In 2003, after the Daredevil movie came out, and Spider-Man had been such a big hit, Marvel put out a trivia game.
It had such riveting questions as “Who was Daredevil’s first love?” “What did Daredevil’s father do for a living?” and my favorite, because they used movieverse revisionist history: “How old was Daredevil when he got his powers?’ This card says “Thirteen”. Comic canon says fifteen. Pretty lame game, overall. I picked it up at a flea market.
I’m not exactly sure when these ties were made, since I bought this one on ebay a couple of years back. Nice tie, all silk, by Esquire Neckwear. I had to look it up online to find out how to tie the knot, and it’s a bit lacking, but you get the idea. Art is the cover of Issue #304.
From 2009, a Marvel Heroes sticker featuring DD and Elektra, although calling Elektra a hero can be debatable.
My least favorite of the lunchbox watches, because it was digital, and I hate digital watches. This is the least pleasing graphic, too, with DD literally straddling the time. Bad design, marketing department.
The red analog watch has the same graphic as the lunchbox package. I had two of these, and wore the other one until the band broke.
Around the time of the movie in 2003, Marvel licensed a series of Daredevil watches that came packaged in a tin that looks like a smallish lunchbox.
Same image as was used on my DD coffee mug shown previously.
I got this ballcap recently, but the tag inside it reads copyright 1993, so I have to think it was old stock somewhere. It’s sort of a dove grey with a navy blue bill that seems a little faded, but the tags are still in it, and evidently was never worn. Until now.
“Oh, NOOOO, honey! I would NOT look good in black!”
I do wish this Famous Cover Daredevil figure was an April Fool joke, but alas, it is not so. This abomination was offered in a snazzy little box, and originally sported gloves that more resemble oven mitts. Being the nerd I am, I had to find out WHY they would put goofy gloves like that on the figure. Well…it’s because the hands are so off scale with the rest of the figure, and don’t even match each other in scale. Plus, don’t you love how they messed up the simple double D logo? Add into the mix, the Dudley Dooright chin, and this figure gets a resounding F for FUBAR.
The digital time shows underneath this Daredevil swinging from a gargoyle. I don’t keep a battery in this, because the size of the time is so small I can’t read it from very far. Fun item, just not very useful. When did that ever stop collectors?
