Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is set to premiere in theatres tomorrow. Today we’re getting the first look at Hot Toys’ newest premium action figure. Shuri has donned the Black Panther mantle, and looks very impressive.
The figure isn’t pricey, possibly because Shuri doesn’t come with as many accessories as other MCU Hot Toys releases. She can be pre-ordered right now for $264 at Sideshow Collectibles. The expected release date is between January and June of 2024. Over the past few years, Hot Toys has drastically improved the quality of these seemingly seamless costumes. Hopefully, the company has also solved the creasing issue we’ve seen with the Spider-Man costumes.
The figure will include a portrait of Letitia Wright, but it has not been finalized yet.
