Toy leaks are typically pretty good for spoilers, and it seems Avengers: Doomsday will be no exception. A list of Marvel Legends figures due for release in 2026 has found its way online, and it seemingly reveals the movie's main characters. 

For context, the first wave of toys for a movie like this is typically spoiler-free. However, they also usually focus on a movie's leads, as those are the ones who typically sell to the masses. It's only later that we see the more obscure or secret heroes and villains take centre stage. 

Who will that be for Avengers: Doomsday? Well, the New Avengers aren't getting much love. The Fantastic Four are highlighted (we've already seen figures for The Fantastic Four: First Steps, likely meaning they'll get new costumes here), along with two X-Men: Cyclops and Gambit.

In terms of Avengers, we have Captain America, Thor, and Shang-Chi. Robert Downey Jr.'s Doctor Doom will, of course, get his own figure, and we're intrigued by the inclusion of H.E.R.B.I.E. with Mister Fantastic.

Clearly, the lovable robot and Franklin Richards' babysitter will be making the journey to Earth-616! Here's the full list:

  • Doctor Doom
  • Thor
  • Mister Fantastic w/ H.E.R.B.I.E.
  • Invisible Woman
  • Human Torch
  • The Thing
  • Cyclops
  • Gambit
  • Captain America
  • Shang Chi

With Avengers: Doomsday now pushed to December 2026, chances are we'll be waiting to see this merchandise longer than we otherwise would have. However, if production is already underway, don't be surprised if some pieces leak online in advance!

The Cavillrine getting a figure!? Hmmm... now that's interesting. It was a good gag. Wouldn't expect it to warrant a figure, though.

Shang chi is an avenger after the most middle of the road, uninspiring debut film for the character? , not to mention the fact the actor is insufferable.Ok 👍

@SteviesRightFoo - your small opinion

Many people are hoping and pining to see Shangi Chi again

@SteviesRightFoo - Yeah, he kind of sucks and Shang-Chi was ok at best.

@SteviesRightFoo - Anyone who didn't like Shang-Chi can shut their ugly face, that movie was fantastic. I can't wait to see him as a member of the Avengers

@SteviesRightFoo - the only real stand out in that mid film was the mandarin and he dead now.

@harryba11zack - it wasn't even really the Mandarin...again. OK movie, but very forgettable.

@HowlettCommando - First 2 acts were mostly good, but the 3rd act dragged it down to an overall “just ok” movie.

@SteviesRightFoo - I’ve been hoping Doomsday would feature Shang-Chi in at least a supporting lead role. His movie was a lot of fun, and had some great action pieces, especially in the first act.

Idk much about the actor, but in the few interviews I’ve seen, he comes off as an okay guy. Seems to be a genuine fan of Marvel, which is refreshing.

@Vigor - Shang Chi was MID AF and has done nothing to be an Avenger and he's from Betaville Canadia and is a total douche that makes Brie Larson seem cool by comparison.

They'll be GREAT as Avengers. LOL

@TheCoonII - It was a touted as a "success", using the largest quotation marks possible.

@Ryguy88 - Marvel has said there'll never be a comic accurate Mandarin due to the " Racist way he was portrayed in the comics during the 60s and 70s. I remember not agreeing with this when it first came out, but honestly I kind of see it now.

@SteviesRightFoo - Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, if it didnt work for you fair enough but it had some of the best action sequences of the entire MCU and plenty want more of that and more of Shang-Chi even if they can accept there were flaws in the movie.

Lets face it origin movies rarely break formula much, they have so much to do in order to introduce the main characters whilst giving an engaging story and decent amount/level of action etc

As first movies go, for an origin film, it was nowhere near middling even IF when comparing to ALL CBM's most of which are sequels and teamups it may seem so to some. If anything for me it only had a third act issue but then there aren't many MCU films that don't, esp the origin ones.

@Malatrova15 - I’d don’t click the link nor do I plan on clicking the link, but it’s the Lego set with the mandarin in some kind of bumper car with a flamethrower right?

So Chris Evans is coming back, it's desperate but it's a desperate positive for the film.

@HashTagSwagg - psst they mean Mackie. I keep making that same damn mistake every damn time. I see Captain America and I suddenly get excited.
Captain AMackie-ca is in the movie not the actual fr Captain America.

That list looks pretty accurate if we're to believe some of the more reliable scoopers. Solid A-Team with the New Avengers and others being the other story line. It's crazy how far they've come!

If these toy leaks are accurate for character inclusions, this also means we are getting Havok and Northstar in season 2 of X-Men 97.

Channing Tatum as Gambit was horrendous
