Hasbro has announced a series of upcoming product launches for its Marvel Legends and Transformers brands, including several retailer-exclusive items. These reveals span a wide range of price points and release dates, stretching into 2027.
The $27.99 Thing Figure and the Walmart Exclusive Wave
Hasbro is targeting budget-conscious collectors with a new Marvel Legends Thing figure priced at $27.99, as reported. This figure, which will be a Walmart exclusive, features a bearded head sculpt and interchangeable hands designed to mirror the character's appearance in the first Fantastic Four film.. According to the report, this specific figure is expected to hit shelves in Fall 2026.
Beyond the Thing, the Walmart-exclusive Avengers: Doomsday Marvel Legends wave includes figures of Shang-Chi, Captain America, and Doctor Doom. By utilizing retailer-exclusive waves, Hasbro continues a long-standing industry trend of driving foot traffic to big-box stores through artificial scarcity and movie-tie-in events.
Sky-Guard's Triple-Change and the SDCC 2026 Breakaway Reveal
In the Transformers sector, Hasbro has introduced Sky-Guard to the Age of the Primes line. The report says this 5.5-inch figure is capable of transforming into a robot, a jet, and a third mode used to form Nexus Maximus. Fans will have to wait until Spring 2027 to acquire this specific release.
The momentum continues with reveals from San Diego Comic-Con 2026, where Hasbro announced that Autobot Breakaway is also joining the Transformers : Age of the Primes collection. These complex transformation figures represent a broader shift toward "combiner" style toys that appeal to adult collectors who value mechanical engineering over simple playability.
Tamashii Nations and Iron Studios' High-End Doomsday Sculptures
Hasbro is complementing its mass-market offerings with premium collaborations. Tamashii Nations is developing new S.H.Figuarts releases based on the Avengers: Doomsday cast, while Iron Studios is producing 1/10 Art Scale statues. One notable piece from Iron Studios is a team-up statue featuring Daredevil and Elektra.
This multi-tiered approach—spanning from $27.99 plastic figures to high-end Art Scale statues—demonstrates Hasbro's intent to capture every segment of the fan market. By leveraging partners like Tamashii Nations, Hasbro ensures that high-fidelity collectors are served alongside the casual Walmart shopper.
The Timeline for the Storm Siblings 2-Pack
One of the more mysterious additions to the lineup is the Avengers: Doomsday Storm Siblings Marvel Legends 2-Pack. while Hasbro states this set will be available "soon," the report provides no specific date or price point, leaving collectors to wonder if it will precede the Fall 2026 releases.
Furthermore, the report mentions that the Walmart-exclusive wave features "and more" characters beyond Shang-Chi, Captain America, and Doctor Doom.. The identity of these additional figures remains unconfirmed, leaving a significant gap in the official roster for the Doomsday collection.
