Peacemaker Comes to Hot Toy’s line of Figures… with Eagly!

Picking up where 2021’s The Suicide Squad left off, DC’s Peacemaker series follows Task Force X’s unhinged vigilante, Christopher Smith AKA Peacemaker, as he returns home to America — only to be promptly recruited by an A.R.G.U.S. black ops squad for the mysterious “Project Butterfly.”

This 1/6 scale figure is crafted with sophistication and features a hand-painted likeness of John Cena as he appeared as Peacemaker in the action series. The figure also features a custom tailored outfit, a newly developed helmet head, and an interchangeable helmet with silver chrome finish. An attachable tongue also allows collectors to create alternate Peacemaker expressions.

The Peacemaker 1/6 Scale Figure also comes with a wealth of awesome accessories including a range of weapons (such as a sword and an axe) — but for many fans, the highlight of the collectible is Peacemaker’s trusty sidekick and beloved BFF, Eagly! 

The Eagly 1/6 scale accessory also features swap-out spread wings for alternative posing and display options.
