X-Men Classics (action figure)
- For the comic book series titled "X-Men Classic," see Classic X-Men.
X-Men Classics is the name of two different series of 6-inch X-Men action figures by Toy Biz.
The first line was released in 2004 and consisted of comic accurate sculpts and paint applications. The line went on hiatus after 1 wave.
The line was revamped in 2005 and lasted 3 waves. It featured several new sculpts of both completely original costumes and previously unproduced costumes with repaints of existing figures scattered throughout.
The revamped line also featured 4 new vehicles and a repainted Sentinel from Toy Biz's 1990s 5-inch X-Men line.
