Dungeons & Dragons Questers Toy Line Revealed, Due for Release in July

Dungeons & Dragons is getting a new toy line, courtesy of Basic Fun. The toy company has announced Dungeons & Dragons Questers, a new toy line due out for release in July 2026. From the sounds of a press release announcing the line, the collectibles will come in mystery bags and will feature three scales - creatures, adventurers, and monsters. All figures will be fully buildable and will include interchangeable parts, allowing for customization. Also included in the package is a d20 die and a "story starter" for creating new stories. The initial line includes a mimic, a red dragon, and a dragonborn adventurer wearing a bag of holding. Also mentioned in the press release were kobolds.

In the press release, Basic Fun's Dan Westcott explained the concept behind the new line. “We are incredibly excited to work with Hasbro and Wizards of the Coast to help introduce Dungeons & Dragons to a new generation of players. Questers invites kids into the world of D&D in a way that feels approachable, creative, and fun for today’s young adventurers, while giving fan parents a meaningful way to share a universe they already love,” Westcott said.

No price point was revealed for the new toy line. Dungeons & Dragons Questers will be released in July 2026.

That Kobold is cute, as is the Mimic. Pity the Dragon is 2025 style but ah well. I like the cartoony style. Hopefully we will get some classics like Displacer Beasts and Gnolls and Mind Flayers. It is hard to believe that apart from the Honor among Thieves toyline and a very brief Kre-O stint, we had no D&D toys since like 1984.

Allow me this almost off-topic:

Yesterday youtube algoritm showed me the reaction of teenages to cartoons from 80s and 90s and they couldn't guess very fastly the name of famous titles like G.I.Joe or He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. They knew Skeletor thanks the meme.

I mean Hasbro needs products for preteen to earn brand-power in the youngest generations.

I keep telling people everything is NEW to a kid. I was born in the late seventies, but Snow White and Cinderella were new movies to me, as way Star Wars (which Hungary only got in the 80ies anyway).
Maybe some of the Filmation animation would be laughable to kids used to better action scenes, but I feel any 80ies or 90ies shows they could re-air today and kids would eat it up. Batman TAS, JLU, Gargoyles, Swat Kats, Ducktales...
My half-brother was only born in 2000, and when I introduced him to Batman TAS it quickly became his favourite show ever. Similarly, he much preferred the old Bond movies our dad showed him to the new Daniel Craig ones.

There was also the Hasbro cartoon line, and Super 7 did a few cartoon characters, including Tiamat!

Super 7 was going to do more, including a Vecna fig, but there wasn't enough interest

Yeah, it has to be Slag. Although did see stuffed pteradon called Swoop, some obviously someone let some trademarks lapse...

Slag has been called Slug for quite some time now, probably since 2008 or so. That even carried over to the IDW comics.
I never understood this slur, or when it started to become popular in the UK - I watched all of Monty Python and they sure swear in that show, but they never used this word. And then there was Beast Wars, where "Oh slag!" was basically the equivalent of "Oh crap!" I wonder if that show got censored too in the UK.

I meant the Hasbro line by the Honor Among Thieves one. I think the old cartoon characters were side-release of those.
I do wish Hasbro had made an articulated Tiamat, as the S7 one is pretty much just an overpriced statue. You are better off buying the Wizkids mini - especially when it was 50% off recently.
Super 7 is pretty terrible in articulation, and expensive to boot. There is a reason they advertize their stuff only with the CGI renders... Basically all their toys are built on the same MOTU style skeleton-core of a figure. As a result, for example, their Transformers with their boxy legs and arms, can barely move their thighs, and all their figures come out pretty bulky and with bad proportions. I see now why BBTS and other places keep discounting them. I sadly bought a few myself and cannot get rid of them since then, even with a discount.
