What happens when Falcon, The Thing and US Agent walk onto a spaceship? Well, you get a big leak from the set of Avengers: Doomsday, for one.

Photos showing three members of the upcoming blockbuster’s cast together on set in costume have been posted online, and shared on X/Twitter by MCUnewsrumors. And while the images depict a set mostly surrounded by a bluescreen backdrop, this is still our first look at three major superhero teams interacting.

The images show Danny Ramirez’s Joaquin Torres/Falcon from Sam Wilson’s new Avengers team, Wyatt Russell as John Walker/US Agent from the Thunderbolts/actual “New Avengers”, plus Ebon Moss-Bachrach’s Ben Grimm/The Thing of The Fantastic Four.

Of course, all three of these actors were previously announced by Marvel as being in Avengers: Doomsday, and of course the fan expectation has been that we will see the film’s various heroes in a grand team-up against Doctor Doom (with numerous members of the Fox universe X-Men also included, too).

Still, it is remarkable to see these characters together, especially considering the fact that Thunderbolts/The New Avengers ends with the suggestion of conflict between its new team and the hero squad that Sam Wilson’s Captain America says he’s setting up at the end of Captain America: Brave New World. Seemingly, then, that rivalry gets sorted out quickly.

So too with The Fantastic Four, who are expected to be consigned to their own, separate reality for much of their upcoming debut film The Fantastic Four: First Steps. Though, as fans will know, Thunderbolts/The New Avengers already teased the quartet’s arrival in the main MCU universe via a post-credits scene.

Ultimately, then, while these characters may not be Marvel’s biggest stars, fans are excited to see representatives for three of the film’s big teams interact, on a set that looks like the bridge of a spaceship.

Is this the Fantastic Four’s spacecraft, with the Avengers and New Avengers onboard for a pow-wow? There’s a retro feel to some of the consoles and screens we can see. Falcon looks to be fully recovered from his injuries at the end of Brave New World. US Agent now sports a black beret. And The Thing… well, Moss-Bachrach is in a mocap suit, and there’s not much more to say about that.

Of course, fans have plenty of theories to this scene’s context. Based on previous rumors of the Avengers Doomsday plot, many believe we’re seeing a trio of characters left behind to defend Earth while some of the MCU’s bigger stars pop over to the X-Men’s dimension, ready for the big battle at the X-Mansion seen in the film’s earlier leaks.

Avengers: Doomsday is currently being filmed in the UK, ahead of its eventual launch in on December 18, 2026. Other production images that have leaked out have suggested we’ll see more of a key location from Thunderbolts/New Avengers, while a separate set is surprisingly named after a member of The Defenders.

The four-day marathon that is this year’s Prime Day is live now, running from July 8-11. There’s hardly any product category that’s not on sale at Amazon at the moment. But each year Prime Day is one of the best times to stock up on board games, and this year is no different.

It seems like most board games are on sale right now for Prime Day 2025, and the prices are mostly excellent. Below, we’ve highlighted our picks for the best board game deals available now – but you’ll need a Prime membership to get most of them. You can sign up here.

Save Up to 50% Off Board Games for Prime Day

As an added bonus, a bunch of the games are part of another sale that’s also going on right now that saves you $10 when you spend $40 on select items. So if your game(s) are eligible and you spend more than $40, you’ll get an additional $10 off. As a deal-focused commerce editor, I love it when you can stack a deal on top of a deal. It feels like you’re working the system.

I have fairly recently started collecting both puzzles and playing cards as an adult, and one brand I’ve been frequently coming across is theory11. I was first drawn in by their Lord of the Rings puzzle thanks to its really cool design and only later found out they also make some awesome playing cards. As a brand, theory11 focuses on creating unique art based on popular franchises. Everything they creat has a faithful design that feels both ornate and substantial.

Since I usually only like to buy things when they are on sale, I had yet to actually purchase any theory11 puzzles or playing cards for myself. Now that these collector’s items are on sale for the first time for Prime Day, I finally decided to pull the trigger on the puzzle that first caught my eye. Below I’ve laid out everthing this sale currently has to offer.

theory11 Jigsaw Puzzle Deals

This brand has some of the coolest puzzles for adults you can find on Amazon right now. Although it isn’t as well known as some of the more recognizable puzzle brands, like Ravensburger, each puzzle appears to offer a high level of quality. The image is one that is meant to be displayed once you’re done, rather than put back into the box. These 1000-piece puzzles are essentially a really cool poster that you’ll definitely want to frame immediately after placing that final piece.

The only options currently featured in the sale are from four fairly popular fandoms. The Lord of the Rings puzzle and Harry Potter puzzle options are my top picks here thanks to how book-like they feel.

theory11 Playing Card Deals

I’ve collected a few different sets of playing cards I’ve found at a few different shops and have found that the outside image is usually a lot cooler than the individual cards themselves. These theory11 playing cards do not have that problem at all. The outer sleeve of each of these decks all feature a design unique to the franchise its representing, and the cards within all match that design perfectly. The characters and little easter eggs from these popular stories are sprinkled throughout the cards.

Board Games Are on Sale for Prime Day Too

Although it isn’t exactly the same thing as puzzles and playing cards, it’s worth noting that Amazon is also having a pretty big board game sale for Prime Day 2025. If you have a love of puzzles and card games that transfers over to other tabletop ventures, I recommend you check out these deals as well.

Amazon Prime Day 2025 deals are here, bringing us four whole days of discounts versus two days last year. As you know, Prime Day offers significant price cuts across many categories and top brands, from AirPods to Adidas. If you are a deal hunter or just casually shopping around for stuff you may need, there are some things you should consider. Our IGN commerce team knows a thing or two about deals, so we answered the most popular Prime Day shopping questions below.

1. What Time Does Prime Day End?

Prime Day 2025 officially ends on Friday, July 11th at 11:59pm.

2. Do Prime Day deals change throughout the day?

Yes, they can. Not only do some items go out of stock completely on the same day, but deals can end seemingly without warning. (I know, it’s a shame.) That said, don’t hesitate to get an item you want, especially if it’s a big-ticket item or a Lightning deal, which comes and goes fast, as the name suggests. Many deals have a % bar that fills eventually based on limited stock available, so pay attention to these labels throughout the day. Buy sooner rather than later in the event if you can swing it!

3. Can You Return Prime Day Deals’ Products?

If you end up wanting to return something you bought during Prime Day, you most likely can return it with no issue. In the rare case you ordered something during Prime Day (day one) that actually dropped in price day-to-day (on Prime Day day two, three or four), you can usually return it and buy it again the following day. According to Amazon, all return-eligible items, weighing under 50 lbs and sold by Amazon, have at least one free return option.

4. Do You Need to Be a Prime Member to Shop Amazon Prime Day Deals?

Yes, you need a (paid) Amazon Prime Membership to take full advantage of Prime Day. If you’re new, you can try it out with a 30-day free trial. If you don’t want to commit to an annual membership, Amazon offers a one-month plan for $14.99. If needed, it’s easy to cancel your membership at any time, if desired.

5. Is There Another Amazon Prime Day in 2025?

Technically, yes! Amazon will likely continue its tradition of hosting a “second” Prime Day in the fall, which usually takes place sometime in the middle of October. However, it’s not typically as big as July’s Prime Day event. Other retailers will also offer fall sales before Black Friday season starts in November. See all the upcoming 2025 sales events happening after Prime Day, including the next-in-line sales season, Labor Day (estimated to begin at the end of August through Labor Day on Sept. 1).

More Prime Day FAQs

What should I shop for before Prime Day ends?

These are our handpicked best Prime Day deals you can still shop now:

• PlayStation Portal (Used: Like New) $124.12
• PS5 DualSense Edge Controller (Used: Like New) for $142.61
• Apple AirPods Pro for $149
• Apple AirPods 4 with Noise Canceling for $119
• Apple iPad (Newest) for $279.99
• Apple AirPods 4 without Noise Canceling for $89
• Samsung 990 Evo Plus 2TB SSD for $113.99
• Meta Quest 3S 128GB VR Headset for $249.99
• Meta Quest 3S 256GB with Batman Game for $329.99
• Apple Watch Series 10 for $279.99

Are Prime Day deals the same throughout the four days?

Not necessarily, but they can be. Some deals will carry over across all days, but some will expire or sell out before then. Similar to the above question, each sales day can bring changes, so you don’t want to wait too long to grab a deal on something you know you want to order. Day one and two may have more Apple sales, and day three and four may have more kitchen appliance sales, for example. We don’t usually see the same item go down in price day-to-day, so we wouldn’t advise waiting around for further discounts to come tomorrow—that’s pretty risky.

With the above knowledge that deals may expire or popular products may run out of stock at any given moment, it’s best to get the product you want before the last day. To feel even more confident when deciding when to buy something at this given moment, see our expert guide for shopping Prime Day tips.

Remember, Prime Day officially ends at 11:59pm PT on Friday, July 11th. You can still become a Prime Member if you want to capture some of the best deals of the year.

Amazon’s massive Prime Day sale is underway, bringing deep discounts to some of the most popular products. If you’re an avid mobile gamer and still don’t have a dedicated phone controller, then you’ll want to check this deal out. The Backbone One USB-C mobile controller is on sale for $30 off its regular price, and matches its lowest price ever. The standard black color has already sold out, but the white PlayStation Edition is still available. But, at this price it likely won’t last for the duration of Prime Day, so make sure to grab this deal before it’s too late.

We’ve seen the official Nintendo Switch 2 case and it could be better for the price. It fits the console well enough, but the build quality and protection is lacking and it looks boring for a $40 case. If you want something that protects your Switch 2 while looking a lot nicer and still maintaining a slim profile, I’d suggest getting the Tomtoc Slim Nintendo Switch 2 Case. For Amazon Prime Day, the price has dropped 20% from $36.99 down to $29.59, but only for the black and gray colorways. This is the first time I’ve seen this case on sale, and I’d suggest any Switch 2 owner in need of a case jump on this now. It’s easily one of the best Switch 2 cases currently available and many of us use this case ourselves.

I’d argue one of the biggest comic storylines of the past half-decade came not from people in spandex and capes, but instead from half-shell heroes in the IDW mini-series Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin. Now, the sequel series picks up 15 years after the conclusion of the original storyline with a new team of turtles released as an all-in-one collection – Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin II: Re-Evolution. To celebrate this release, Amazon has it on sale for $24.49. As an added bonus, even with it being Prime Day, you don’t need a Prime membership to take advantage of this deal.

Other Prime Day Deals

Did we mention it’s Prime Day? Amazon is running its big annual sale through the rest of the week, with deals on pretty much anything you can think of. Highlights so far include Audible Premium for $0.99, discounts on the latest Kindle and a “Buy 2 Get 1 Free” deal on books and Blu-rays.

Prime Day’s movie selection is top-tier. You can browse dozens of great 4K Blu-rays, box sets, collections, and everything in between from now until July 11. Many of them are included in the buy 2, get 1 free promotion on physical media, like the standalone Lord of the Rings and Hobbit trilogies. But if you’re looking to one-stop shop on all of these films, the Middle-Earth 6-Film Collection is significantly discounted for Prime Day; pick it up for $89.49, a nice $120.50 off the retail price of $209.99. This is the best deal we’ve ever seen on this collection since it was first released.

Save Big on the Middle-Earth 6-Film Collection

Prime Day is one of the best times to save on just about anything, but one thing I know I spend way too much on is streaming subscriptions. I typically expect the best streaming deals to drop around Cyber Monday, but Amazon has managed to pull through with solid discounts on a spread of Prime Video’s Channel Add-Ons. These discounts are available exclusively for Prime members and are only live until July 11.

Tons of Streaming Add-Ons Are Discounted for Prime Members

These Add-Ons feature the full library of what you’d get on the streaming service’s own site or app but accessed through Prime Video. If you’re like me, it’s actually nice to have all your subscriptions in one spot. You get to see everything you’re paying to watch without bouncing around websites.

Most of these Prime Day deals offer pretty much the same thing: your selected streaming subscription for $0.99/month for two months. The one exception is Apple TV+, which is 50% off, down to $4.99 from $9.99, but with the same two-month limit. All of the deals are live until July 11, the final day of Amazon’s sale event.

I’m personally going to pick up Crunchyroll to catch the summer anime season, specifically Dan Da Dan Season 2 and Gachiakuta. I’d also highly recommend checking out Britbox. It’s where you’ll find classic British comedy shows like Would I Lie to You as well as The IT Crowd since it was removed from Netflix.

Anyone Can Get Two Months of Paramount+ Premium for $0.99/Month

Grab your cards, Samurai. CMON’s Cyberpunk 2077: Gangs of Night City is getting in on the Prime Day savings with a nice 36% discount, making it only $69.99. Instead of trying to cram the massive video game’s story into a box, Gangs of Night City instead puts you in control of one of the universe’s various gangs (each gang having unique asymmetric abilities), and you wage war as you and the other players try to carve out more territory.
