DC Multiverse dominates the wire today with McFarlane rolling out five different Batman-adjacent releases, but Mattel's Dream Date Skeletor pre-order and Hiya Toys' loaded Mechagodzilla figure are the two worth clearing shelf space for first.
Doomsday, Knightfall Bane and Robin
McFarlane's DC Multiverse Gold Label banner picked up three new first looks this week: Doomsday, a Knightfall-era Bane, and Robin. Gold Label is McFarlane's premium tier, so seeing Doomsday go toe to toe with Bane on the same release day makes for one of the stronger rogues gallery pairings this line has done in a while. These photos are surfacing through an overseas retailer, so nothing is confirmed on US release yet. We will update the moment McFarlane makes it official for domestic pre-orders.
Batman and Robin 66 2-Pack
McFarlane's DC Multiverse line just teased a first look at a Batman and Robin 2-pack pulled straight from the 1966 Adam West series. It is a fun swing back to the campy, primary-colored era of the Caped Crusader, a tone McFarlane has not spent much time on compared to its usual darker, grittier sculpts. No word yet on when or where this lands in the US, the images are coming from an overseas retailer ahead of any official announcement. Worth tracking if you collect the classic TV incarnation of Batman.
Masters of the Universe Chronicles: Dream Date Skeletor
Mattel's Dream Date Skeletor is back, this time as a pre-order through the Masters of the Universe Chronicles line. It is pulled from the 2026 Masters of the Universe film and stands 6.5 inches tall, mixing a sculpted plastic body with an actual fabric purple suit for texture you do not usually get on a MOTU figure. The set comes with an alternate pair of hands, a cane, and a cat, small touches that sell the eccentric formalwear concept the character is built around. If you missed the earlier in stock run, this is your second shot at grabbing him.

DC Multiverse Gold Label Batman: Justice League Movie
McFarlane just added a Gold Label version of its Justice League movie Batman, exclusive to GameStop. Gold Label releases typically dial up the paint and detail work over the standard DC Multiverse line, giving this one a bit more shelf presence than the original release. Right now GameStop is the only listed retailer carrying the pre-order. No word yet on if or when it expands beyond that exclusive window.
Helldivers II SA-04 Combat Technician
McFarlane is bringing the Helldivers 2 roster to shelf with the SA-04 Combat Technician, part of its 7-inch Elite Edition deluxe line. The figure runs up to 22 points of articulation and ships with interchangeable parts, enough range to pose out actual combat stances from the game rather than a stiff stand and shoot. Each one also includes an Elite Points card, a nice bonus for anyone chasing McFarlane's redemption rewards. For a game built around squad tactics and improvised chaos, having a properly poseable Helldiver on the shelf is overdue.

DC Deluxe Theatrical Edition: Catwoman, Batman and Commissioner Gordon
McFarlane's latest DC Deluxe Theatrical wave pulls three different movie eras onto one shelf: a battle damaged Catwoman from Batman Returns, Batman from The Batman, and Commissioner Gordon from The Dark Knight. It is an unusual mix since each figure is sourced from a different film rather than one unified release, but that is part of the appeal for anyone building a multi-movie Batman rogues and allies display. All three are up for pre-order now as 7 inch scale deluxe figures. Worth grabbing individually if you only need one era represented.

Arkham Knight, World's Finest and Haunted Gotham Batman
Three different takes on Batman just hit in stock status from McFarlane: Arkham Knight, World's Finest, and Haunted Gotham. Each one leans into a different corner of the character, video game armor, classic comic styling, and a horror tinted variant, so this is a solid trio for anyone who likes seeing how differently Bruce Wayne gets interpreted. All three are in stock now at Entertainment Earth, and orders over $79 ship free. A solid batch to grab together if you are filling out a McFarlane Batman shelf.
Godzilla Tokyo S.O.S. Mechagodzilla: Heavy Arms High Mobility Version
Hiya Toys is bringing Mechagodzilla's Heavy Arms and High Mobility configuration from Godzilla: Tokyo S.O.S. into their Exquisite Basic line, standing about 7.67 inches tall in ABS and PVC. The sculpt leans hard into the mechanical detailing, layered metallic paint, visible weathering, and riveted armor plating, plus the chest mounted Triple Hyper Maser Cannon front and center. The large back unit locks on to recreate the Heavily Armed loadout, and the figure ships with two railguns, thruster nozzles, a spiral claw, and an interchangeable hand to swap between firepower and close quarters poses. It is a dense, accessory loaded figure for a Mechagodzilla variant that does not show up in western toy lines nearly as often as the original.
Funko Halloween and Universal Monsters POP! Vinyl Figures
Funko has a new round of pre-orders live for its Halloween and Universal Monsters POP! Vinyl lineup, tying two of its go-to horror categories together right as the season starts ramping up. Universal Monsters has been a reliable well for Funko to pull from for years, classic horror icons rendered in that same stylized vinyl look collectors either love or skip entirely. Pre-orders are open now through Entertainment Earth. Good one to watch if you stack Funko alongside your action figure shelf.

Masters of the Universe Origins 200X: Sorceress, Sy-Klone, Trap Jaw and Man-E-Faces
Mattel's Masters of the Universe Origins 200X Cartoon Collection wave, pulling from the 2002 animated series, is in stock now at Entertainment Earth. Sorceress, Sy-Klone, and Trap Jaw are standard figures at $21.99 each, while Man-E-Faces steps up to a Deluxe release at $24.99. There is a bittersweet angle here too, Mattel confirmed at San Diego Comic-Con that both Masterverse and the 200X line are going on hiatus, so figures like this batch may be some of the last for a while. If you have been holding off on the 200X style, this is a good moment to fill in gaps before the line goes quiet.
