2025-2026 Rumor/Leak List - UPDATED List 10-9-25 (after NYCC Panel)

Who's the Mr. Freeze looking character, beside Texas Twister? Kinda looks like Iron-Man and Mr. Freeze had a love child.

Apparently that is Fifty-One. I've never heard of him!

 

[Thor-El]

Texas Twister/Shooting Star 2-pack would be good given the characters’ relationship.

 

[BasilElks]

Apparently that is Fifty-One. I've never heard of him!

Oh ok, thank you. And yeah, I've never heard of them, either, but he does look kinda neat.

Fifty-One is an alien who didn't land in New York City, unlike the trope vast majority of other alien visitors, invaders. As such, he ended up being a late Initiative recruit to the Rangers in Chris Yost's really well done Scarlet Spider series. He was kind of a cool character. I'd definitely like to see more of him.

Marvel just announced the new Iron Man title launching in January 2026 with a new armor design.

Given Hasbro's track record recently, let's just pencil this in as our first 2027 leak... probably..

 

[Fletch]

"Mark 75." Whatever.

Artists will start a new series thinking they're going to permanently leave their mark on Ironman's legacy by giving him new, definitive armor, and chances are no one will remember it in three years.

That's 75 armors in 65 years, and I think maybe six of them have withstood time.

 

[AceofKnaves]

Yellow shoes with red spats is an interesting choice, there.

If you really get into the nitty gritty of it.. It's about 60 armors in the last 25 years, but I also have my opinions on the armor designations in general.

 

[Thor-El]

With comic armors looking more and more like movie armors, my desire to add them to my Armory lessens. And that Mark 75 right there is one I’ll be skipping unless forced to buy it for a BaF piece should a figure of it get made.

Please stop making fun of @Damien's footwear.

He's ... sensitive about it.

Yeah I see a lot of notes taken from the MCU particularly in the upper body and the jawline of the helmet.

Not that I would pass on any comic armor, but the design is pretty generic Iron Man-y. No real risks taken (outside of his footwear) so I don't have a ton of critique on the overall design.. For me it will come down to how much I like the book to determine the level of enthusiasm i have for buying the eventual figure I'm assuming Hasbro will make..

 

[Chooch555]

Agreed with @Resilient - I'm not seeing the hook here.

 

[mrArticulate]

Still hopin’ for Simonson armor Thor with frog

 

[TFitz]

But he also wants Kylun, so do we care if he whines?

But can we trust an alien who’s too incompetent to find their way to New York? Something’s fishy in the state of Texas.
