Not Available Lead

Guardians of the Galaxy and its five protagonists kicked all sorts of literal and figurative ass at this weekend’s box office with a $94 mil. haul. So why is Gamora, played by the stellar Zoe Saldana, being excluded from GOTG merchandise?

The awesome warrior doesn’t appear on nearly enough merchandise as her male comrades. One blogger noted this trend, citing examples like the shirt below, and has started the hashtag #wheresgamora.

Also noted was the lack of Black Widow when The Avengers merchandise came out. 

Some Gamora action figures are available, but aren’t as readily available as the rest of the Guardians. Does Disney not know how to sell women as something besides princesses? C’mon!

Thanks, Obama. We could've had "binders full of women."
