15 Best Scientists In The MCU

15. The Tinkerer

Phineas Mason, otherwhise known as Tthe Tinkerer, made his only appearance in the MCU to date in Spider-Man: Homecoming as a member of Vulture's gang. Although he is only a mechanic, he has some pretty impressive inventions to his name.

The Tinkerer's scientific background hasn't been made clear, but what we do know that he is a resourceful engineer and technician. With the use of some stolen Chitauri materials, The Tinkerer has made anti-gravity guns, a matter phase shifter and even The Shocker's gauntlets.

The Chitauri are an advanced alien army with far superior technology to our own. Phineas Mason's ability to use their power to create such a wide variety of weapons is handy to say the least.

Spider-Man: Homecoming ended without giving any detail as to the wearabouts of The Tinkerer. The best guest would be the weapons creator is now in hiding. If this is the case, The Tinkerer is too useful to stay on the sidelines for long.
