Disney World Unveils Hefty-Priced X-Men Merchandise at EPCOT
Disney World has rolled out a new X-Men experience at EPCOT, giving Marvel fans another reason to visit the resort. The timing of this addition is particularly notable as Marvel Studios prepares to bring the mutant heroes back into the spotlight with an upcoming film featuring Sadie Sink as Jean Grey.
The new collection, called X-Men '97, includes a range of merchandise such as clothing, accessories, and collectibles that lean heavily into the team's familiar colors and retro racing-inspired designs. Guests can choose among items like the X-Men '97 Racing Hat for $36.99, the Dark Blue Racing T-Shirt for $46.99, or the Crossbody Bag for $49.99.
However, prices jump considerably from there, with the X-Men '97 Bomber Jacket selling for $89.99 and the complete collection costing a whopping $270.95 before tax. For guests already paying for park tickets, hotels, meals, transportation, and other souvenirs, these Marvel additions may fall firmly into the splurge category.
