In a new magazine scan we get our first official look at the upcoming MAFEX Black Panther Figure by Medicom. The figure will stand roughly 6″ tall. The scan reveals that Black Panther will include two masked portraits, an unmasked portrait, multiple interchangeable hands and a dagger. The figure has a release set for August 2019 and will be priced at 8,424 Yen (about $75 USD). The images come courtesy of Toyzfrontline. You can click the headline of the story to see them all.
Looking good! August 2019 release.

Thank you for the heads up!
Now that looks good.
Mafex has replaced my need of figuarts completely. Better proportions, faces....value.
As I collect less Legends, I see me only buying figuarts. If they just did more Star Wars....from the original Trilogy.
Love this. Looks perfect. I hope its a good scale in with the figuarts though. Wouldnt wanna do a whole seperate black panther display or throw him in with the marvel legends.
Mafex is more in scale with legends than figuarts.
Which I really like, because I'll buy a Mafex Aquaman (for instance) and then display it with my Mattel Black Manta and Ocean Master etc.

And for what it's worth the SHF Black Panther is almost the exact same size as the Marvel Legends movie Black Panther.
This is the first movie related Marvel figure in a bit. But either way I don't know if they'd top SHF Black Widow or Thanos. SHF's Captain America was kinda sucky, but most of their other releases were pretty good. And Mafex's price points are getting really high.
Specifically holding out for the Mezco one, but Mafex has been killing it past year or so. And their likenesses of actors are so much more on point than SHF usually is.
How cool is this guy!!!

Definite purchase. Those high res photos sold the figure.
This looks to solve every issue and wish list from the SHF. Sculpt, head, accessories, scale. Yeah I'll get it.
I would like to see an iron man mark 50 with the accessories but we shall see
Definitely selling SHF BP when he arrives in the mail.
Only thing I wish he had were a more aggressive looking claw-hands.
