These Incredible Avengers: Doomsday Figures Give Us a Better Look at the Film’s X-Men Costumes | Comic Con 2026
Hot Toys has unveiled its first wave of collectible figures for Avengers: Doomsday, revealed during Marvel's Comic-Con panel, offering fans their clearest look yet at several X-Men characters' costumes ahead of the film's December release. The reveal follows a broader wave of merchandise announcements from multiple companies, with Hot Toys' highly detailed 1:6 scale figures notably showcasing Ian McKellen's Magneto and Channing Tatum's Gambit alongside other key characters.
The initial lineup includes James Marsden's Cyclops, Robert Downey Jr's Doctor Doom (complete with a separate throne accessory), Tatum's Gambit and McKellen's Magneto, who wears his most comic-accurate costume yet in what is expected to be his final outing as the character. Sideshow Collectibles has also displayed figures of Patrick Stewart's Professor X, Kelsey Grammer's Beast and a Sentinel, though these are not yet available for preorder. All figures will come in standard and Deluxe editions, releasing between October 2026 and December 2027, with a non-deluxe Doom figure guaranteed for release alongside the film, which opens on 18 December 2026.
