The floor of Toy Fair 2026 is buzzing, and the NECA booth has officially stolen the show for DC fans. From nostalgic 8-inch clothed figures to a massive quarter-scale tribute to the new Superman film, NECA is proving that they are still the kings of cinematic collectibles.
Here is the full breakdown of the DC reveals currently on display in New York City.
Batman Returns: The 8-Inch Clothed Trio
NECA is doubling down on the “Burton-Verse” with a brand-new line of 8-inch clothed action figures. These pay homage to the vintage Mego-style lines of the past but with modern sculpting and high-end soft goods.
- Batman (Michael Keaton): Featuring a tailored suit and a poseable wired fabric cape.
- Catwoman (Michelle Pfeiffer): The standout of the booth, featuring her signature stitched catsuit and a whip.
- The Penguin (Danny DeVito): Complete with a removable fabric coat, top hat, and umbrella.
These figures are scheduled to go up for pre-order on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2026, directly from the NECA Store.
Superman (2025) 1/4 Scale Figure
Perhaps the most imposing piece at the booth is the Quarter Scale Superman based on the 2025 James Gunn film. Standing at a massive 18 inches tall, this figure features the likeness of David Corenswet.
- Details: The suit texture is pulled directly from the film’s digital scans, and it features a premium fabric cape with internal wiring for “hero poses.”
- Release: Pre-orders are currently estimated to ship in Q2 2026.
Toony Classics Series 2: Gotham Favorites
For fans of the stylized look, NECA showcased the upcoming Toony Classics Batman, Penguin, and Catwoman. These 6-inch scale figures lean into the “Saturday morning cartoon” aesthetic, reimagining the classic comic versions of these characters with bold colors and exaggerated silhouettes. Each comes on a vintage-style blister card with a bonus cutout backdrop.
Why the NECA Booth is Trending
Collectors are particularly excited about the 8-inch scale figures. By utilizing real fabric, NECA has captured the unique textures of the Batman Returns costumes, especially Catwoman’s gloss and the Penguin’s fur-lined collar, in a way that plastic simply can’t replicate.
