2025-2026 Rumor/Leak List - UPDATED List 9-9-25 (after the livestream)

Of course they'd focus on that awful Avengers The Crossing storyline because it just screams 1990's, the decade they collectively adore. We'll see Teen Tony soon I suppose.
If they wanted to do a better 1990s storyline they should have gone with Operation: Galactic Storm.

Too bad they didn't focus on the far superior storylines from other decades instead like:
1960s - Kree/Skrull War
1970s - Celestial Madonna Saga
1970s - Korvac Saga
1980s - Under Siege
Galactic Storm would be great because then maybe I could get a Clint Barton Goliath. I don't even care if he's just a basic 6 inch figure.
 
Are they really going for this Scarlet Witch and Vision? Bold.

Those are some pretty terrible costumes.
 
Any thoughts on the Maximum Thor? Are we assuming classic? King Thor? Coipel?

The only one I know we won't get is Thor: The Mighty Avenger because I'm the only person who bought that series (though I did buy it 3 times for good measure).

I hope it's a Simonson Thor. I really like the 80th Anniversary Thor, but there's not much to do with it. Something like that with a little more articulation, a more maneuverable cape, and a bunch of hammer effects would be great.

If it's any kind of Thor other than the 80s, though, I'm not interested. That's just what he looks like.
 
I mean...they are objectively bad costumes but at least they are different from what we already have and thus would be worth buying...even that ridiculous hideous Hawkeye and that absurd Deodato Thor costume.

I'd take a Coipel, definitely, but if it were specifically Simonson Thor I'd probably prefer that.
 
I pray that the Ghost Rider is a Robbie Reyes version ... along with a big Mephisto hiding somewhere over the next year of releases!
 
I don’t think Vision’s 90’s suit is all that bad. Wanda’s is definitely of the era. I’d actually love that black and white costume for Quicksilver. If they were bent on doing an obscure Wanda costume, I’d absolutely buy her in her later 90’s gypsy look from the Busiek/Perez run.

Maybe Maximum Thor isn’t classic OR Copiel and it’s his 90’s S&M get up! (Which I have some fondness for from Marvel vs DC)

I’d definitely love another refinement for a classic Bronze Age Thor, but Copiel would certainly justify the Maximum price a little more. So curious to see what that ends up being.

This is actually the era I was regularly buying Avengers comic as a kid. I’m sure I’m in the minority, but I have a fondness for this era.

Also, for the end of the West Coast Avengers run where it transitioned into Force Works.

I’d be up for West Coast Avengers and Force Works!

I’d really love figures for the current West Coast Avengers lineup. Bring on all the Ultron variants!

Interesting set of leaks. Not enough Iron Man for me. Not sure what Iron Man mark 3 (gray) means.

Hope Punisher is Punisher War Machine! But a comic sculpt and not MCU reuse.

Marvel Rivals is fun, and I’d be up for those figures.

Maximum Thor should be amazing. Classic or Coipel are my wishes. Either should end up fantastic.

That Hulk rumour is all kinds of disappointing though. So few waves, and so many villains yet to cross off, and not a one of them here.

Glad someone said something! Yeah I wanted A-Bomb and something else we haven't gotten. I mean I will likely buy all of them and Absorbing Man along with Abomination should be inspired new figures. Cyborg Hulk looks cool...but damn we're not getting anywhere.

Overall though I LOVE what they're doing with the brand. For the last 2 years or so they are really making toys I want. Not simply reusing the same things to "add characters" I want cool shit. Yes characters too as noted above, but Rivals Moon Knight and the rest look to be amazing toys. Punisher gets love and I'm wondering if "Punisher Mecha" is a Dragon-Man size MTO comic thing. I'm in for any 90s stuff although getting real impatient on the X-Men cartoon. I'd like them to sneak Magic the Gathering proper onto shelves too.

Lots and lots to look forward to - I hope we see this '97 Wave 3 and retro Iron Man wave soon because right now there is a ton of information without pics. As for Maximum, Thor is the perfect choice, I just personally still think the one from 2019 is great and Coipel from way back in 2012 is more deserving of an update plus a cooler design.
