Thunderstrike is a Marvel Super Heroes minifigure that appears in LEGO Marvel's Avengers.
Background[]
Eric Masterson was a construction worker who was injured by a supervillain, and Thor magically fused with him to save his life. After the fusion ended, Thor was exiled from Earth due to Odin believing he had killed Loki, so Thor appointed Eric as his successor and gave him the Thunderstrike, an Uru mace with the same properties as Mjolnir.
Eric pretended to be Thor until the latter's return, at which point Eric redesigned his costume with a ponytail and a jacket, and the only thing he could think for a name when asked by a civilian as the name of the mace, Thunderstrike.
