Marvel LCD and LED HDTVs

A reader sent me a link to some very cool electronic equipment for Marvel fans. RTC23 has licensed the Marvel Universe of characters to develop Marvel character themed HDTVs. What makes these high-definition televisions unique is that they feature character art not only on the TV casing, but also on screen when you power on the unit. They have both modern and retro designs, in TVs ranging from 22 to 55 inches. Check out just a couple of the designs they have available.

Introducing the RTC23 Marvel Comics LCD & LED HDTVs. The RTC23 HDTVs feature the legendary characters of their respective Marvel hero on the TV casing. Not only are these TVs the finest LCD & LED televisions on the market, but when powered on the individual Marvel character will appear on the screen for approximately 8 seconds! The RTC23 Marvel Comics LCD & LED HDTVs are perfect for watching your favorite DVD’s, high-definition television, or playing video games. Ultimately the perfect TV or computer monitor!
