Release Date: May 2026 RRP: $42.99/£34.99 With Studio Series Thundercracker's release earlier in the year the floodgates were open for a whole new range of Seekers - undoubtedly the biggest retool/redeco weapon in the Transformers arsenal. With the Transformers: The Movie 40th anniversary celebrations well underway Hasbro haven't waited long to get all the heavy-hitters out on the market either, with Studio Series Skywarp showing up at retail only a few months after Thundercracker. Despite only having a limited appearance in the movie (and one that ultimately ended in his death/reformatting), this fan favourite Decepticon was an obvious choice to join the ever-popular Studio Series.

Super Sentai ’s 50th anniversary celebrations may have been somewhat marred by the announcement of its indefinite hiatus, but No.1 Sentai Gozyuger still offered plenty of opportunity to see the franchise out (at least for the time being anyway) in style. First there was the series itself, then the Summer movie , and finally the annual crossover movie to round it all off. No.1 Sentai Gozyuger vs Boonboomger is the 31st and potentially final entry in the long-running VS series , pairing the 50th Super Sentai team up with Bakuage Sentai Boonboomger as well as featuring some familiar faces from previous series. The film was written by Tatsuto Higuchi (who previously wrote episodes for both series) and directed by Shojiro Nakazawa , a veteran of the franchise whose credits go all the way back to Mirai Sentai Timeranger .

Release Date: June 2026 RRP: $99.99/£91.99 After Hasbro spoiled Transformers fans in 2025 with the release of both Devastator and Superion in the Studio Series and Age of the Primes lines respectively, 2026 is definitely the year of Bruticus . After teasing collectors last year with Vortex , the rest of the Combaticons have been steadily releasing over the last few months. Next came Brawl and Blast Off , with Age of the Primes Onslaught next in line before Swindle rounds off the team. The leader of the Combaticons comes as as a Commander Class  figure, not only due to his own larger size but also incorporating the Bruticus combiner frame parts in the same manner Motormaster and Silverbolt did for their respective teams.

Release Date: May 2026 RRP: $42.99/£35.99 Even though the Studio Series (86) line has covered most of the main characters from Transformers: The Movie  in the five years since it began, that doesn't mean Hasbro still don't have plenty of releases on hand to celebrate the film's 40th anniversary. There are still plenty of characters that played bit parts in the movie to be featured, many of which are fan-favourites from the earlier seasons of the Generation One cartoon. One such example is the Voyager Class   Studio Series Shockwave , the loyal Decepticon who remained on Cybertron as the rest travelled to Earth at the beginning of the series. Shockwave only makes three brief appearances in the movie - the beginning to inform Megatron of Laserbeak's return, then during Starscream's coronation and finally alerting the Decepticons of Unicron's attack. Though scripted and storyboarded to die in this scene, it was left out of the final movie - leaving his fate ambigu...

Release Date: July 2026 RRP: 8800 yen Given how many years it ran for there weren't a great of characters from the Ultra Series that the old Ultra-Act line missed out on (pre- Ultraman Ginga  anyway), so every time Bandai Tamashii Nations announce something for the S.H. Figuarts line that wasn't previously covered it's particularly exciting - especially when that line is also quite extensive at this point. With a number of titular Ultras from mainline series still to be released, it's unlikely many were expecting an S.H. Figuarts Ultraman Zearth anytime soon - and yet here we are. The Ultraman from the Land of Bright in Nebula Z95 and star of two official parody films in 1996 and 1997 (the former of which was released in celebration of the franchise's 30th anniversary) arrives as a Tamashii Web exclusive , giving fans their first opportunity to own a high-end poseable figure of this rather unique Ultra.

Release Date:  July 2026 RRP: 8800 yen Evil Ultramen have become a staple part of the franchise of the years, with the tradition going all the way back to episode eighteen of the original 1966 series "Brother from Another Planet" , where Alien Zarab disguised himself as Ultraman and wreaked havoc across Tokyo in order to discredit him. With the episode also being among the ones adapted into Shin Ultraman , one would think that the original fake Ultraman would be a chief contender for an S.H. Figuarts release. Yet it wasn't until 2026 that S.H. Figuarts Imit-Ultraman finally became a reality, released as an event exclusive to commemorate Tamashii Nations Live Action Figure Expo 2026 .
