Hot Toys has launched a premium collectible series based on The Fantastic Four: First Steps, offering 1/6-scale figures of Mister Fantastic, Invisible Woman, Human Torch, The Thing, and a giant Galactus Sofvi figure standing over 70 cm tall. The figures capture film-accurate uniforms and details: Mister Fantastic includes stretching body parts and a poseable H.E.R.B.I.E., Invisible Woman comes with force-field effects and baby Franklin Richards, and The Thing is offered with both clean and bearded sculpts.
The Galactus figure features LED-lit eyes, removable micro-figures of the core team and Silver Surfer, and scales dramatically above the rest. Pre-orders begin ahead of a 2026 release. This collection reflects Hot Toys’ commitment to storytelling through sculptural accuracy and cinematic detail, letting fans display interactive, character-rich scenes or grand dioramas with their favourite cosmic hero and villain moments.
