Hasbro held their first Dungeons & Dragons Fan First live stream this week (29th of March) a day after a Dungeons & Dragons showcase. The session covered the whole of Hasbro's D&D offerings including some new board game content and a new wave of Dicelings.
In the Action Figure segment we got a closer look at the three new Monster releases for the Golden Archive line of 6-inch figures. There will be a new Displacer Beast taken from the upcoming Honor Among Thieves movie. It is joined by Xanathar the Beholder and a brown variant of the Owl Bear - this pair of figures are inspired by the new movie as well as existing D&D lore from the last 50 years.
The Xanathar release is the largest of the three and will retail at £49.99 here in the UK. The figure comes with a pile of gold that also acts as a stand and his goldfish Sylgar. The Displacer Beast is priced at £39.99 will feature flexible wired tentacles and will stand 12-inches tall (including said tentacles) and will measure about the same in length. These two releases are Hasbro Pulse Exclusives and have a Summer 2023 release date - June for Xanathar and July for the Displacer Beast
The brown variant of the Owl Bear is a Gamestop Exclusive in the US, and is also sold in limited numbers via Hasbro Pulse. Here in the UK it has availability via the Fan Channel. It retails at £44.99 and like its Honor Among Thieves white equivalent, stands nearly 8.5 inches tall when posed on two legs.
There were two other reveals on the Fan Stream with a better look at Doric as played by Sophia Lillis and a new reveal of Regé-Jean Page's character Xenk Yendar. Neither of these are yet open for pre-order and official shots have not yet been shared - although Game in the UK has got some low-res images of Doric on a holding page for the figure.

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
