From Vitruvian to Hero: The Next Evolution of Boss Fight Studio's 1:18 Scale Action Figures

For years, Boss Fight Studio’s Vitruvian H.A.C.K.S. line set the gold standard for 1:18 scale (3.75" / 4") action figure articulation, modular engineering, and customizability. Now, the entire platform takes its next major leap forward with Hero H.A.C.K.S.—establishing the new, upgraded platform standard for all future Boss Fight Studio universes while delivering 25+ points of articulation and premium modular engineering.

Whether you are securing pre-orders for the newly announced Hero H.A.C.K.S. Core Wave 1 (arriving August 2027), picking up current releases like Red Sonja, or adding iconic mounts like Frankie the Unicorn to your collection, here is your complete breakdown of what is shipping today and what is on the horizon.

Complete Cross-Line Compatibility: Display & Kitbash Without Limits

Even with advanced engineering and new tolerances, the fundamental promise of the H.A.C.K.S. (Highly Articulated Character Kit System) platform remains unchanged: endless modular customizability across your entire collection.

• Perfect 1:18 Scale Integration: New Hero H.A.C.K.S. figures stand at the exact same scale as classic Vitruvian figures. They look completely natural side-by-side in any display or custom diorama.
• Universal Accessory Swapping: Weapons, gear, and accessories are compatible across all 1:18 scale H.A.C.K.S. lines as well as other standard 1:18 scale action figures.
• Uncompromised Quality: Every figure—past, present, and future—is crafted with premium materials, durable joint articulation, and crisp paint applications built to look great together in any collection.

Zarko is the brains of the operation, using his superior intellect to scour star charts for mineral clusters that promise big deposits. Kur’lee is the muscle, as strong as he is dense.

Frequently Asked Questions for Collectors

When does Boss Fight Studio Hero H.A.C.K.S. Core Wave 1 release?

Can Hero H.A.C.K.S. figures ride Vitruvian Mighty Steeds?

Yes, 100%. All Hero H.A.C.K.S. releases are engineered with identical saddle-mount tolerances and inner-thigh articulation. Your figures will ride in-stock mounts like Frankie the Unicorn, Socks, Goldie, and the Kawiki Elk without requiring extra adapters or custom modifications.

What were the Ascension Vanguard and Accord Paladin figures?

The Ascension Vanguard and Accord Paladin were transitional Hero H.A.C.K.S. figures produced alongside late Vitruvian waves. They served as early testbeds for the refined peg tolerances, tighter ball joints, and updated plastic formulations that now form the baseline for Core Wave 1.

Are classic Vitruvian figures still in production?

Boss Fight Studio is gradually retiring original Vitruvian waves (such as Greek Mythology and early Fantasy) into "vault" status to focus manufacturing capacity on the Hero H.A.C.K.S. platform. Go Figment continues to stock remaining inventory across classic blanks, weapon kits, and character figures while supplies last.
