IRON MAN, CAPTAIN AMERICA and THANOS Skottie Young Marvel Baby Statues Are Coming From Gentle Giant in 2016
This is a story that went under-the-radar at San Diego Comic-Con 2015. Perhaps due to all the insanity that occurs at SDCC, but this news is definitely worthy of sharing and, honestly, should have been reported much earlier here on The Daily SuperHero. (My bad.)
At the SDCC Gentle Giant booth there was a new and adorable Captain America statue on display based on Marvel artist Skottie Young's baby super hero art, as seen as variant covers across a vast amount of Marvel comics over the past few years.
The Daily SuperHero even shared an image of the Young-inspired baby Captain America on Twitter, while at Comic-Con.

Well this Cap statue is only the beginning as there are two other Young-inspired Marvel baby statues coming soon from Gentle Giant. Thanos and Iron Man...
Note: The photo taken by The Daily SuperHero was a larger scale statue shown at SDCC but the line coming out is reportedly to be a line of mini-statues that look to be approximately 4-5 inches in height and may come as a 3-pack set. The Daily SuperHero has reached out to Gentle Giant but there has been no confirmation as of the publishing of this post.
No exact information is available as to when these can be pre-ordered, but MarvelToyNews has reported that they will cost somewhere in the range of $45-$65 (assuming for the set of 3) and will be available sometime in 2016.
Hopefully these are just the beginning of a new line of these statues because who doesn't want these cute heroes on display at home or in their office?
