The Daily Toy News desk went quiet for most of this week, so this edition rounds up a full seven days at once, headlined by McFarlane's three-way DC Multiverse Batman wave and a bittersweet farewell pre-order round for Mattel's MOTU Origins 200X line. SDCC afterglow is still rippling through the lineup too, from Super7's ThunderCats Ultimates to a fresh batch of first-look McFarlane Gold Label pieces.
Hiya Toys Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II: Super Mechagodzilla
SDCC exclusives keep rolling in alongside a stacked lineup of new pre-orders, from Hiya Toys' Super Mechagodzilla to a fresh wave of Tamashii Nations S.H.Figuarts anime figures. Mattel's massive MOTU Battle for Eternia playset just hit Amazon in stock too, so today's got something for nearly every corner of the shelf.

UPFinegures DC Comics Absolute Batman
UPFinegures, the studio formerly known as LPZZ, has a 1/12 scale Absolute Batman figure in the works based on DC's reimagined take on the character. It's an early reveal, images only for now with no accessory or paint breakdown yet, but a Q4 2026 release window puts it on the calendar for the back half of the year. Worth bookmarking if you collect 1/12 scale Batman figures and want to see how this reimagined design translates into plastic.

52Toys Figlite Street Fighter 6 Chun-Li: Outfit 2
52Toys adds another entry to their Figlite Street Fighter 6 line with Chun-Li in her second outfit, the classic blue qipao that fans have been waiting to see return. At 1/12 scale, this figure packs in over 26 points of articulation, giving you serious range for dynamic action poses. It's a focused release, no extra sub-lines or crossover gimmicks, just a well-built Chun-Li in one of her most recognizable looks. A solid pickup if you're already collecting the Figlite Street Fighter 6 wave.

Tamashii S.H.Figuarts Gundam SEED Destiny: Kira Yamato
Bandai's S.H.Figuarts line adds Kira Yamato in his Orb Pilot Suit from Mobile Suit Gundam SEED Destiny, and this one has been newly sculpted rather than recycled from an older mold. Compared to the earlier Compass Pilot Suit version, Tamashii improved the articulation here, giving you a noticeably wider range of poses. The set includes facial expression parts and pieces built specifically to recreate the final episode's battle against Durandal, plus interchangeable face options that previous Kira releases didn't have. Pre-orders open August 3rd with a release scheduled for December 2026, so Gundam SEED collectors have some lead time to plan around it.
Tamashii S.H.Figuarts Hunter x Hunter: Chloro
Tamashii Nations brings the Phantom Troupe's leader to S.H.Figuarts with this Hunter x Hunter Chloro figure. He comes with interchangeable parts, multiple facial expressions, his materialized book, and various hand pieces, so you can recreate everything from a Nen activation pose to his signature stance with a hand tucked inside his cape. Pre-orders open August 3rd with a release set for February 2027. A solid pickup for anyone building out their Phantom Troupe lineup alongside the rest of the Hunter x Hunter Figuarts wave.

Tamashii S.H.Figuarts One Piece: Shanks (Marineford)
S.H.Figuarts adds Shanks as he appeared during the Battle of Marineford, straw hat and all, to the One Piece lineup. Tamashii built in a wide range of motion along with multiple facial expression parts, so you can pose him through the more dramatic beats of that arc rather than just a single static stance. Pre-orders open August 3rd with a release scheduled for January 2027. Worth grabbing if you're assembling the Marineford cast in this scale.

Tamashii Ghost in the Shell: Motoko Kusanagi and Fuchikoma
Tamashii Nations is bringing two Ghost in the Shell releases at once: S.H.Figuarts Motoko Kusanagi and a Robot Spirits Fuchikoma, sold separately but clearly designed as a pair. Kusanagi is built with a highly articulated frame for dynamic action poses and comes with a wide range of expressive face and optional parts based on the newer anime's design. The Fuchikoma matches that same faithfulness to the new series, with its own articulated structure and a set of stylized facial expression parts, and its rear cockpit is sized to actually seat the Kusanagi figure inside. Both are set for a January 2027 release with pre-orders opening August 3rd, so if you want the full combo you'll want to grab them together.
Mattel MOTU First Ones: Battle for Eternia Playset
Mattel's Masters of the Universe First Ones Battle for Eternia playset just landed in stock on Amazon, and it's a genuinely loaded 2-in-1 set. You get both Castle Grayskull and Snake Mountain, which can sit side by side or split apart depending on how much play space you want to dedicate. Castle Grayskull has a movie-accurate Sword Altar for the included Sword of Power, an opening and closing Jawbridge, a working elevator, and a zipline for surprise attacks, while Snake Mountain packs a removable Evil Bone Throne for Skeletor to scheme from. It ships with an exclusive Golden Armor Skeletor figure, measures about 27 inches wide when fully opened, and folds down for storage when you're done displaying it. Assembly is required, and Mattel rates it for ages 6 and up.

Heatboys Hefig TMNT: Michelangelo
Heatboys continues their Hefig TMNT line with Michelangelo, available in both Deluxe and Standard 1/9th scale editions at roughly 7.87 inches tall. Both versions are built from diecast, plastic, and magnets, and come loaded with the character's signature gear, including nunchaku with multiple effect parts, a skateboard, a boombox, pizza, and a stack of interchangeable hands for different grips. The Deluxe edition goes further with a bonus "Street Rapper" styled outfit swap and an extra interchangeable head sculpt not included in the Standard release. It's a lot of diecast and plastic packed into one figure, which tracks with how Heatboys has approached the rest of this TMNT wave.
Pre-order at Entertainment Earth
Funko Tomb Raider: Underworld Lara Croft (Doppelganger)
Funko's newest Tomb Raider Pop pulls from Tomb Raider: Underworld and gives Lara Croft the Doppelganger treatment, a nice deep cut for anyone collecting the game-based Pops rather than just movie tie-ins. It's up for pre-order now directly through Entertainment Earth. There's not a ton of official detail out yet beyond the reveal images, but the sculpt alone should be enough to catch the eye of Tomb Raider collectors filling out their shelf.

Hasbro GI Joe Classified Series: File Cards
Hasbro dropped a fresh batch of file cards for the G.I. Joe Classified Series, covering Sgt. Slaughter, Drift Viper, Artic Steel Corps Trooper, Artic S.A.W. Viper, and Artic Assault H.I.S.S. Driver. File cards are the character bios that ride along with each figure, so this is Hasbro giving fans a first look at how these characters get framed before the figures themselves hit shelves. It's a nice reminder of how deep the Classified line has gotten, mixing classic Joe roster names like Sgt. Slaughter with newer Arctic-themed Cobra units. Worth a look if you follow the line's lore as closely as the figures.

Super7 ThunderCats Ultimates: Lion-O and Mumm-Ra (LED SDCC Exclusive)
Super7's SDCC 2026 exclusive brings Lion-O and Mumm-Ra to the ThunderCats Ultimates line with LED light-up eyes, based on the 1985 animated series. Both figures are built at 7-inch scale with 27 points of articulation, so they hold up well next to the rest of the Ultimates wave when it comes to posing. The light-up eyes are a nice touch for a rivalry this iconic, and it's exactly the kind of exclusive detail that makes SDCC releases worth chasing. Pre-orders are open now, so don't sleep on this one if you want the pair complete.

McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Gold Label: Doomsday, Knightfall Bane and Robin
An overseas retailer just gave us our first look at three new DC Multiverse Gold Label pieces from McFarlane: Doomsday, Knightfall-era Bane, and Robin. There's no pricing or release window yet, this is purely confirmation that they exist, but Gold Label has consistently been where McFarlane puts its sharpest sculpting and paint work. Doomsday alone is worth watching since the line rarely gets him in this kind of premium treatment. We'll circle back the moment official details land.
McFarlane DC Multiverse 66: Batman And Robin 2-Pack
Another first look worth flagging: a DC Multiverse two-pack pulling from the classic Batman '66 look, pairing Adam West-style Batman with Robin. Like most of these early sightings there's no confirmed release date or price yet, just the reveal photo making the rounds through overseas retailers. The '66 sub-line has been a nice change of pace from McFarlane's usual grim-and-gritty output, leaning into the campier, brighter aesthetic instead. Keep an eye out for a formal announcement soon.
McFarlane Toys DC Multiverse Gold Label Hush Catwoman
McFarlane's Gold Label lineup is getting a Hush-inspired Catwoman, spotted via an overseas seller ahead of any official reveal. Hush pulled a lot of its visual language from Jim Lee's art, so expect a sleeker, more comic-accurate sculpt than the movie-based Catwoman figures we've seen recently. Nothing on pricing or ship date yet since this is still an early sighting, but it's one to bookmark if you collect the Hush storyline.
Mattel MOTU Chronicles: Dream Date Skeletor
Mattel's Dream Date Skeletor from the Masters of the Universe Chronicles line is back in stock, this time as a pre-order through Entertainment Earth. It pulls from the 2026 MOTU film, dressing Skeletor in a fabric purple suit instead of the usual armor, a fun departure that plays well against the character's usual menace. The figure keeps the line's articulation standard, so it should pose well alongside the rest of your Chronicles shelf. A solid pickup if the film redesigns have been growing on you.

McFarlane DC Deluxe Theatrical Edition: Catwoman, Batman & Commissioner Gordon
McFarlane's DC Deluxe Theatrical Edition wave is rolling out pre-orders for Battle Damaged Catwoman, The Batman, and Commissioner Gordon, all at 7-inch scale. These pull straight from the live-action films rather than the comics, and the battle-damage detailing on Catwoman and Batman gives them a grittier finish than their standard releases. Deluxe releases from McFarlane tend to pack in more accessories and paint applications than the mainline figures, so this is worth a look if you want the movie cast with a bit more texture. Pre-orders are live now across the usual retailers.

Hiya Toys Godzilla: Tokyo S.O.S. Mechagodzilla (Heavy Arms/High Mobility Ver.)
Hiya Toys is bringing Mechagodzilla back with the Heavy Arms/High Mobility version from Godzilla: Tokyo S.O.S., joining their Exquisite Basic series at roughly 7.67 inches tall. The sculpt recreates the mechanical body and the MFS-3 chest marking, with layered metallic paint and weathering giving the armor real depth instead of a flat finish. It comes loaded with the chest-mounted Triple Hyper Maser Cannon, two railguns, a Spiral Claw, and interchangeable hands, so you can switch between its ranged and close-combat loadouts. If you already have Hiya's standard Mechagodzilla, this Heavy Arms variant is the more aggressive, weapon-forward take on the design.
Pre-order at Entertainment Earth
Storm Collectibles Cobra the Space Pirate (Special Edition)
Storm Collectibles is expanding their Cobra the Space Pirate line with a Special Edition figure at 1/12 scale, pulling his look from the early color illustrations that longtime fans of the graphic novels will recognize immediately. The figure comes loaded with 4 interchangeable head sculpts and 7 pairs of hands, plus a swappable left arm and prosthetic forearm, giving you real range to recreate his more expressive comic panels. His signature laser gun and lighter round out the accessory set. It's a niche pick outside the usual movie and TV lineups, but Storm Collectibles has built a reputation for nailing this kind of source-faithful sculpt.
Mattel MOTU Origins 200X: Sorceress, Sy-Klone, Trap Jaw & Man-E-Faces
Mattel's MOTU Origins 200X Cartoon Collection wave, pulling from the 2002 animated series, is in stock now with Sorceress, Sy-Klone, and Trap Jaw at $21.99 each, plus a deluxe Man-E-Faces at $24.99. It's a bittersweet drop too, since Mattel confirmed at SDCC that both Masterverse and the 200X line are heading into hiatus after this wave ships in October. If you've been meaning to fill out your 200X shelf, this is likely one of the last chances for a while. Worth grabbing now rather than waiting.
Jakks Pacific The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror: Fly Boy Bart, Grim Reaper Homer, Vampire Krusty & Werewolf Ned Flanders
Jakks Pacific is finally giving The Simpsons' Treehouse of Horror specials the figure treatment, with a 5-inch wave covering Fly Boy Bart, Grim Reaper Homer, Vampire Krusty, and Werewolf Ned Flanders. Each one is priced at $26.99 and pulls its look directly from the show's Halloween anthology segments rather than the standard cast designs, which makes for a fun shelf change of pace. They're expected to ship in Q3 2026, with pre-orders live now. A great pickup if you've wanted Simpsons figures that lean into the weirder side of the franchise.
Fanhome Harry Potter Chess Sets: 25th Anniversary
Fanhome is celebrating 25 years of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone with a subscription-based pair of chess sets, The Knights and The Dragons, delivered piece by piece alongside a 21-inch board. Each piece carries its own gimmick, from a Pawn that self-destructs when captured to a Queen that lights up as she moves across the board, and the Dragon Rooks are shaped like glowing Hogwarts towers. It's less a traditional figure release and more a collectible game system, but the sculpting detail on pieces like the fire-breathing Hungarian Horntail King makes it worth flagging for any Harry Potter collector. Early subscribers also get a bonus Checkers Set.
Super7 G.I. Joe ReAction+ Fatal Fluffy Force Pack Three-Pack
Super7 brought back their G.I. Joe ReAction+ Fatal Fluffy Force Pack three-pack, bundling all three creatures at $49.99 instead of buying them individually at $20-25 each. Fatal Fluffy started out as one of the stranger Cobra creations in the original cartoon, cute and cuddly until a silent whistle triggers the transformation into a clawed, fanged beast. Each figure stands 4.5 inches tall with 12 points of articulation and comes with a whip, flame effect, and blaster to round out the set. A fun army-building pickup if your Joe shelf needs more chaos on the Cobra side.
Hasbro Marvel Legends Series Spider-Man Retro: Spider-Man Noir
Hasbro's Marvel Legends Spider-Man Retro line adds Spider-Man Noir at 6-inch scale, pulling his look straight from the comics rather than any of the film adaptations. It's an Amazon exclusive at $27.99, which keeps it a little harder to track down than the standard Legends releases. The Retro sub-line has been leaning into these deeper comic pulls lately, and Noir's muted color palette is a nice contrast against the usual bright Spider-Man figures on the shelf. Worth grabbing if you've been building out the Spider-Verse side of your collection.
Pre-order at Entertainment Earth
Takara-Tomy Transformers Missing Link C-11 Delta Magnus
Takara-Tomy's Missing Link series adds Delta Magnus, and this one's a deep cut for G1 fans since it uses the Diaclone "Powered Convoy" color scheme that originally inspired Ultra Magnus and appeared in the pilot film for Transformers: The Movie. It's partially die-cast with movable joints that keep him fully posable even in combined mode, and the car carrier form can haul other Missing Link figures while transforming into a maintenance base, command base, or mobile operations base. He comes with a human pilot figure, a heat-reveal secret emblem, and a full accessory set including the Spear of Glory and Energy Shot Gun. At $194.99 it's not a cheap pickup, but Missing Link has been consistently one of the most faithful G1 reinterpretations on the market.
Hasbro Marvel Legends Series Spider-Man: Brand New Day - Scorpion
Hasbro's Brand New Day wave adds Scorpion to the Marvel Legends lineup at $27.99, with pre-orders live exclusively on Amazon following the wave's Comic-Con reveal. He's expected to ship this fall, giving Spider-Man villain collectors another classic rogue to round out the shelf. Brand New Day has been building out a solid rogues gallery so far, and Scorpion's tail and claw accessories should make for some fun dynamic posing next to the rest of the wave. Worth locking in a pre-order if villain figures tend to sell out fast in your experience.
Pre-order at Entertainment Earth
Jazwares Stranger Things: Holly the Heroic & Max Mayfield 2-Pack
Jazwares is rounding out their Stranger Things figure line with a Holly the Heroic and Max Mayfield two-pack, pulling looks from the show's fifth and final season. At $19.99 for the pair, it's one of the more affordable entries in the wave, with shipping expected between August 18th and September 2nd. Holly getting her own figure is a nice touch for younger fans who watched her come into her own this final season alongside Max. A good pickup for anyone finishing out their Hawkins cast before the show wraps for good.
McFarlane DC Multiverse Batman: Haunted Gotham, World's Finest & Arkham Knight
McFarlane's DC Multiverse Wave 5 Batman figures are up for pre-order, covering three distinct takes: Haunted Gotham, World's Finest, and Arkham Knight, each priced at $26.99 and expected to ship in August 2026. Haunted Gotham leans into a supernatural, isolated version of Bruce Wayne, while World's Finest and Arkham Knight pull from more familiar corners of the Batman mythos, giving the wave real variety rather than three reskins of the same sculpt. All three are up for pre-order now across the usual retailers. A strong wave if you like stacking different Batman eras side by side.
Hasbro Marvel Legends Maximum Series: Symbiote Spider-Man
Hasbro's Marvel Legends Maximum Series adds a Symbiote Spider-Man figure done up in the iconic black costume that first appeared on Battleworld and eventually gave rise to Venom. It's a deluxe release, so expect a bit more heft and detail than the standard 6-inch Legends line, with the design leaning into the smooth, alien texture that made the costume so memorable in the comics. Pre-orders are live now on both Amazon and Entertainment Earth. A strong pickup for anyone chasing the black-suit era of Spider-Man's rogues gallery, deluxe scale and all.
