McFarlane's newest set of Theatrical Edition releases from iconic DC movies will include Superman from Superman the Movie (1978), Joker from The Dark Knight, and Bane from The Dark Knight Rises.



The Theatrical release of Superman includes three head options and a selection of hands, including one holding a shard of Kryptonite.


Joker comes with four different weapons as well as alternative hands. And Bane includes extra hands. All three figures also come with a collector card, and a mini-movie poster; both with stands for your display.



They are due to arrive with collectors later in March 2026. We have updated these full details into our extensive McFarlane Collector Database


From the doomed planet of Krypton, two parents launch a spaceship carrying their infant son to earth. Here he grows up to become Clark Kent, a mild-mannered reporter with powers and abilities far beyond those of mortal men.



No name strikes terror into the hearts of Gotham’s citizens quite like the Joker™. In a city overrun with larger-than-life criminals, the always-laughing villain stands alone. A complete psychopath with no moral compass whatsoever the Joker, whose real name and identity remain completely unknown, is characterized by his chalk-white skin, green hair and a permanent rictus grin stretched across his face. But there isn’t a single thing funny about this particular clown, who only finds humor in the suffering of others



Born and raised in the hellish prison known only as “THE PIT”, BANE was the sworn protector of TALIA AL GHUL, daughter of LEAGUE OF SHADOWS master RA’S AL GHUL. Determined to finish her father’s mission to raze GOTHAM CITY, TALIA and BANE also seek revenge against the man responsible for RA’S AL GHUL’S death – BATMAN.

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...
