Lootcrate Thanos Infinity Gauntlet Oven Mitt Recalled

By Mark Rodriguez

Thanos is one of the most powerful mortals in the Marvel Universe. Even without his Infinity Gauntlet he can whup all of the Avengers without even trying, even the Hulk. But it seems his Infinity Gauntlet can't withstand standard oven cooking temperatures.

THANOS REIGNS!!! Just not when it comes to baking.
This past Lootcrate's theme (and I'm referring to the classic Lootcrate, not LootAnime or LootGaming) was Power. Personally, we skipped this one for LootAnime as our past article showed. It came with things related to Marvel and DBZ, but one thing in particular was this really cool oven mitt that looks like Thanos' Infinity Gauntlet. Pretty awesome!


Well, while it looks cool it seems that it's not actually good as an actual oven mitt. It seems several people have reported actually getting badly burned when using this glove for its intended purpose. Lootcrate has told everyone to stop using the mitt and to put it someplace safe. They're going to either refund people or replace it with something of equal value. They're not exactly sure what they're going to do since they've never encountered something like this before.


This is a rather surprising turn of events, but good for Lootcrate for stepping up to the plate and trying to resolve this as quickly as possible. I'm not sure what happened. Maybe the material the glove was made of wasn't thick enough to withstand standard oven temperatures. Honestly, this is something I'd keep on display somewhere and not use as an actual oven mitt to prevent any burn or grease stains getting on it... but that's just me.

I'm curious as to what exactly will happen and what exactly people will get in return, if it's going to be a refund, a new and improved oven mitt or something new altogether. If I find out, I'll let you guys know.

"Fine... I'll do it myself!"Not with that faulty oven mitt you're not.
