NECA has revealed its three Summer Convention Exclusives for 2026, which are heading to the San Diego Comic Con in July. As well as access at the convention, there is also a pre-sale option through the NECA Store, which is open from 12pm (ET), which is 5pm in the UK. Ordering from NECA will see the items ship after the convention.


Up first is a new Ben Cooper costume 'Mummy' figure featuring glow-in-the-dark decor. It also comes with a pumpkin bucket and is packed in a retro-style window box that also has glow-in-the-dark decor.



The second release is a new 8-inch DC action figure of Batman. This homage to the original DC Batman comic features the 8-inch articulated Batman in a tailored fabric suit and cape. He comes with a selection of hands, a few different Batarang designs, Grapnel launcher, Bat-cuffs, and Bat-Knuckles. Batman will come in a window box.



The third and final Summer Convention Exclusive is the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles as seen in the 2012 animated series, but with a white and black-lined sketch style decor. Each Turtle comes with his signature weaponry as well as extra heads and hands and some other items like Pizza slices, scanners and communicators. The set also includes a bonus full colour accessory set to enhance the standard releases of the 2012 Turtles with different heads, skateboard, bow/arrow, pizza slices and weapons kit.



Add to your Ben Cooper Costume Kids Collection with this 2026 Con Exclusive from NECA! Based on the licensed kids’ Halloween costumes of the 1950s–‘80s, this fully poseable, 6-inch Mummy action figure perfectly captures the vintage horror spirit. Wearing a mask styled after the original Ben Cooper Mummy design and soft goods clothing replicating the look of the classic vinyl costume, this collectible is ready to make some mischief on your shelf. The mask, costume, and pumpkin bucket accessory all glow in the dark for some extra spooky fun! It comes in a numbered, retro-style window box that also glows in the dark and pays homage to the classic costume packaging.



NECA proudly presents retro-inspired action figures paying tribute to iconic DC Comics characters in their classic comic book styles. Celebrate over 80 years of Batman comics with the “Dark Knight” himself! This fully articulated 8-inch scale Batman action figure is dressed in tailored fabric clothing inspired by vintage toy lines. Wearing his unmistakable black and gray Batsuit and cape, this 2026 Con Exclusive includes interchangeable hands, several Batarangs, Grapnel Launcher, Bat-Cuffs, and Bat Knuckles—an arsenal of tools to protect Gotham City! Comes in collector-friendly window box packaging with slipcover, perfect for your superhero display.



Booyakasha! NECA is proud to present all-new action figures from Nickelodeon's hit 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated series!

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...
