Marvel’s Sorcerer SupremeDoctor Strangehas landed in San Diego…in action figure form, that is.Benedict Cumberbatchwill likely make an appearance during Saturday’s panels to promoteDoctor Strange— we already know directorScott Derricksonwill be there — but Hasbro revealed the new Stephen Strange in full costume as part of their Marvel Legends toy line.
Revealed this morning at a Hasbro brand preview breakfast at the Con, the Marvel Legends toy line features figures forDoctor Strangebased on his appearance in the recentDefenderscomics, as well as fellow mystic Brother Voodoo. But there are at least two movie tie-ins — Cumberbatch’s Strange (complete with multiple hand gestures and some spell work) andChiwetel Ejioforas sorcerer Baron Mordo.
Also noteworthy is the Dormammu figure. We know thatMads Mikkelsenis playing the main villain inDoctor Strange, but fans have been wondering whether the demon from another dimension would show his fiery face. The character’s presence in the Marvel Legends reveals may very well have zero connection with the film, though it’s intriguing that two out of the threeDoctor Strangefigures are made in the likeness of the film’s characters. Hasbro did not immediately respond to Collider’s request for comment. Elsewhere, the Marvel booth on the convention floor put some of the costumes on display, including those for Strange, Mordo, andTilda Swinton’s The Ancient One.
Doctor Strangealso featuresRachel McAdamsas a fellow surgeon of Strange’s,Benedict Wongas Wong,Scott Adkins,Michael Struhlbarg, andAmy Landecker. The story centers on renown neurosurgeon Stephen Strange who loses the use of his hands in a car accident. In a desperate attempt to search out a cure, he stumbles into the world of magic and alternate dimensions.
The film will hit theaters on November 4th. See photos of the new action figures below, in addition to others of Spider-Man, Green Goblin, Iron Fist, and more:
