In less than a month, Richards, Sue Storm, Johnny Storm and Ben Grimm will hit the big screen in Marvel’s The Fantastic Four: First Steps All over the world. And with the premiere date of July 25, Disney and Marvel are fully focused on the reintroduction of the first family in the cinematic universe.
I hunted to see the long -awaited film since the first Teaser trailer for The Fantastic Four: First Steps was released, and while The last trailer for the first steps Has my excitement mirrors on New Heights, the merchandise of the film looks just as exciting to convey me. I had the chance to view all new first step products and drops – yes, there is a new LEGO set with the Plus and Galactus family – plus some impressive watches from Citizen and Fossil.
What is even more important, however, I met the robot Herbie of the comic book family in real life, and it has made me even more enthusiastic for the film. Especially since I want to see how this robot will play a role in the film, because it is the familiar assistant and helper of the fantastic through the house. It was an impressive robot demo, and yes, Herbie was very nice and had a pretty busy week, from hanging out at this event in NYC to a few other events and even finding time to visit a theater or two.
Unfortunately, a life-size, fully functional herbie robot is not for sale. De Robot, together with the four Fantastics, including ‘The Thing’, will eventually make his debut in Tomorrowland on the Disneyland Resort Later this summer in California. Yet the good news is that some impressive products are available now or to order, with shipping dates planned for later this year.
Ahead, I share my favorite choices of The fantastic four collections.

My Favorite The Fantastic Four: First Steps Merchandise
I will update this as we get closer to the launch and more products fall. One will be a return of the classic ‘The Thing’ hands, which indeed hits and bashs when you hit them together. These were very nice in a quick demo.
Probably the most exciting part of the products that fall to celebrate the film would A new watch from Fossil. Although it might not be as smart as devices with sensors and a screen, such as the Apple Watch Series 10 or Galaxy Watch 7, it certainly has its utility.
It is modeled on what Richards (aka mister fantastic) will wear in the film and shouts Retro, but also points to the future. Moreover, it has an LCD screen to display the time and is a secondary analog clock at the bottom. It has countless embellishments, including a fantastic 4 -logo in blue at the bottom, centered. However, the majority of the hull is made of silver aluminum, with dials and buttons on the right.
The replica is fascinating because it looks like a timepiece that you might have worn in the sixties or seventies, but that never existed in both decades. It looks like a small TV on your wrist, but with a monochrome digital main screen that you can only tell time. There are quite a few buttons, but they are more like a puzzle where you have to find out which do something. We would call it the rare gadget that forces pure will of his fake nostalgia.
The watch drops on July 7, 2025 and is probably a hard item with a limited edition, with only 904 that is produced. It is launched in addition to a more modern, circular 48 mm cabinet, the watch with a galactus theme with a great graphic watch face and slender shades of purple. It is also limited to 683 that is produced.
There is also a fantastic watch with four theme that falls from Citizen, which replaces the classic four prominent luminaires on a watch face with a nod to the four heroes of the film. All those details will be over a light blue head watch face and the entire construction of the timepiece is from the super titan material from Citizen. However, it is a limited edition; A specific number of units is not shared.
