OK, I’m not going to submit to the normal level of nerd rage here, because as an adult, I completely understand - Marvel is a gigantic, publicly owned company, and they’re more about the dollar than the quality when it comes to licensing their properties.

But I cannot see the appeal for the audience here, with this new line of Marvel approved High Definition Television sets.

Created by RTC23 (have you heard of them? I sure as hell haven’t), these sets come between the sizes of 22 and 55 inches in both LCD and LED flavors, and not just feature comic designs on the outside case, but also a custom character related image appearing on screen for 8 seconds when you turn the television on.

So let me get this straight  - it’s an HDTV of a lesser quality, with ugly case designs, a shitty image whenever you turn the TV on, and you’re paying a premium over a quality Samsung or Vizio HDTV? And they’re online sales ONLY?

Who the fuck is the market for this, REALLY?
