We’re living in a golden age of collectible figures right now, thanks to the rise of high-end sixth-scale figures that look incredibly realistic. Whether you’re looking to build your very own Marvel Cinematic Universe or you want to celebrate a pop-culture icon, there’s likely a figure out there just waiting to be added to your shelf. Sideshow Collectibles has become one of the go-to online stores for assembling sixth-scale figures–and many other types of collectibles–with Hot Toys being one of the more popular brands featured.
The Hong Kong-based toy manufacturer regularly releases new sixth-scale figures, and it holds licenses for Marvel, DC, and a slew of other IP, including breakout hits like K-Pop Demon Hunters. If you’re looking to get one of these collectibles, we’ve rounded up several of the best figures currently available to preorder. One thing to note here is that Hot Toys has a long lead time for new releases, typically from 1-2 years, but the silver lining is that it makes buying one of these admittedly pricy collectibles easier on your budget.
Sideshow Collectibles offers a pretty great payment plan, so you can pay off most of your purchase over several months, and you’ll earn rewards points once the figure is in your hands. Some of our top recommendations here include the Iron Man figures, as these combine attention-grabbing mechanical details and light-up features with realistic headsculpts of actor Robert Downey Jr. Prefer the DC Universe? Then you’ll want to check out upcoming preorders like the beastly Absolute Batman or the trimmer vigilante seen in 2013’s Batman: Arkham Origins.
Movie fans are also well-catered, as Hot Toys is bringing out figures based on the terrifying ‘Big Chap” Xenomorph from the first Alien movie, a Revenge of the Sith-era Darth Vader who is fresh off the operating table, and John Wick is thinking he’s back–as a sixth-scale figure.
Check out the list below for even more of our favorite figure preorders available at Sideshow Collectibles.
K-Pop Demon Hunters
$260 – $280 | Releases January – June 2027
All three members of Huntrix are getting reimagined as highly detailed figures, and these K-Pop Demon Hunters come armed with everything they need to take on the forces of darkness and put on a successful concert.
The Matrix Reloaded: Neo
$270 | January – June 2027
Hot Toys has previously released Neo figures based on his first and recent appearances in The Matrix franchise, but at long last, we get to see The One at the height of his power. This new version of Neo is pulled directly from the Chateau fight scene from The Matrix Reloaded, and if you remember that battle against the Merovingian’s henchmen, then you’ll recall that Neo flexed his weapon skills against the deadly programs. Appropriately, this figure comes with an arsenal of medieval weapons, a chateau backdrop, and even a pole weapon in case you want to 3D print several hundred Agent Smith figures for an ambitious Matrix diorama.
The Silver Surfer
$255 | January – July 2025
A figure that you’ll definitely want to handle with care–and a pair of gloves–the Silver Surfer looks like he just flew straight out of the classic comic books that first introduced him to the world. The figure features a newly developed head sculpt and a newly developed body finished in a glossy silver-colored electroplated design, and to keep him on his cosmic surfboard, magnets in the accessory and the Surfer’s feet will help him stay firmly planted. You can also create a dynamic scene with a pair of translucent purple effect hands and Thor’s hammer, Mjolnir.
The Dark Knight Returns: Battle-Damaged Batman
$285 | January – June 2027
This isn’t the first Dark Knight Returns Batman that Hot Toys has produced, but this version features something that the original didn’t: a detailed headsculpt of an older and more determined Bruce Wayne. The costume has also been updated to the lighter blue outfit seen in later issues, and it’s full of rips, tears, and blood from what must have been a brutal battle.
The Dark Knight Returns Superman
$275 | January – June 2027
You can also turn your TDKR Batman display into an impromptu pairing of the World’s Finest with this Superman figure. The spitting image of the Last Son of Krypton as he appeared in the mini-series, Superman sports an impossibly muscular body, comes with several alternate headsculpts, and accessories that can be used to recreate scenes from the comics.
Pelegostos Chief Jack Sparrow
$300 | July – December 2026
Based on his appearance In Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest, Captain Jack Sparrow has been recreated as the living god of a local tribe. The figure builds on previous Jack Sparrow figures with an uncanny likeness of actor Johnny Depp, and it comes with interchangeable hands to recreate Jack’s expressive gestures, along with a finely tailored costume that reflects his time with the tribe.
Knightfall Batman (Batman: Arkham Origins)
$280 | July – December 2026
Like the Batman games before it, Batman: Arkham Origins put a cool spin on several iconic outfits that the Caped Crusader has worn over the decades. One of the coolest was this fresh take on the battle-suit donned by Batman’s replacement during the Knightfall saga, and this figure captures the menacing intensity of it perfectly. There’s a masked headsculpt with LED light-up function on the eyes, armor painted in bold gold and blue tones, LED-lighted gauntlets, and a wire-embedded cape to complete the look.
Mr. Freeze (Batman & Robin)
$385 | March – June 2026
And now for a figure that looks very ice, you can pick up this Mister Freeze collectible soon. Based on his appearance in Batman & Robin, Mr. Freeze is decked out in his flashy armor, and the metallic sections have been enhanced with translucent and iridescent color parts, LED lights, and the unmistakable face of actor Arnold Schwarzenegger. The Deluxe Version also includes an exclusive set of glider wings with a metallic finish and a frozen environment-themed diorama figure base.
One Piece: Chopper
$270 | June – December 2026
There’s no denying that Chopper is the adorable mascot of One Piece, and you can add the plucky doctor to your collection with this hyper-realistic replica. Standing 48.5cm, the figure features a newly developed head and a specialized soft body covered in brown plush fabric. Magnetically interchangeable mouths, six pieces of interchangeable cloven hoof hands covered in flocked fabric, and an internal armature complete this impressive replica.
Daredevil: Born Again
$280 | Releases April – September 2026
With the second season of Daredevil: Born Again out soon, now is a great time to pick up this new version of the man without fear in his updated costume.
Predator: Badlands – Njohrr
$370 | Releases January – June 2027
While he won’t be winning any father of the year contests, Dek’s dad Njohrr is still an intimidating Predator to have on your shelf.
Predator: Badlands – Dek and Thia
$405 | Releases January – June 2027
Speaking of Predator Badlands, you can also add Dek and Thia to the collection. Unfortunately, Thia’s legs are nowhere to be found.
Indiana Jones: Temple of Doom version
$360 | Releases January – June 2027
Kali-Ma! This version of Indy is based on the whip-wielding archeologist seen in the creepiest film in the series, Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.
Terminator 2: Judgment Day Battle-Damaged Endoskeleton
$400 | Releases July – December 2026
Very shiny and very chrome, this T-800 Endoskeleton looks ready to crush the human resistance once and for all.
Iron Man Mark XLIII
$450 | Releases January – June 2027
This isn’t the first time that Hot Toys has developed a Mark 43 Iron Man, but this 2.0 edition features several major upgrades when compared to the original.
Batman: Arkham Origins
$300 | Releases January – June 2027
After dipping its toes into the Arkham Origins universe with an XE Suit Batman a few years ago, Hot Toys is finally ready to unleash a Dark Knight dressed in his signature batsuit from his early days as a Gotham vigilante.
Alien: Big Chap Xenomorph
$315 | Releases July – December 2026
With the Alien franchise turning 50 soon, what better way to celebrate than by grabbing the Big Chap himself? This figure is also a 2.0 update, and it’s bigger, creepier, and more detailed than the original.
Suicide Squad: Harley Quinn
$315 | Releases July – December 2026
Yet another 2.0 release, Hot Toys is addressing one of the biggest criticisms of the original Harley Quinn from Suicide Squad by giving her a completely redesigned headsculpt and an even more accurate wardrobe.
RoboCop
$300 | Releases July – December 2026
Following the release of the RoboCop 3 figure a few years back, Hot Toys is going back to RoboCop 2 for this new figure. It sports an iridescent metallic finish, a new headsculpt, and even some neat battle damage parts.
Darth Vader
$495 | Releases April – September 2026
While Hot Toys has released many Darth Vader figures over the years, this Revenge of the Sith-era collectible will likely be popular as it’s based on a version of the Sith Lord who has just endured a painful lesson in always having the high ground.
Absolute Batman
$385 | Releases October 2026 – March 2027
In a universe where superheroes are always the underdogs, Absolute Batman imagines the Caped Crusader as a blue-collar engineer who doesn’t have access to limitless funds and technologies. Instead, you’ve got a beefy Batman who uses every tool at his disposal to fight crime.
Predator 2.0
$300 | Releases April – September 2026
Another Predator for the collection, this 2.0 release is larger than the original, and it comes with new accessories. Best keep it away from any Arnold Schwarzenegger figures in your collection.
Iron Man Mark III Suit-Up version
$465 | Releases July – December 2026
This new version of the Mark 3 Iron Man suit gives you a closer look at the internals of Tony Stark’s greatest invention, as the armor can be expanded to create a “suit-up” scene straight from the original 2008 film.
John Wick
$285 | Releases July – December 2026
Based on his first movie appearance, John Wick comes equipped with swap-out hands, an arsenal of weapons, and two dapper fashion choices.

You’re going to need a lot of space on your shelf, because this Red Hulk figure will dwarf everything in your collection.
Jar Jar Binks
$285| Releases April – September 2026
Sure, he’s a goofball, but with an incredibly screen-accurate figure, this Hot Toys take on Jar Jar Binks is sure to make you smile whenever you see that silly face.
Thunderbolts: Yelena Bolova
$270 | Releases April – September 2026
We are the Thunderbolts! While it looks like only Yelena is getting a sixth-scale figure for now, there’s no harm in adding her to your collection in case Hot Toys decides to work on getting the rest of the team together.
