McFarlane Toys just dropped a massive wave of pre-order announcements, exclusive reveals, and upcoming collector line expansions during their latest live broadcast. The McFarlane Toys livestream DC reveals was hosted by AJ, John, and Claudio. The presentation offered a comprehensive look at what action figure collectors can expect to add to their shelves throughout May, June, and July of 2026.

From pre-posed “Todd’s Mods” to deeply nostalgic animated designs, Todd McFarlane’s team is keeping the DC momentum moving fast. Here is a breakdown of every major reveal and pre-order date announced during the event.

The Return of Todd’s Mods: Plastic Man & The Penguin

Kicking off the presentation was the highly anticipated return of Todd’s Mods, McFarlane’s line of uniquely styled, pre-posed dynamic figures. First teased at Toy Fair, these pieces are designed to serve as stylized accent pieces for character displays.

• Plastic Man: This figure embraces the character’s signature goofy and bizarre nature. While it is a pre-posed figure rather than a fully articulated traditional release, the sculpt highlights the malleable, elastic nature of the character, making it a standout addition to any Justice League shelf.
• The Penguin: Featuring a highly distinct, classic comic aesthetic, this unique sculpt offers a sharp stylistic departure from standard articulated releases.

Pre-order Date: Both Todd’s Mods figures go up for pre-order on May 21, 2026.

Retro Super Friends Wave 5 & Red Platinum Variants

For fans of classic animation, the team officially unveiled Super Friends Wave 5. These 6-inch scale retro figures feature approximately 12 to 14 points of articulation, closely matching the nostalgic aesthetic of the beloved cartoon series.

The wave splits into a standard mass-market release and highly coveted in-store Chase variants.

Standard Mass Pre-Orders (May 28)

• Farmer Superman & Mister Mxyzptlk (Mixie): A highly detailed two-pack showcasing Clark Kent in his rural attire alongside the mischievous imp.
• Black Vulcan: Making a striking debut with a highly accurate costume sculpt.
• Wonder Woman: Featuring a classic comic book-accurate paint job complete with molded blue hair highlights and her signature Lasso of Truth.

Red Platinum Edition Store Exclusives

The stream confirmed three rare “Red Platinum” variants that will hit physical store shelves at GameStop, Walmart, and Target:

• Evil Wonder Woman: Sporting an entirely unique, aggressive chest piece design distinct from the standard wave release.
• Crystallized Superman: A fully translucent, see-through variant pulling directly from classic comic storylines.
• Phantom Zone Batman: Highlighting sharp, stylized line art across the head sculpt and cape, a visual style the team noted they hadn’t attempted on a Batman figure prior to this wave.

Pre-order Date: The main Super Friends wave opens for pre-orders on May 28, 2026.

Batman: The Animated Series (BTAS) Target Exclusives

Saving the final major DC reveal for last, John and Claudio showcased a brand-new Build-A-Figure (BAF) wave dedicated entirely to Batman: The Animated Series. This wave will be completely exclusive to Target stores.

• The Ventriloquist & Scarface: The classic mobster duo, complete with a tiny, detailed Scarface puppet accessory.
• Detective Harvey Bullock: Gotham’s grittiest detective arrives with a chocolate donut accessory.
• Talia al Ghul: Sporting her recognizable blue and gray outfit to display right next to Ra’s al Ghul.
• Dick Grayson (Red Suit): A vibrant red repaint paying homage to the classic Tim Drake design, functioning beautifully as an Elseworlds or transitional Robin look.
• Build-A-Figure – Renee Montoya: Serving as the reward for completing the wave, this figure marks the return of a highly sought-after character who was previously locked behind a rare, out-of-print Gotham City 5-pack.

Release Date: This BTAS wave is scheduled to arrive on shelves in July 2026.
