That is kind of funny that Hasbro's toy designers would take the time to translate a phrase into Nordic runes and not bother to proof-read it before sending it to production.
Or maybe they didn't think kids would care or be that resourceful. And to those execs, I've got four words for you: "Google search" and "Comic Geeks".
But it does bring up a little dilemma of mine: I want to get one of the hammers just so I can have my own Mjolnir, but I'm not sure which one I want to get.
The Nerf toy is pretty durable, but is woefully out out scale. The Electronic one is the right scale and the lights and noises are fun, but it seems a lot more fragile (especially since I can collapse the hammer head with my hand, though it does reform on its own). Not to mention there's a $10 difference between the two.
Decisions, decisions.
