Article Summary

Mondo unveils a limited edition 1/6 scale Mister Sinister figure inspired by X-Men '97 animation.
Figure features cel-shaded deco, swappable hands, portraits, blast effects, and unique Easter egg accessories.

Mister Sinister, also known as Dr. Nathaniel Essex, first appeared in The Uncanny X-Men #221 (1987) and was created by Chris Claremont and Marc Silvestri. He was a brilliant 19th-century geneticist who was transformed by Apocalypse. Sinister became obsessed with mutant evolution, especially the genetic lines of legendary X-Men members Cyclops and Jean Grey. His manipulations behind the scenes, including creating clones like Madelyne Pryor, make him one of the X-Men's more dangerous and twisted foes. The Madelyn Pryor storyline was recreated for X-Men '97, with Mister Sinister returning as a villain, and now he arrives at Mondo with a new 1/6 scale figure.

The X-Men 97 Mister Sinister figure features an impressive cel-shaded deco, bringing his appearance faithfully to life off the screen. Standing 12.5" tall, this big bad comes with a variety of swappable hands, extra portraits, and some blast effects. Mondo was sure to also include some fun X-Men Easter Egg accessories, including a DNA Floppy Disk, Mutant DNA Extraction Tentacle, and a Sinsister Shadow. Pre-orders are already live for $265, and Mister Sinister is limited to 1,250 pieces with a March 2026 release date.
