McFarlane Toys is digging a bit deeper into the DC Comics roster with its latest DC Multiverse reveals, like bringing Aztek into the spotlight. Introduced in Aztek: The Ultimate Man #1 back in 1996, Uno was raised by the mysterious Q Society and trained from birth to become a destined hero who was meant to confront a looming world-ending threat. Armed with advanced technology masked as mystical armor, Aztek would blend science fiction and Aztek mythology into the DC Comics superhero landscape.

Now, just before the end of the DC Multiverse, Aztek is here to save the day with a new exclusive Red Platinum Edition figure. His addition changes things up from the usual Batman-heavy waves, giving collectors a more obscure but meaningful Justice League ally. The figure captures his classic DC Comics appearance quite nicely, with detailed armor sculpting and a bold deco of gold, black, teal, and white. He comes with interchangeable hands, a display stand, and a collectible art card. Pre-orders for the DC Comics Red Platinum Edition Aztek are already live at GameStop online and in-store for $26.99, with a May 2026 release.

After team-ups with Green Lantern™ and Batman™, Aztek briefly joined the JLA but died attacking the living planet Mageddon, the supposed second coming of Tezcatlipoca
