D23: First look at Thanos in ‘Infinity War’ as statue revealed
At D23 Expo Marvel Studios unveiled a life-size statue of Thanos as he’ll appear in Avengers: Infinity War. Fans quickly took to Twitter and social media to share photos.
As io9 noted “…unlike previous glimpses of the Mad Titan that we’ve seen, this Thanos came dressed to kill.”
“When Thanos finally goes to war with the heroes of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, he’ll have shed his gaudy space regalia in favor of a much more casual pair of space trousers and an armored, sleeveless shirt, perfect for showing off his ridiculously muscular space arms.”
Check out the full photo at the bottom.
Thanos has been teased several times over the decade of Marvel films, but in Infinity War, Thanos will take on the entire MCU for the Infinity Stones.

Synopsis:
As the Avengers and their allies have continued to protect the world from threats too large for any one hero to handle, a new danger has emerged from the cosmic shadows: Thanos. A despot of intergalactic infamy, his goal is to collect all six Infinity Stones, artifacts of unimaginable power, and use them to inflict his twisted will on all of reality. Everything the Avengers have fought for has led up to this moment – the fate of Earth and existence itself has never been more uncertain.
