McFarlane Toys’ Latest Spawn Figure Crossover Sparks Collector Fatigue

The reveal of the McFarlane Toys Spawn x Call of Duty: Burned Spawn 7’ Figure has been met with a mixed reception from the retro collecting community. While the figure itself boasts a detailed, battle-damaged aesthetic, a vocal segment of fans are expressing deep fatigue.

Many collectors are questioning the need for yet another Spawn variant, lamenting the lack of a diverse figure line that includes other beloved characters from the classic 90s comic series. The sentiment is that the market is being flooded with numerous iterations of Spawn himself, often through cross-branding deals, while supporting characters and classic villains remain neglected.

Some comments highlight the specific reuse of parts from previous figures, such as the Mortal Kombat Spawn mold, with only minor alterations. Despite the high-quality look of the new Call of Duty-themed figures, a significant number of long-time collectors state these are an easy pass, citing a desire for McFarlane to return to the roots of the franchise and release figures of the original, familiar cast.
