hela, but that doesn’t’ make Mjolnir any less cool. This 1:1 replica of the powerful thunder hammer features a realistic pommel with LED lights that catch everyone’s’ eyes. It also has a voice-activated light feature that reveals the symbol of Odin on the hammer. It works using three AA batteries.

Thor’s hammer… as a bottle opener

Best MCU stocking stuffer for adults

Drink like the gods

This is a bit more relaxed if you still want a bit of Norse god in your life.

Pros

  • Perfect stocking stuffer for college students

Maybe you prefer your Mjolnirs to be a little less huge and heavy. Perhaps you’re in need of a bottle opener. Those two worlds collide with this dinky little solution that’ll have you popping caps like, well, Thor in Endgame.

The bottom line: What’s the best Marvel gift for the holidays?

We’re going with the MCU Phase 1-3 Blu-ray collection as our best Marvel gift this year. How can you be a Marvel super fan if you can’t watch the movies whenever you want? It includes the 23 films that make up the Infinity Saga, starting with 2008’s Iron Man and finishing up with Thanos’ defeat at the hands of the Avengers in Endgame. Each phase of the MCU gets its own special box set in the collection, and it also includes bonus material for each film as well.

If you’re shopping for someone who already owns the movies, your options are unlimited, but we’d recommend something from the Legends series by Marvel. That includes impressive 1:1 scale replicas of classic MCU memorabilia like Captain America’s Shield, Iron Man’s Helmet, and Thor’s hammer.

How did we choose the best Marvel gifts?

I’ve been obsessed with the MCU since I first watched Iron Man in 2008. I also now have a daughter whose favorite Avenger is Spider-Man, and I have a family full of MCU fans that I need to buy presents for this year. So, when making a list of the best Marvel gifts for 2023, I focused on the gifts I’d either like to give or get myself. I had quite a long list of awesome MCU products, to begin with, but I narrowed it down to the very best based on the price and just how cool they are.

What should you think about when looking for the best Marvel gifts?

Probably the biggest factor when shopping for MCU fans is knowing which characters are their favorites. Not that you can really go wrong, but someone who’s a huge Captain America fan might not love opening a bunch of Iron Man stuff on Christmas morning.

What’s the best Marvel gift for kids?

This really depends on the age range you’re shopping for. I got my two-year-old daughter the Spidey and Friends Trace-E robot from the Disney+ show, and I cannot wait to watch her open it on Christmas Day. Obviously, for older kids, you’ll want to go for something more in line with their age. A costume of their favorite MCU character is a great way to inspire imaginative play with kids under 10. Then there’s also a ton of different Marvel Lego kits as well. We liked the Hulkbuster set the most.

If the kid you’re gifting to is a little older and into video games, we’d also highly recommend Spider-Man 2 from Insomniac Games. It’s only available on PS5, though, but it’s a Game of the Year candidate.
