Fans of the “Werewolf by Night” TV special might have expected the show’s titular character to get the first Hasbro Marvel Legends figurine. To the surprise of many, revealed by the debut trailer, it’s actually Man-Thing who takes center stage with his own figure. Known for his power of igniting fear with a touch, the swampy entity—also known as Ted—steals the spotlight, even having starred in a previous Lionsgate movie.

The action figure shares some parts with previous models, yet Hasbro has innovated with a new head, torso, forearms, and shins for Man-Thing. Additionally, it includes an alternative set of hands. Retailing for $39.99, this figure stands as tall as a regular build-a-figure, dominating over standard-sized characters. It will be exclusively available via fan channels, with preorders opening at 1 p.m. eastern on June 13, and shipping is expected later in the autumn season.
The anticipation is palpable on whether the Werewolf by Night might also get a similar treatment. It typically takes a toy company around two years to respond to market demands, unless an extraordinary scenario occurs, such as the sudden surge in demand for “Baby Yoda” merchandise.
There is also a possibility that Hasbro may release a black and white variant, though they did not take this rout with the WandaVision series. It seems testing the market on such exclusives is still under consideration, similar to strategies employed by competitors like McFarlane Toys.
