Mattel’s 2025 San Diego Comic-Con showcase presents an intriguing cross-section of pop culture nostalgia and contemporary collector appeal through four distinctive offerings. The collection strategically spans multiple entertainment universes, from WWE’s wrestling legacy to Marvel’s antihero antics, Jurassic World’s prehistoric terror, and a unique crossover between Masters of the Universe and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

Each piece presented at the 2025 San Diego Comic-Con demonstrates Mattel’s understanding of collector psychology. The Ultimate Edition John Cena figure stands out for its meticulous attention to championship details across the wrestler’s career, while the Deadpool farmyard reinterpretation showcases Mattel’s willingness to take creative risks with established characters. The Skele-Shredder hybrid figure represents an ambitious merging of two villainous archetypes, and the Jurassic World T. rex set revives a classic film moment with modern collectible sensibilities.
