The mighty God of Thunder made his first comic book appearance in Journey into Mystery in 1962. However, the character gained mainstream popularity when Chris Hemsworth started portraying Thor in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Hemsworth made his debut as Thor in 2011's Thor and has been playing the God of Thunder for eight years now.

If you too are a fan of Thor, or you have a friend who is, we've got the ten best gift ideas for fans of this probably, maybe, arguably strongest Avenger.

Thor’s new look in Avengers: Endgame was something no one could have predicted. While opinions on Thor’s character development are divided, Thor’s Lebowski look will definitely go down as one of the most memorable bits from Avengers: Endgame. If you’re one of those fans who thought Thor’s new look was fun, you’re in luck because Funko made this cool Pop! figure that will make a fine addition to your MCU shelf.
From a "muscular man" in Avengers: Infinity War to "the Dude" in Avengers: Endgame, Thor sure has changed in ways we didn't imagine possible.
7 MARVEL THOR HAMMER PEWTER KEY RING
Thor’s hammer, the infamous Mjolnir, with which he had a pretty special and intimate relationship (according to Korg at least), is one of the most recognizable weapons from the MCU. Even those who can’t quite pronounce its name, like Darcy in Thor: The Dark World, know what it looks like. And it just happens to look great as a key ring.
This Mjolnir replica from Thor: The Dark World weighs 2.56 ounces and it’s 1.1 x 0.9 x 4.2 inches big. The design is very detailed, with a brown handle, leather strap at the end, and no additional writing.
6 THOR: 3-MOVIE COLLECTION
Thor is one of three Marvel characters to have a trilogy under his belt. As one of the core Avengers, Thor joined the MCU in 2011 with Kenneth Branagh’s Thor, a movie that told the origin story of the God of Thunder. In 2013, Thor returned in the divisive Thor: The Dark World, a film that holds the lowest Rotten Tomatoes Score (66%) of any MCU movie.
The third installment in the trilogy, Taika Waititi’s Thor: Ragnarok, on the other hand, is widely considered one of MCU's best films. This movie collection includes all three films with lots of special features and it’s a great gift for that Thor fan in your life.
5 MARVEL THOR MJOLNIR CERAMIC SCULPTED MUG
Thor’s hammer is perfectly shaped to be turned into a mug, there’s no doubt about it. However, that mug might not actually be quite suitable for drinking. On the plus side, it makes for an awesome decorative piece you can display on your desk or shelf, or it can be used to hold other items like pencils and such.
This glossy Mjolnir ceramic sculpted mug is quite sturdy and rather large, but also surprisingly light. If that friend of yours who likes Thor has a birthday coming up, here's another great gift idea.
4 QUANTUM MECHANIX THOR RAGNAROK Q-FIG DIORAMA STANDARD
Thor: Ragnarok effectively rebooted the God of Thunder. Aside from a new more light-hearted take on the character and his world, Taika Waititi gave Thor a brand-new look. With short hair, courtesy of Stan Lee, and an exciting gladiator costume, Thor looked like a completely different character in the best possible way.
Most MCU fans loved the new Thor, which means the merchandise for the film is quite popular. This awesome Quantum Mechanix Thor diorama stands at 4’5’’ tall and it’s a great gift for any fan of the God of Thunder. Plus, there's a Hulk diorama that goes with it and together they look absolutely amazing.
3 PERFORMA MARVEL SHAKER

The gauntlets on his arms and his sturdy boots are sculpted to perfection and designed to capture the classic Asgardian armor.
The red cape flows on his back and comes with a removable faux-fur collar, and the Mjolnir, of course, comes with the inscription. With three pairs of both casual and action pose hands, this sixth scale figure is a worthy collectible.
