The Sideshow Collectibles booth is always one of the highlights of San Diego Comic-Con, and 2022 is definitely no exception. With a massive display featuring iconic heroes and villains from franchises like Star Wars, Marvel, DC, Resident Evil and The Witcher, there’s something for everyone in this year’s lineup.
Check out the slideshow gallery below for a closer look at the many jaw-dropping statues, figures and life-size busts on display at Sideshow’s booth:
With so many cool pieces on display, it’s hard to narrow things down to just a few standouts. But we’re definitely impressed with Sideshow’s Star Wars statues this year, particularly the Premium Format Figures based on The Mandalorian and the Star Wars Mythos: Darth Vader statue. The latter might just top the original for being one of the best Star Wars collectibles ever produced, depicting a battle-ravaged Dark Lord of the Sith with a flaming lightsaber.
Several of Sideshow’s partner companies are also displaying new items at the show. Hot Toys continues to deliver stunningly lifelike figures from the Marvel, DC and Star Wars franchises. Unsurprisingly, Hot Toys is going especially Batman-heavy this year, with figures based on 1989’s Batman, the Dark Knight trilogy and Robert Pattinson’s version of Batman.
Hot Toys is also (finally) showing off new versions of Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield’s versions of Spider-Man, as seen in Spider-Man: No Way Home.
For gamers, the real centerpiece of this display is undoubtedly Pure Arts' Lady Dimitrescu statue from Resident Evil: Village. Even at 1:4 scale, this statue is practically the size of a middle school child.
There's tons of news for all your favorite shows, films, games, and more coming out of San Diego Comic-Con 2022, and we've got the full schedule to guide you through the weekend of panels, announcements, trailers, and surprises.
