You're going to want these after seeing X-men: First Class this weekend

In case you've been living on Krakoa for the last few months, you might've heard that a little film called X-men: First Class is opening in theaters today. Directed by Matthew Vaughn(Kick-Ass) and starring a phenomenal cast including James McAvoy, Michael Fassbender, and Kevin Bacon, the film is a look at the tumultuous origins of everybody's favorite band of globe trotting mutant superheroes. My review of the film can be read here, but in short it's so good you're going to want to stock your shelves with every bit of X-men: First Class stuff you can find. I've been a fan and devoted follower(that means I spent a lot of money) of the X-men for the better part of two decades so I already have enough collectibles and merchandise to fill two rooms, but you will want to look at some of the great X-Men: First Class items currently on sale from our friends over at Amazon!
                         
You can pick up Henry Jackman's evocative score for the film on CD for the low price of only $13.08. Or download it on MP3 for only $10.99!














Even though the film is something of a departure from the Jeff Parker and Roger Cruz comic that served as the inspiration, X-men: First Class: Tomorrow's Brightest encompasses the major themes of young people discovering their amazing new powers, while at the same time trying to fit in with a world that fears and hates them. Yours for as low as $9!











Volume 2 continues the story of the first class of new mutants at Professor Xavier's school, introducing them to a world full of other superheroes fighting for the same cause. You can pick this up for the crazy low price of only $5.41 if you hurry!











In the third volume of X-men: First Class, the five original X-men square off against The Skrulls(rumored to be showing up in The Avengers movie), Magneto's daughter the Scarlet Witch, and Black Widow! Only $3.18 if you buy now!

And if you're really hyped for the film and simply can't wait to own your copy, you can be alerted to when the Blu-Ray is ready for pre-order by going here! Or for the DVD version, just click here.











And what comic book geek's lair would be complete without one of these sweet X-men: First Class posters? This one, my personal favorite, is done in the style of the classic Astonishing X-men comic and sells for the low price of only $9.85, which you can pick up by going here.
Is the serene influence of Professor Xavier(or you're just hot for James McAvoy) is your thing, you may want this poster featuring the powerful leader of the X-men on the grounds of his estate. Also available for only $9.85 by going here.
Or maybe the rage and fury of Magneto is more your style? If so, then you'll love this image featuring the enigmatic future villain, surrounded by the steel and iron that would become the weapons in his quest for vengeance against humanity. Yours for only $9.85.
