DUBAI, UAE - March 29, 2015 - PRLog -- Al Ahli Holding Group (AAHG), a multi-diversified international conglomerate based in Dubai has created history by becoming the first international company ever to showcase a high-end collectible at Marvel’s most awaited red carpet premiere of Avengers: Age of Ultron, to be held in Los Angeles, USA on 13 April, 2015.

“The launch of Hulkbuster and other exclusive Iron Man collectibles by one of our subsidiaries, Comicave Studios could not have asked for a better launch pad than the Avengers: Age of Ultron red carpet gala premiere in Los Angeles, making it undoubtedly the biggest Hollywood blockbuster event of 2015. Our strategic long-term alliance with Disney and Marvel over the years has evolved across different business segments and the recent agreement to collaborate with Marvel for the global premiere of Avengers: Age of Ultron has further enhanced our relationship with them,” said Mr. Mohammed Khammas, CEO, Al Ahli Holding Group.

The star studded premiere will have Robert Downey Jr., Chris Evans, Chris Hemsworth, Scarlett Johansson, Jeremey Renner, Mark Ruffalo and Samuel L Jackson strutting down the red carpet.

A lot of its unique features have been kept under wraps until the big event in Hollywood. The collectibles will also be showcased at the after party event of the premiere, where the biggest names of the Hollywood industry will be present.
