Mezco is pushing Red Death Edition as a more virulent and outbreak-focused take on Doc Nocturnal rather than a simple costume refresh. The official Mezco product page for Doc Nocturnal: Red Death Edition currently lists the figure at $135 on the waitlist as of Friday, July 24, 2026.
This is a live official product page, so here is what is actually confirmed.
Mezco's official listing confirms the following:
That immediately gives Red Death Edition a stronger infection-response identity than a more generic supernatural hunter setup. The plague framing is central to how the whole figure reads.
Red Death Edition feels distinct because Mezco built a full scenario around it. This is not just Doc Nocturnal with one extra accessory and a darker cloak. The fungal outbreak angle, the plague-hunter gear, and the chemical-warfare loadout all push the figure toward a more specialized mission profile.
That gives the edition a more aggressive and urgent shelf personality.
There is a reason the X-13 Chemical Cannon dominates the loadout. It instantly tells you that Red Death Edition is fighting contamination and infestation at a larger scale than a sidearm-and-knife figure would imply. Once that cannon is on the shelf, the whole figure feels less like a lone stalker and more like a hunter facing a spreading crisis.
That weapon is the clearest expression of the edition's identity.
Because this release includes smaller grenades, goggles, helmet pieces, claws, and effect parts in addition to the big cannon, it benefits a lot from deliberate storage. Red Death Edition is exactly the kind of figure that becomes harder to appreciate once the alternate parts are mixed together.
For keeping the smaller plague-hunter gear, hands, and FX parts organized between display changes, an acrylic modular case helps keep the loadout manageable.
For giving the cannon, cloak, and outbreak-hunter silhouette enough space to feel dramatic, a 4-step acrylic display stand for action figures helps build a better layered display.
The official Mezco listing shows it at $135.
The X-13 Portable Chemical Cannon is one of the most defining pieces in the set.
Two head portraits with hinged jaws.
Its outbreak-focused plague-hunter framing and chemical-warfare loadout give it a more specialized mission identity.
This release works because Mezco built Red Death Edition around a specific threat model instead of only a different costume. The cannon, outbreak tools, and plague-hunter framing all make the figure feel purposeful and more severe.
If you are looking at it on Friday, July 24, 2026, the biggest appeal is how fully Mezco committed to the idea that this version of Doc Nocturnal is built for escalation.
