An exciting new look for Channing Tatum’s Gambit has been revealed recently. The latest X-Men action figure’s costume is inspired by Avengers: Doomsday.
In a first-look video from Sideshow, a new costume design for Gambit by Hot Toys’ 1/6 Scale Collectible Figure has come to the forefront. In the video, Tatum’s character can be seen donning a microfibre trench coat, which mimics a leather-like finish. Gambit also wears protective chest armor, which is dark purple in color and also has silvery linings.
The choice of lower garment includes black pants with purple stripes. Finishing off the look, Gambit wears a pair of armored boots, which are knee-high in length.
Additionally, the Gambit action figure also consists of a couple of bõ staffs. These include a kinetic energy release state and a regular one. Fans who buy the set will also have access to a wide range of translucent kinetic energy effects, which will come in Gambit’s iconic purple hue. As the company works closely with Marvel, it is expected that the costume will be quite similar to how Gambit will suit up in Doomsday.
Channing Tatum’s Gambit joins the growing X-Men presence in Avengers: Doomsday
The Marvel Cinematic Universe fans are gearing up for the year’s biggest release, Avengers: Doomsday. While there is still no update on what the plot of the movie might be, X-Men fans do have some input coming in.
According to the latest update from Variety, several of the X-Men cast who will reportedly feature in Doomsday have been revealed. Joining Channing Tatum’s Gambit in the action, Patrick Stewart is set to reprise his iconic role as Professor Charles Xavier. Additionally, Ian McKellen, Rebecca Romijn, and James Marsden will portray the roles of Magneto, Mystique, and Cyclops.
Interestingly, the entire X-Men lineup is that of Fox’s. Another intriguing aspect is that we have already witnessed Patrick Stewart’s Charles Xavier die in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. Thus, it is for sure that fans will witness Professor X from a different timeline in the multiverse.
Avengers: Doomsday is set to release on December 18, 2026.
