Adorable ‘The Fantastic Four: First Steps’ Collectibles Arriving Soon
by Gary Catig
The Fantastic Four: First Steps is one of the most anticipated films of the summer. It releases July 25th, 2025, and introduces Marvel’s first family into the Marvel Cinematic Universe — or is that Multiverse? But Reed Richards, Sue and Johnny Storm, and Ben Grimm are appearing on more than the big screen. They will all be featured on numerous products and merchandise, but we are going to focus on the more adorable collectibles.
Funko Pop! are some of the most ubiquitous pop culture collectibles out there, and there won’t be any shortage of Fantastic Four related vinyl figures out there. However, we want to spotlight the store exclusives.
From Entertainment Earth is the The Fantastic Four: First Steps The Thing (Trench Coat). It’s cute to think a fedora and trench coat is enough to completely disguise this superhero.
Target has its own versions of the entire Fantastic Four. Have your choice of Human Torch, Invisible Woman, Mr. Fantastic, and The Thing or collect them all. What makes these figures different is that they are in their astronaut suits.
H.E.R.B.I.E. is the family’s robot assistant, and you can take him home with you thanks to Hasbro. The Marvel Studios The Fantastic Four: First Steps Marvel’s H.E.R.B.I.E is a 4” action figure with smooth rolling wheels. It shares the analog retro look of its movie counterpart, and you can activate its moving eyes and sound effects by pressing down on its head.
If you like the chibi-esque looks of Funko Pop!, but want more details, why not try Iron Studios MiniCo line. There is an entire collection of statues from the film including the titular group and one of the villains, Galactus.
