Attention, Marvel enthusiasts! Join forces with the Avengers as the Mightiest Heroes descend upon Jewel Changi Airport at the Avengers: Beyond Earths’ Mightiest at Jewel Marvel-themed event from now till 13 August.
You don’t want to miss this event fellow adventurers, because Marvel’s coolest superheroes have taken over the Shiseido Forest Valley and Canopy Park. Here are five things you can look forward to.
1. Unleash your inner superhero at Avengers Assemble @ Shiseido Forest Valley
Kick off your action-packed journey at the Shiseido Forest Valley. Here, you’ll find seven Marvel-themed photo spots that will transport you into the world of the Avengers. At the North entrance, be greeted by none other than Iron Man himself, standing at a staggering height of 5 metres.
Next, marvel at the ginormous 3D displays featuring Captain America’s virtually indestructible Vibranium Shield and Thor’s mighty Mjolnir, reaching heights of 3 metres and 3.5 metres, respectively.
But the adventure doesn’t end there. Test your strength against The Incredible Hulk – the Hulk-Out-Meter allows both adult and kid superhero-wannabes to measure their strength. It’s your chance to battle against the indomitable Hulk!
Fans can also engage in mystical battles alongside Doctor Strange, claim the throne as the Black Panther, and experience the incredible shrinking powers of Ant-Man and the Wasp.
2. Witness the evolution of Marvel Avengers at Avengers Forever @ Canopy Park
Next, go on a nostalgic journey through 60 years of Marvel Avengers history and learn amazing Avenger fun facts. From their humble beginnings in comic books to their triumphant rise in television, toys and blockbuster movies, this exhibit pays tribute to the enduring legacy of The Avengers.
Trace The Avengers‘ extraordinary timeline from their inception in 1941 with the iconic Captain America to their official formation in 1963. See rare items on display such as the first-ever Avenger action figures from 1972, and watch a snippet of The Avengers’ first animated series The Marvel Super Heroes.
Did you know that Singapore was once featured in a Marvel comic? While Singapore has been mentioned in Marvel Comic stories in the 1940s, the X-Men Vs Avenger #3 comic in June 1987 was the first time that Singapore was featured. See if you can locate this comic among the exhibits!
In the enchanting Petal Garden, life-sized statues of beloved characters from the Marvel Cinematic Universe await, from Ant-Man, the Wasp and Black Panther to Captain America and Iron Man.
