The 2022 horror film M3GAN surprised audiences by introducing a modern-day icon. The titular character, a robot initially designed for kids and later turned into a killer, has now been reinvented as a real-life doll. NECA announced the life-size M3GAN doll which can be purchased for $500.
Officially, fans can pre-order the doll from the NECA website for $494.99. The price is comparable with some of the Chucky replicas released by NECA and Trick or Treat Studios, so it’s likely going to be a similar quality. For fans that want their very own M3GAN, especially ahead of the sequel slated for 2025, this is certainly a good opportunity.
The description for the “fully posable, life-size replica,” mentions the following elements:
“This 1:1 replica is based on M3GAN’s on-screen appearance, duplicated from actual film-used digital files to be the most screen-accurate representation available. It has an articulated inner-armature, movable eyes, and synthetic hair (matched to screen-used hair samples). Her clothing is made from film-used patterns and includes a dress with inner lining, two striped sleeves, a bowtie, underwear, tights, and shoes. The fabric material of her dress matches an exact swatch of the dress from the movie, and her shoes are customized with details from the screen-used shoes.”

The size of the M3GAN doll is a full “55 inches tall” as well, so it’s clear that NECA wanted to try and have as detailed a replica as possible. At this point, it’s just another stepping stone for M3GAN to become a modern-day icon with the merchandise and film franchise to show it. M3GAN 2.0 is already scheduled to be released on May 16, 2025.
It’s certainly interesting to see how popular M3GAN has become following its initial release in 2022. With merchandise and a sequel on the way, we’ll have to see what’s next for the modern-day slasher villain. Stay tuned to ScreenGeek for any additional M3GAN updates as we have them.
